9Nine(2009) In a postapocalyptic world, a small community of rag-doll robots hides in fear from dangerous machines out to exterminate them. But when a brave newcomer named 9 (voiced by Elijah Wood) joins the group, he inspires them to stand up and fight for their survival. Shane Acker directs this visually stunning animated film co-produced by Tim Burton, which also features the voices of John C. Reilly, Jennifer Connelly andMartin Landau.
- I gave it 3 stars.
Movie #33 "9" -- I still don't get why there have to be three movies called 9 this year (District 9, 9, and Nine, the musical is coming out soon), but anyway, this one can be distinguished from the others due to its creepy atmosphere. That's where it succeeds --- story, not so much --- too many battles, not enough character work for me, but I can see with its supreme creativity that it would have a big audience that would enjoy it -----just not my kind of film. I'll wait to say which "9" movie I liked the best, but so far "District 9" is out in front.
