NICE MOVIE

In faux-documentary style, it tells the story of how a vast spaceship was stranded in the sky above Johannesburg 30 years ago. Its starving passengers - creatures called "prawns" were forced to live in District 9 and survive by rummaging through garbage for scraps of food. Now, when the patience over the aliens has run out, Multi-National United decides to sent a representative, Wikus van de Merve (played by Sharlto Copley) to negotiate with the aliens.

Hello, would you please sign this agreement form?Seriously, would you approach an alien to ask for signatures?

MNU's main purpose is to make profits out of the aliens' awesome weaponry, however the activation of these weapons require the aliens' genetic materials, thus, when Wikus contracts a virus that changes his DNA and subsequently turns him into half alien (his left arm is now a "prawn" arm), he becomes the most hunted man in the world. Now, there's only one place for him to hide - District 9.

Overall, this is one of the movies I walked into almost completely oblivious to what I was about to see. Didn't read the storyline or watch the trailer beforehand as I was told that this movie is somewhat similar to Cloverfield (Motion sickness, anyone?). Well, the movie turned out to be much better than what I've expected - any movies with touching elements are a yes to me, in this case, the whole friendship and sacrificial aspects shown by Wikus and Christopher =(

細細沙砾海摩挲，悠悠孤影倍惆悵，

晚晚淚趟思傷盡，宵宵黯然嘗憂傷。

今晚星光不再閃爍，

沉溺的心情避開密不通風的温室，

獨自徜徉在沙灘上，

聆聽浪潮的心声緩緩而退，

徐徐海風輕拂憂傷的臉頰，

試圖安撫沮喪的心靈，

回首曾在這白沙淨土定下的承諾，

在白細沙砾上留下相依的腳印，

這是深深印證相戀的痕跡呀，

可是依然被无情岁月慢侵蚀。

我迎著海風呐喊你名字，

望能喚起那絲微妙的感覺，

直到聲腔沙啞無力續撐，

而跪坐沙灘上喟然長嘆，

無奈你銷聲匿跡的身影早已離去，

美好相聚的時光也旋即閃逝，

我仰望怃然的夜空，

悄悄把愛意的思緒，

融入湿润润的眼朦裏。

我是否該親手埋葬，我們那褪色的承諾，望能滋潤了這片乾枯的土地，還會再根隨萌芽，都與我無關，空氣中至少還留下我存在的祝福。
