Harry R Apr 1, 2018 hold on to me, mama.. Nine A bold risk to create a character driven feature in a musical genre and although the makers fails to pull it off as anticipated the hard work that went behind it is surely visible and plausible. As all Rob Marshall's feature consists, it too scores majestically on all musical numbers; from production design to art design and from choreography to all the beats. And the performance objective is relied upon Daniel Day Lewis who carries it off easily with the help of a great supporting cast like Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard and Judi Dench. Nine is easily adequate up till the musical genre is considered but as soon as the vision gets wide, it fails on craft due to a loosely placed script. See more

Abraham R Mar 3, 2018 Not very coherent or interesting. The music was repetitive and not all that memorable. Maybe watch it... just don’t expect much

Ron W Jan 31, 2018 Puoi avere un cast stellare pieno delle migliori attrici in circolazione, puoi avere la spettacolare regia di Rob Marshall, puoi addirittura avere Daniel Day-Lewis come attore protagonista, ma se hai una storia distante dal punto di vista emotivo, poco incisiva e piuttosto disordinata, con personaggi a cui risulta difficile affezionarsi, allora il risultato non rispecchia esattamente le aspettative. Nine è stata una delusione, che non riesce ad eguagliare altri musical dello stesso regista. Il problema principale non sono le coreografie o la regia in generale, che restano entrambe molto valide, e neanche il talento indiscusso degli attori. Il problema sono state le scelte narrative convenzionali che pervadono in tutta la durata del film. Ho trovato le scene di ballo poco funzionali alla narrazione, come se fossero scene staccate non appartenenti allo stesso film. Il risultato generale è un'opera pesante e caotica, che non coinvolge, non appassiona, e che in fin dei conti ha ben poco da dire. See more

Poe M Oct 29, 2017 Thankfully, I'm not the only one who finds this so-called "excellent dance musical movie" a dull, stupid and not interesting entertainment. See more

Ron S Jan 13, 2017 For the longest time Rob Marshall's work has been synomous with musical's. Chicago, Caberet, Into the Woods and even this 2009 musical, Nine. Marshall brings together several of hollywoods sexiest and most talented actresses. Marion Cottilard, Penelope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Fergie, Kate Hudson, Sophia Loren, Judi dench along with one of the best method actors in the world Daniel Day Lewis make up this deep character film set in the beautiful city in Italy. Although not perfect the film still served up to be a decent flick in the filmography of the Oscar nominee. Guido Contini is an Italian film director who's life is unfulfilled and without purpose, at least he thinks so. As he prepares to embark on his next film project he finds him self dealing with the complex relationships in his life. Some of these relationships are with his wife, his agent, his mistress, his muse and his mother. The story wasn't well structured and needed more work. There was more musical showcases than actual movie storytelling. Although they were fantastic and oozed erotica too many of those can usually confuse people and make it hard to keep up with whats going on. I will say that it was at least a 3 out 5 star film meaning that is still a enjoyable flick to watch Penelope cruz's performance was very good and filled with vibrancy. Her singing was most impressive as was all the girls. Marion cottilard was also very good here. she played a key role here in the story and especially for guido's psyche. This was without a doubt the sexiest I've ever seen from all of these actresses's. Daniel day lewis was sensational here! to be able to pull off an Italian accent and sing in that very accent requires incredible talent and dedication! this is one of his more tame roles but he still put in the work to fully place himself in an Italian filmmakers shoes Great art direction and costuming it has a under rated emphases on fashion here and everyone looked good in there outfits. Finally Nine had some impressive cinematography with decent editing. If you are at least a fan of any of these actors in the film I'd say its still worth checking out. See more

Abraham M Jan 6, 2017 Grade - C- It's by no means a complete disaster, but 'Nine' is rather disappointing. Its got moments of greatness and some fantastic performances, and I feel like there's a good movie in there somewhere. However, it's undeniably slow at points and many of the musical numbers don't work, leaving me slightly perplexed and disappointed. See more
