"In 2009, Neill Blomkamp made his directorial debut with District 9, a giant special effects film, which also managed to be a clever allegory for apartheid and racism. Completed for $30 million, District 9 managed to perform on a blockbuster level, earning back $109 million in the US market alone. It connected with audiences and critics due to its complex characters, gorgeous effects (which still hold look fantastic), as well as a new style and view point not typically seen in American releases. The movie surprised many, quickly leading to Blomkamp being hailed as one of the “next big directors.”
