Anyone watched this? It's getting rave reviews. I'm curious to hear from someone here if it's worth the watch.

Very good chance I'm going to go watch this one at the movies. Looks really good.
Awesome flick, didn't rely on any famous actors and actually had plots.

Good movie. Lots of gore and in your face brutality.
I found the plot very lacking though, a lot of unanswered questions leaving the theater and plot holes that didn't make sense. Hopefully they are explained in the next one.

I saw this last night. Wow! Technically amazing. Non stop impossible action scenes and the realism of things that are simply impossible was incredible. My wife said she found it disturbing and the action made her dizzy.

I just got in from watching this. Didn't really know what to expect.
Was different is the best I can say.
First half of the movie goes into character development. This is something that is very different from the classical hollywood movies nowadays (aka Transformers II). I thought the movie was going slow at first and then picked up surprisingly nice. The end was great. Man they are getting good with CGI.
I gave it a 4. Came very close to a 5, but 4 for me.

How much better would this film have been if they developed the plot more and explained a few things better?? I assume they did this to leave things open for the second film. I hope or I will rage.

cool movie, i'd watch it again!
it would be cool if they made a sequel to it
Great movie, I gave it 5/5. Lots were left unexplained but if you think hard enough listen carefully, you can fill in the holes. I'm very impressed with the director, who came came from our own Vancouver film school. This is pretty much his directorial debut since he was suppose to do Halo.

Most enjoyable movie I've seen in ages.
I wouldnt say it was the best as far as how smart and well executed the plot was etc. But on an entertainment level Id give it full marks. I enjoyed the whole thing and didnt want it to end. Best movie since Dark Knight or 300 IMO.

super film! left secrets open for district 8 and 10
bump for this awesome piece of work. It is a style of movie by itself. A refreshing novelty to the box office. Would watch again, 4.5/5

I highly enjoyed this film. Best alien movie since Alien/Aliens.
I really hope they come out with another one, which hopefully explains some things in more detail. If they do, let's pray they maintain their integrity and don't go all Hollywood and ruin it.
On a related note, there's a lot of retarded people commenting on this film on IMDB. Some of these morons are even complaining about it's "racism". Unfortunately these people are contributing to the gene pool.... sad really.
I find it hard to imagine how it would feel to be that stupid.

I watched it last night, I gave it a 4, would have been a five but it was just missing that extra something, and I didnt like main character lol
Watched it today. Was pretty good.
Better ending would have been nice, but I guess that's to leave it open for another one.
