Rajon N9. Район N 9.

Просмотрел кинофильм Район номер 9. В целом фильм понравился.

 

Викус Вандемерве - главный герой кинофильма Космический корабль пришельцев завис над городом Йоханнесбург.

Фильм немного попахивает просттячковым сюжетом. Это чувствуется в определенных моментах кинофильма. Способ заполучения топлива из MNU очень эффективен.

Пришельцы выглядят как Малюски. Об этом заявляет и сам Викус Вандемерве.

Викус Вандемерве очередной обычный штатный работник офиса MNU. И по совместительству заботливый муж и немного простачек. Отец жены Викуса Мандеверве крайне не доволен тем, что его дочь вышла замуж за такого идиота, как Викус Вандемерве. Хоть он это и скрывает от жены, но не скрывает от самого Викуса. Позже это скажется и в предательстве и клевете на Викуса Мандеверве. Организация MNU занимается контактами с пришельцами и пытается поддержать связь между человечеством и пришельцами Малюсками.

В Йоханнесбурге создан специальный Район N9. Это территория, охраняемая MNU для временного проживания пришельцев малюсков. Район N9 – это район, в котором поселили пришельцев малюсков обессиленных на своем корабле, который остановился над Йоханнесбургом. Двери корабля не открывались более 3 месяцев, человечество предприняло попытки сделать контакт с пришельцами малюсками первым. Они прорезали дверь в корабль и эвакуировали на землю в Йоханнесбург в Район №9 обессиленных пришельцев. Местные жители восприняли такие действия не адекватно. Они не желали видеть присутствия рядом с собой пришельцев малюсков. Как сообщается в интервью работников MNU, пришельцы малюски по какой-то причине лишились своих пришельцев руководителей. То есть остались одни рабочие пчелы. Они не знали, что им делать, они были в растерянности. Люди враждовали с пришельцами малюсками, а те в свою очередь с людьми. Да кстати любимая еда пришельцев малюсков – кошачий мясной корм. Со временем пришельцы малюски начали размножаться. Способ размножения пришельцев очень оригинален.

 

После адаптации пришельцы малюски стали себя вести агрессивно. В Район №9 было направлены войска MNU для транспортировки пришельцев малюсков на другую территорию, что бы обеспечить более полный контроль над пришельцами. Было принято решение перебросить пришельцев в другой лагерь, за город и создать новый Район № 9. Возглавить операцию по транспортировке пришельцев из Района N9 пришлось Викусу Вандемерве. Этому поспособствовал отец жены Викуса. После этой операции Викус Вандемерве должен был бы получить повышение от MNU. Многие сотрудники MNU не воспринимали всерьез этого человека, некоторые даже задумывались, как он сюда попал. Поэтому появляется обыкновенное желание видеть в главном герое фильма Район номер 9 не простачка – идиота, а серьезного человека. В этом я также вижу очередной ляп режиссера. В процессе развития сюжета мы видим, как изменяется не только физическая внешность главного героя, но и его характер и желание вернуть все как было прежде.

Однако повышения Викус Вандемерве получил, но это уже был не тот Викус Вандемерве.

Жена Викуса Мандеверве в Фильме Район N9 вела себя растеряно. Она не знала, кому доверять. Или своему отцу или своему меняющемуся мужу.

Операторская работа Район N 9 ведется от лица телерепортера. Это очень эффектный метод подачи материала. Вы смотрите не кинематографический фильм Район № 9, а телевизионную передачу про Район N9 и пришельцев малюсков с Викусом Вандемерве в главной роли. Это не фильм Район N 9, а шоу и интервью с сотрудниками MNU и важными персонами правительства, а также интервью с родными Викуса Вандемерве. Операторская камера фильма Район №9 живая, все репортажи ведутся как бы с плеча оператора. Такие репортажи в основном снимают в горячих точках телерепортеры. Этим Режиссер хотел показать, что Район N9 расположенный в Йоханнесбурге - это очередная горячая точка на земле, в которой нет мира и за которой наблюдает весь земной шар.

Музыка навевает арабские мотивы, к фильму подходит и во время просмотра не мешает, а создает специфическую атмосферу.

