Hotness is with reason, sadness and ugliness fly together

Alien with disgusting appearance, as if he could smell the stinky deformation process, the cruel and bloody killing weapon... During the watching of "District Nine", I continued to experience stomach discomfort and the struggle of adrenaline secretion. So I think this is a good movie.
Compared with some of the comedies about aliens that I have seen before, this film is too heavy to let people know, and the documentary shooting method makes people feel that this kind of thing is happening around me. At the beginning of the article, everyone talked in a relaxed tone, so that you can't guess the tragic story that will happen later-at least for some people.
Then, we saw the process of "compulsory demolition" and realized what kind of person the protagonist is. He didn't feel much shame for what he did when he was performing the task, and he didn't feel that it was so great when he later fought bravely. That's right, he is an ordinary person, just like ourselves.
Some people say that this is like an enlarged version of "The Metamorphosis", I think this film is probably a step forward than "The Metamorphosis". That is, indifference to aliens can not only kill slowly, but also kill people at lightning speed without hesitation, killing people at any time, without any reason. This is exactly the problem facing human beings who are increasingly inclined to focus on technology and light on ideas. It is a manifestation of the gradual alienation of human beings. I am afraid that this is something that people who don't even think about the harmfulness of abortion and capital punishment will ever realize.
Humans are such a strange animal. They can come together because of a subtle idea and a few signs. At the same time, they show no mercy to the aliens that are easily divided. The more you think about it, the more terrifying it becomes. I am afraid that one day I will face the experience of the male protagonist. I know that it is definitely not a fantasy. Therefore, I read these words again and again, always reminding myself, and I hope to remind others-

they chased and killed communism in the first place. I did not speak because I was not a communist; then they hunted down the Jews, I did not speak because I was not a Jew; later they hunted down union members, I did not speak because I was not a union member; after that they hunted down Catholics Disciple, I did not speak, because I was a Protestant; in the end they rushed to me, but no one stood up to speak for me.
