Amazing story and though it's animated it's not a film for kids. Very serious and very touching. Loved it.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie but I was so touched and loved every gut wrentching min of this movie. My teenage son and his girlfriend... wasn't as thrilled but I thought it was fantastic and will be buying this on dvd.. Full Review

Any optimism in 9, which is bound to try the fortitude of meeker children, feels hard-won. It actually ends in a bittersweet mystery.Full Review

Wesley Morris
Boston Globe

Storyboarded with precision, and enhanced with a resonant score by Deborah Lurie, Acker's handsome, feature-length 9 is, for all its visual flights of fancy, grounded in an apocalypse-proof message graspable by any schoolchild.Full Review

Entertainment Weekly

The best reason to see it is simply because of the creativity of its visuals. They're entrancing.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Taking your very small child to this movie is only a slightly better idea than a trip to "The Final Destination." With that warning out of the way, this action adventure is a big treat for more mature animation and science-fiction fans and a triumph for the young director.Full Review

Peter Hartlaub
San Francisco Chronicle

It’s a perfectly functional, fairly scary kids’ film, with plenty of craft and creativity to keep adults occupied. But with a story as sophisticated as its visuals, it could have been much more.Full Review
