Review of Nine (2009) by Philippe D — 10 Dec 2011
"Nine" tells the story of a film director by artistically depicting his interactions with the women that impacted his life (mainly ones with whom he had affairs). Each girl sings her own song to tell her significance, giving the movie a slightly disjointed feel; however, each song is so creative and artistic that this movie is just fun to watch.
I love Kate Hudson's song. You can tell that she was having SO MUCH FUN when they filmed her scene! Daniel Day-Lewis is amazing as Guido and his Italian accent is spot-on. Penelope Cruz will leave you absolutely breathless.
Like, seriously. You won't be able to breathe until about 5 minutes after her song is done. But in the end, Marion Cotillard steals the show, shining brighter than the rest of this star-studded cast.
Her eyes are filled with the heartbreak that her character suffers. You can tell that it's a great movie when Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, and Sophia Loren aren't even really mentioned in my review.
Though it isn't the best musical I've seen, I enjoyed it and would see it again.
