Comments from mainstream media have also come out

"A film with forward thinking and a fable about life. Martin Meyers used his camera to tell us a story about human nature and life, and Robert Downey Jr.'s performance sublimated this story"——《New York Times review

"It turns out that science fiction doesn’t have to be star-studded, big-budget, visually arresting, or downright entertaining."——《USA Today review

"A true, original sci-fi movie that hooks you from the beginning and keeps you wanting until the end."——《The Hollywood Reporter commented.

Colette Mankiewicz, a columnist and film critic for Entertainment Weekly magazine, gave"District 9" a long review

"People have always said that"Transformers" is the pinnacle of science fiction movies. If this pinnacle is just special effects, maybe it is true. But except for the special effects,"Transformers" can't surpass"District 9" in any aspect. In terms of shooting techniques, plot, and concept,"District 9" completely wins."

"Especially in terms of concept,"District 9" is certainly far superior to"Transformers" in terms of concept. It wins with plot and character storytelling, and its angles and perspectives are even more unique. It uses real documentary techniques to reveal human greed and desire, and it also Added touching colors of love"

"In"District 9", I saw too many problems that people dare not face up to in reality, such as racial discrimination, the gap between rich and poor, and the alienation of relationships between people. These problems are increasingly highlighted in our lives under the guidance of consumerism. Some problems are hidden deeper by the fast pace of urban life, but once the problem emerges, it will explode in an extreme form."

"I often say that the relationship between film and television and reality is an allegorical relationship, not a mirror or photographic relationship. It should be one-to-many, the finiteness of form versus the infinity of allegory."

"And District 9 is just that, it does it perfectly"

"Torturing human nature is a grand theme for any movie"

"Martin Meyers did not use gorgeous computer stunts in"District 9". Instead, he creatively combined documentary footage with narrative footage and shot the film in a pseudo-documentary style. The film does not render many big scenes, but uses a large number of line drawing-style medium shots and close-ups to show the cruel and ugly side of human violence in a form similar to a news broadcast, giving the audience a sense of facing violence directly, thus Hate violence, stay away from violence"

"I think many people can see that"District 9" follows the idea of ​​human mutation in Kafka's"The Metamorphosis", making the protagonist Wikus become the object of his disgust. After experiencing a series of unfortunate and even tragic encounters, the protagonist Wikus and the audience off-screen began to undergo psychological changes.——"

"Most of the audience, including me, started supporting the aliens. Humanity is lost in humans, but is reflected in aliens (acdc)"

"Martin Meyers used a very secret and natural method to mobilize everyone's emotions, making the audience take the initiative to stand in the opposite position to the humans in the movie, and feel disgusted with the humans in the movie, and then have reflections"

"This is the responsibility of art - to awaken conscience"

"Martin Meyers did a great job."

"Finally, what I want to say is that this is not just a movie, it is a"cautionary book"》"

James Cameron also publicly sang the praises of"District 9" in the media, which is rare

"In my opinion,"District 9" is a film with great momentum, profound plot and unique techniques. What's even more rare is that its investment is not high."

"Okay, I have to admit, I definitely can't do this." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Martin used a unique method to achieve the best effects with the least investment, and told a perfect story."

"The biggest shining point of this film is the psychological change of the protagonist Wikus - from hating prawns at the beginning and pulling out the tubes that hold the prawn eggs, to later believing that prawns are also life, and finally giving up the hope of recovery. Prawns escape from Earth……"

"When I saw Wikus sitting on the garbage heap holding up the metal rose, I was deeply shocked - the most beautiful time of human nature is precisely after his ugly mutation."

…………

Amid the crazy praise from all walks of life, the three-day box office of"District 9" in its first weekend was released.

It successfully pushed another science fiction film"Iron Man" directed by Martin from the first place.

Three days, 3,642 theaters, $8,744.

Such explosive results have also made film companies large and small start to think about it.

Why can such a non-commercial movie achieve such high box office?

The appeal of Martin Meyers?

Robert Downey Jr.’s appeal?

Or the movie itself?

…………

Robert Downey Jr. looked at the contract in front of him in a daze.

This is the contract for"Iron Man 2" signed by Marvel Pictures and him. The amount above is US$20 million.[]

"Is this for me?"He couldn't help but confirm it to his agent Jeff Raymond.

Jeff Raymond laughed,"Yes, it's for you. You are now a member of the 20 million club."

Jeff Raymond thought again about Martin's suggestion that he sign the man in front of him that day. It was really a great idea.

And Robert Downey Jr. also thought about Martin and what Martin said to him. He said,"Man, trust me, this movie will make you a millionaire."

Mom, Fake, what he said is right!!!
