Three Wise Men

MNU Agent: MNU! We’re serving eviction notices.
Alien: What is “eviction”?

Story evolves around aliens. Aliens who visited our blue planet. For a change they did not land on the American soil. Although first contact was forced on them they did not retaliate and obliterate the Earth. And for a change we were asked to help them.Intriguing plot and so I decided to watch it.

Egoistic nations of the Earth will help poor starving refugee aliens. Sure we will. Lock them in a slum in the middle of South Africa and act like you try to help them. Eventually gain their trust and win over their superior technology. Obliterate them as a thank you and as a notice to other aliens who might be passing by. Keep them in District 9, a slum near Johannesburg. If local population becomes tired of visitors reallocate them to District 10. There we will have total authority to do all the necessary expe…

And so it begins. MNU Agents storm the District 9 and start the relocation process. Lead by Wicus Van De Mere who is played by Sharlto Copley. He is really an unknown actor but from my perspective a rising star.  Movie will surely bring some fame to director Niel Blomkamp who was, with Terri Tatchell a screenplay writer. It was produced by Peter Jackson, you know the “Lord of the Rings” guy? Good part of the movie is shot as a documentary, the other part can be described as a sci-fi thriller full of action sequences and drama. Superb acting, good CGI, interesting setting.

Simple 8 of 10((what can I say I like sci-fi with good CGI)).

Movie depicts a lot of violence, blood, body parts, aliens and human scum. R Rated so I don’t recommend that you allow your kids to watch it. Unless they have good stomach. As always here is the trailer.

Academy award nomination for best performance by an actor in a leading role and best performance by an actress in a supporting role slipped away from rough Mickey Rourke, who portrays Randy ‘The Ram’ Robinson and slightly aged, but still sexy looking Marissa Tomei as sensual dancer Cassidy.

All I can say … shame. Because the movie is quite good. Drama describing a relationship between ‘The Ram’, his daughter Stephany played by Evan Rachel Wood, and wrestling. He is constantly hunted by choices he has made in his life, and Cassidy always has the cure for them. All is fine until one day, when he least expected falls down and ends in a hospital bed.

Movie was produced and directed by Darren Aronofsky whom we had the pleasure of meeting in the science fiction drama The Fountain. Movie is a constant flow of unknown feelings which tear The Ram apart. Constantly falling and trying to stand up until a supporting hand picks him up and helps him find his way.

It can easily be rated 9 of 10.

Bear in mind that this is a drama, a sport drama. Where people get hurt. Some blood, acted violence, 1 or 2 sex screens, drugs, harsh language, probably not suited for younger audience.  Have a peek at the trailer if you have not seen it and remember “The only place I get hurt is out there.”.
