NINE

I really do not even know what to say or where to begin. I was so confused about where the story was going that half way through the movie I gave up on trying to understand the film that was very slow and got popcorn because I needed something to spice things up. The music and dancing was wonderful but the rest of the movie was nothing to write home about because when I put it together with the music and dancing it felt like it was going nowhere. It was obvious to me that the star Guido Contini (Daniel Day Lewis) was going to make the entire movie into a movie of some sorts but it was too slow of a process. I thought it would have been better if he had at least discovered that earlier in the film it would have made it more interesting to see how people would react to that than see him deal with his own life struggle slowly and painfully in my opinion. Everyone did an outstanding job with their musical numbers but aside from that I was bored during the film. Not my favorite musical movie I would pick Chicago or Moulin Rouge over this film but it is fun to see the dancing and singing. It is what I would like to call a renter.

Grade C movie.
