I loved the movie. The main character, Guido lives through his internal mirage of sensations and visions, he allows his inner experience to create a wall around him, shielding him from the pain and f... rom the emotional experience of the people that surrounds him in the outer world. He can\'t resist surrendering to the creations of his mental and emotional inner experience, leaving everyone that loves him or needs him behind. The question here is, is he wrong or is he right? If he is so lucky as to have a rich soul that demands all of his consciousness, should we blame him for that ? isn\'t that the very thing that makes him so irresistible? should we just pity the unsuspecting women that fall under his spell unaware that he will never see them as they see them? He does appreciate their beauty and their souls, but his loyalty remains with the call of his own soul. A much more powerful and alluring mistress that tolerates no competition. The visuals are stunning and the music is great, I would love to see a classic myth brought about in this style by the director of Nine. Full Review
NINE, it's celebration of being woman that's for every women like us so celebrate ourselves!
You really have to pay attention on how the movie is interpreted by the songs the women sing, and then you're in. Kate Hudson, in partincular, did an extraordinary performance. Who knew? Especially... , if you rent it, then you can see the actual recordings and see the extraordinary work and peerformances, and the meaning behind the songs. This is not just a movie for ******************* a story that's told really well through song and dance. I rented it and watched it over and over again. The more I watched it, the more I was enthralled. This isn't AVATAR (basically popular bacause of special effects). This is a really good story told really well through music. I think it's right up there with "Fiddler on the Roof." Full Review
The movie Nine is based on Frederico Fellini's life, as it is a remake of 8/12 (9 follows 8 1/2). This remake is a musical version and departs from 8 1/2 in many ways, but is essentially the same. I t... hink it is better than 8 1/2. Fellini made one great film - La Strada. Most of his more celebrated films attracted and exploited viewer interest by using bizarre characters or situations, like rock stars who dress in strange ways (KISS). Cheap theatrics. I believe Nine is better than 8 1/2 was. Fellini was a passionate, self-centered film maker who experienced early success, married Giulietta Masina, who starred in his early films, and made her life miserable with his selfish pleasure pursuits and time spent away from her in film making. This inability to balance his priorities led to disorganization and a lack of focus in his life from which he never fully recovered in elevating his work. 8 1/2 tells this story, but Nine tells it better. Unless you like musicals this film is not for you, in spite of a great cast, excellent performances, songs, and dances, and highly skilled direction. Full Review
This movie could have been better. I felt like I paid to watch a made for T.V. movie.
