Zachary FenellReview: Nine (2009)

This past weekend I went to go see “Nine” with a few friends. My one friend was really excited to go see the Tim Burton film and I thought “Nine” seemed kind of intriguing. When we left the movie theatre we were all disappointed. “Nine” was a movie lacking a lot of the basic elements. The characters didn’t have names, just numbers. There was very little character growth. The plot was simply to “kill the machine”. The runtime for the movie was only a little over an hour.
With that said “Nine” did have a few rare highlights with one of them being the opening scene. At the beginning there is no dialogue which makes the sounds, such as the wind blowing, that much more important. “Nine” also had the start to what could have been a deep philosophical movie. Conflict exists between Nine and One because Nine questions while One doesn’t. Sadly, this really doesn’t develop much more during the film.
Overall, “Nine” is not a very interesting movie. If you haven’t seen the movie yet, don’t worry about it, you are not missing much.
