BrianSez's Review

Summary - Great 4.0

D9 is a great sci-fi thriller! Much more involved and thought provoking than your run-of-the-mill humans vs. aliens movie, D9 purposefully sets things up in a way that you would think that would be the obvious, but then things get interesting and more complicated as we consider how the dark side of the human race would face unwelcome yet innocent inhabitants . A fantastic blend of drama, thriller, science-fiction and action will be sure to give you a prawn-y good time!

Acting - Great 4.0

Unknown Sharlto Copley is actually darn good – first coming across as sort of a dweeby dude, but who transforms in to action/savior stud.

Film - Great 4.0

Loved the story, loved the thought provoking angle that turns the same-old, same-old in to something novel. Great action, a healthy dose of blood-and-gore, yet not overly done. Nice use of special effects that impress at the same time as being balanced with more traditional shoot-em-up action.

Edge - Risqué 2.5

Reality - Supernatural 3.9
