produced by Peter Jackson.

Sci-film, relatively low budget, partially shot in doc-style, no name actors or actresses. Has been called allegory.

Pretty unique, I think, as far as sci-fi films go. I don't know that I had ever thought about the scenario presented in the film.

Not a perfect film, not a film that punched me in the gut, but nevertheless, worth seeing, worth making the effort. Support inventive filmmaking that takes risks.

Note: very violent, not for your youngsters.

One of the best movies of the year and it's in my top 3. Not only are the effects great but the story is so intriguing and the acting is terrific. I would definitely see it again. It's best sci-fi films of the decade and one of the most entertaining movies of 2009.
