Review of 9 (2009) by Bryank — 11 Sep 2009

9 is by far one of the weakest films of this year. The plot of this film involves a scientist who designs a robotic machine which creates multiple robot war machines which kills off humanity. The same scientist puts his soul into nine robots who all come together.

With its plot this film has an intresting plot and has the characters. The film's most shocking moment is rather subtle in which the eighth robot sits on a dismembered human hand which is rather scary in its design.

However this only briefly helps the film. The film's most difficult problem is it starts at a fast pace and only slows down by the thirty-five minute mark. By around one hour into the film the main enemy robot is killed in a false moment and when it appears the films over the machine awakens in a sequence in which the song "Somewhere over the Rainbow" is playing over one of the robots running from the machine.

This scene is both effective and ridiculous in it's design. The characters are divided into several types, heroic, greedy, and cowardly, which makes the film somewhat evolve.
