Warning: Nausea-inducing jerky camera throughout

Written: Aug 15 '09 (Updated Aug 15 '09)
  • User Rating: Disappointing
  • Bang For The Buck
Pros:Don't know - too nauseated to stay.
Cons:Nausea-inducing camera-work on the same level as "Cloverfield."  Avoid this movie if you're susceptible.

My main purpose for writing here is to warn those out there who, like me, were brought to their knees by "Cloverfield" or "Vantage Point."  15 minutes into "District 9" I realized the hand-held camera shots were really doing a number on me.  After 20 minutes, I was out of there.

I'm tired of shelling out $10 to watch a movie guaranteed to make 25% of the audience vomit because of the shaky hand-held camera shots.

I propose that theaters start posting a logo (something reminiscent of "Cloverfield" would work) next to those movies that feature this kind of camera-work.

Recommended: No


Movie Mood: None of the Above
Viewing Method: Other
Worst Part of this Film: Everything
