Description:
From visionary filmmakers Tim Burton (The Nightmare Before Christmas) and Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted) and Academy Award®-nominated director Shane Acker comes this visually stunning and original epic adventure. In the final days of humanity, a dedicated scientist gives the spark of life to nine of his creations. The world has turned into an unrecognizable landscape of machines and spare parts, but this group of nine finds that if they band together, their small community might just be able to change the course of history. Featuring the voice talents of Elijah Wood, John C. Reilly, Jennifer Connelly and Crispin Glover, it’s a thrilling, suspenseful story critics call “richly imaginative.” (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone)
Amazon.com:
Nine small rag dolls, stitched together from burlap and clock workings and lenses, are all that stands in the way of the world being overtaken by the Machines. Actually, as 9 begins, it looks like the Machines have already had their way with Earth: this is one of those post-apocalyptic landscapes without life, hope, or sunlight. Clearly 9 director Shane Acker is willing to make an animated film that doesn't soar with Disney colors or Pixar cheer--in fact, main characters are killed off before the movie's halfway through. Our hero is 9 (voiced by Elijah Wood), so dubbed for the number on his back; after awakening to very confused consciousness, he bumps into other puppet survivors, such as the imperious 1 (Christopher Plummer), the warrior-like 7 (Jennifer Connelly), and the one-eyed comic sidekick 5 (John C. Reilly). They do battle with the Machines in a relentless (and eventually monotonous) series of battles, and the exploding hardware and endless warfare has a tendency to crowd out whatever character development might have been set up in the opening minutes. No question the movie's design is impressive, and the characters have a wonderfully expressive quality at first. But at some point it seems the Machines have taken over the moviemaking here, with tedious results. --Robert Horton

9 was one of the worst movies I've paid money to see on the big screen, and I'm glad I only devoted 80 minutes to it. Even so, it took every bit of will power I had in me to not walk out of the theater.
Granted, I didn't hate it... it didn't offend me, although I felt gypped. The animation is not as mind-blowing as people have said. At least, no more mind-blowing than anything Pixar has put out.
The biggest problem with 9 is the writing. Most of the lines in the film are ... Read More

Its quite interesting how 9 little things can do so much, the story is quite toutching and entertaining, it was kind of shore but overall great story!

Released on 9/9/09, 9 is computer animated film about 9 rag dolls, the sole "survivors" of a war-ravaged alternate universe, given life through a magical talisman invented by an aged scientist. Termed "stitchpunk" by its fans, it blends the aesthetics of a steampunk world (resembling WWII-era Western Europe) with science fiction, action, and some mysticism/ancient metaphysics. At 80 minutes, it is short.
Yes, the CG-work is absolutely fantastic and masterfully crafted, but what about ... Read More

This was a great movie that kind of came and went in a flash in theaters.
The tone is dark and apocalyptic but the story is engaging with enough fantasy elements to keep the wonder factor high.
9 revolves around an world where a ruthless dictatorship straight out of 1984 has unleashed thinking machines that have touched off a war with humanity. During which, apparently, all of mankind has been wiped out. However one scientist was able to create a set of dolls and infuse them ... Read More

WARNING: I'm about to spoil a message at the ending of the movie, 9. I've moved my old review hear because the theatrical release site got deleted.
The scene when the souls of 1, 2, 5, 6 and 8 leave to the sky and burst into the clouds to make it rain, you would see omoebas forming from the inside of the rain drops. That simply is telling you 1, 2, 5, 6 and 8 are starting evolution and life all over again. Its an amusing scene to watch and intriguing. Makes you think for yourself.