Сюжетная линия развивается по классической схеме. Начинается все с намеком на фильм ужасов. Затем все это перерастает в фантастический боевик. А в конце, как в американской сказке, развиваются события спасения жертвенности и жалости. Видны ляпы режиссера в некоторых моментах, наивные детские ходы сюжета заставляют мозг усомниться в действии происходящего. Иногда возникает желание, будто смотришь фильм для детей школьников.

Спецэффекты проработаны хорошо и приятно лицезреть механические средства пришельцев малюсков. Оружие пришельцев также проработано на уровне. К спецэффектам, в общем, никаких претензий.

Стоит ли посмотреть Район N9? Ответ ДА стоит. Вы получите массу удовольствия от картины.

Discovering District 9 in Alive in Joburg

District 9 has been on IGP's radar for some months now ever since we heard about this Peter Jackson/Neil Blomkamp movie about aliens that land in South Africa. For those of you that are only just beginning to hear about this relatively small budget sci-fi movie and are wondering what it's all about, check out the short film that District 9 is based on called Alive in Joberg.

Judging from the trailer to District 9, there's a lot of Alive in Joberg in this movie. The aliens look very similar in design, if more high tech, with their squid like faces. The alien's faces are strangely pixilated through much of the trailer as with the short movie.

The aliens are called Poleepkwa and are essentially stranded on Earth with dilapidated ships and no way to get home. The aliens live in ghettos where they struggle for basic needs such as food, water and medical attention. Interestingly, at least in Alive in Joberg and hopefully in District 9 too, the aliens have bio-hazard suits allowing them to lift heavy objects, seemingly with their minds.

Despite the fact that they don't seem to have any way to defend themselves with their ships, I'm pretty certain that those bio-hazard suits will come in handy with the inevitable conflicts with the locals. Speaking of the locals, both movies seem to be using a lot of hand-held, documentary style camera work, interviewing the locals who maintain that life was much better before they arrived.

However, the trailer seems to suggest that the angle will focus more on an evil corporation, MNU, who is controlling the situation with the Poleepkwa, to gain access to weapons, of course. Isn't that what it always comes down to?

Basically, from what we've seen of the trailer and Alive in Joberg, the movie will have telekinesis, alien apartheid and evil corporations. What more could you ask of an original summer blockbuster?

Film Review - District 9 (2009)

BOTTOM LINE: "District 9" wins big points for originality, execution and its decidedly risky story and execution, given its pitch as a mainstream film. The film however overstays its welcome and descends into typical Hollywood convention, action and noise by the end.

THE GOOD: There is much to praise in this film by young upcoming director Neil Blomkamp. With oscar-winner Peter Jackson in his producing corner, Blomkamp has been able to turn a $30 million film in to one that rivals films with three times that budget. He has also been given free reign to execute the film in whatever manner he saw fit, which is again, quite rare in Hollywood filmmaking unless you are one of the top directors, least of all on one of your first features. "District 9" tells its story through a combination of documentary and hand-held action techniques, and coupled with the film's risky story which sees alien refugees trying to co-exist with humans in a very apartheid-like society in South Africa, you have in effect an arthouse film pitched for the mainstream market. The film is not afraid to use its science-fiction context to discuss racial issues, delving in to the darker aspects of human behaviour. The apartheid motif is about as subtle as a sledge-hammer, with the aliens taking the place of blacks (the aliens are referred to as "prawns" by the human characters), although it does allow many moments of social and political commentary that give food for thought. This is borne out in the character of Wikus (Sharlto Copley) who is in charge of moving the aliens out of District 9 and away from the human population who have grown fed up with their presence. When he is exposed to a piece of alien biotechnology, he suddenly finds himself transforming in to one of the aliens and is forced to seek refuge in District 9; he tries to find a way to transform himself back in to a human while the agency he used to be in charge of hunts him down in order to conduct their own experiments on him. The cast is filled with unknowns who do a particularly good job with their performances, particularly Sharlto Copley who not only sees his character transform from human to alien, but also from a coward to a reluctant hero. Although this is a film with aliens and is set within the realm of science-fiction, "District 9" is really a commentary about how ugly humans can be. The filmmakers deserve their kudos for making such a risky story within the realms of mainstream filmmaking. Neil Blomkamp in particular has shown a remarkable amount of skill as director in bringing to life this rather unusual story.

