DISTRICT 9

@roninarc: Went to District 9 with high expectations and was disappointed. That being said, I’m already saying District 10 is must see.

@frumpa: District 9: Dark & disturbing; not a “first contact” type movie but about the evils of humanity. Good action 20 min near end.

@beth1170: “District 9”. Very funny at times. Very serious at times. Very violent at all times. Weird, different, and wonderful!

@salkken: A million aliens living in a walled slum is District 9’s sci-fi twist. The film shows the grim effects of a dual society.

OTHER FLICKS

@vaughnchicago: The Time Traveler’s Wife was a sentimental tearjerker that made me wish I had stock in Kleenex. Where was the happiness & joy

@kathyduan: “Spread.” “would you like to shave my papya?” enough said. worst movie i have ever seen. a new low for even ashton kutcher

@tracyswartz: just saw 500 days of summer at the davis because #cubs flub. the movie was like bridget jones’ diary w/o the overeating.

@thehappyemo: Gi Joe? Mindless but great.Baronness?Nice leather we’re having today, eh?Tommy from Third Rock as Cobra Commander? Awesome!

@submom: Ponyo Fans of Miyazaki will luv it though not the best intro to his work. Dubbing not 2 painful bc few words. Luv Fey’s mom!

@alarge: Paper heart is a cute endearing filmabout love of all kinds if you can get past the fact that the actors look like they’re 16