THE BAD: Despite its unique approach, "District 9" does manage to stumble in to typical conventions, particularly in its second hour. By this point, there is so much noise, explosions, bullets and people being blasted by alien weapons that it all becomes tedious and over the top. The conventions are a plenty, including the smart and cute alien kid, the object of pursuit (ie The MacGuffin) which is the alien biotechnology, the fish out of water story where an oppressor comes to sympathise with those he oppressed, and a flimsy fugitive-esque chase story. All of these elements are not new and stand out as a little disappointing in an otherwise unique genre film that manages to all but exceed its origins. The character of Wikus is difficult to follow; he is such a coward in the first hour that you do not feel that much sympathy for him. Even in the second hour when he has that moment where he does not think of himself but he puts the fate of his new alien friend ahead of his own, there is still not much to sympathise with, even when we get to the last shot of Wikus, now fully transformed in to alien, constructing a flower which he sends to his wife. In the end, "District 9" manages to overstay its welcome by about twenty minutes, and largely that is due to too many action sequences in the climax which make the whole endeavour tedious rather than engaging and thrilling.

What Happens When Aliens Live Among Us? - "District 9" Movie Review

In "District 9", an alien spaceship has come to rest over Johannesburg, South Africa. After an extended period of time waiting for something to happen which never does, the government decides to drill into the spaceship to try and make "first contact". In doing so, they discover that the aliens are malnourished and without a way to go home. The government decides to build a camp for the aliens, known as District 9, to house the aliens until they decide a better course of action. After 20 years, the citizens of Johannesburg have had enough of the aliens and want them moved. It becomes the charge of MNU (Multi-National United) to move them to a new home, 200km outside of Johannesburg. This is when the main story line of the movie takes place.

Wikus Van De Merwe (Sharlto Copley) is given the assignment of leading the task force to give eviction notices to all of the aliens (derogatorily known as "prawns" for both looking like prawns from the sea and also for being bottom-feeders). In the process, Wikus becomes exposed to an alien chemical and begins a transformation. The plot of the movie then centers around Wikus trying to reverse this transformation versus MNU trying to stop Wikus from doing so.

"District 9" brings to light a couple of moral dilemmas faced by the characters. The first, and much more subtle situation is a couple references to "human rights organizations" and their role in the situation in South Africa. They claim that some of the living conditions of the prawns are "human rights violations" and that the process of moving the aliens must be done in accordance to the code of "human rights". This brings about the question of whether or not a species of beings such as the "prawns" actually have rights, and whether or not they are equal to or better than those of human beings. Can an alien really have human rights?

The second and most-important moral issue raised in the film is at what cost is one willing to stand behind his or her own set of ethical rights. Is there a point where the negative impacts of standing firm in your beliefs is too much, causing you to go against them? Wikus is faced with exactly this sort of dilemma, when he must decide whether or not to help Christopher Johnson (the main alien in the movie), and in the process risk possible harm upon the human race.

Where "District 9" really excels is in creating characters that you feel emotional attached to. As the viewer, you may start to care for Wikus and Christopher, and become enthralled in their plight to help each other. When the moral dilemmas are raised, as the viewer you too begin to ask yourself the same questions. Another success in this film is the use of a different filming technique. For almost the first 45 minutes of the film, and then again at various points throughout the conclusion of the film, the story is told through interviews from after the events that the plot of the film depicts as well as video footage leading up to the actual exposure of Wikus to the chemical. In doing this, you are able to get a clearer picture of the back story of the characters and events that are about to occur.

"District 9" does have a couple flaws though. Although the filming techniques are new and unique, when the first 45 minutes pass and you are back to following the main characters without the emphasis on security footage, you have to ask yourself, where does this footage come from? Is this what really happened to Wikus (because we can't be completely sure as we can be with the home footage style of Wikus and MNU in the beginning)? Another spot that creates some confusion is in the decisions behind some of the characters actions. At times, they rapidly change their minds on huge issues with little hint as to why they did. For example, after the transformation begins, Wikus's wife calls him and essentially tells him she cannot love him anymore. Then, in the next scene, she's calling again and telling him how much she still loves him. In addition, up until a certain point, Wikus is all about saving himself, and then all of a sudden becomes self-sacrificing, and it is unclear where this transformation came from.

However, as with many good films, these flaws become minor and can be over-looked in the grand scheme of the movie. As a whole, "District 9" is a great film, not just a great science-fiction film. It is action-packed, but also delivers a great story which raises many questions in the viewers. A movie I would highly recommend seeing.
