Movie 9 review

            "We had such potential. Sudden promise. But we squandered our gifts, and so number 9 I am creating you. Our world is ending, but life must go on." Said the Scientist/creator in a presentation for his 9 handmade doll like creations. The movie 9 has a powerful meaning that the director Shane Acker wanted to emphasize to his audience. His point of view I think is when powerful machines arise or created, life becomes more like on a string. The movie is based on the creation 9 for a reason, 9 is the savor of the characters to ending the turmoil. The movie released on September 9, 2009 for marketing purposes emphasizing the title 9. The premiers were illustrated on Facebook to enhance excitement prior of release. The film was rated PG-13 due to the cartoon like characters, but with violent war like influence. The scientist created the B.R.A.I.N. or fabrication machine, a spider like creation intended for good purposes to mark new technology. 1 is the oldest creation and leader of the pack. His mentality is to avoid the machines and live in the Anglo-Saxon church as refugee. As the creation advanced in technology the little humanoids evolve in structure, mental strength and shape. 


Ninja warrior 7
           
            Through the film, 9 gets to meet the rest of his fellow creations and when in despair, encounters 7 the "Ninja" the only female creation. "To live is to survive", is what the producers emphasize, that the creations are faced to coincide with. 9 inserts the Talisman into the B.R.A.I.N. because of curiosity not realizing the terror he has initiated. Since 9 lead up to 2's death, number 7 is furious and revolts. Soon after the ninja warrior takes 9 and 5 to a library, they encounter the twins or 3 and 4. These two are the only mute creations, but have a talent to catalog or document any encounters for a sense of better knowledge. The film depicts them as important characters since the library of knowledge is there scansion. Reminding that the film is based on the scientist’s creations, the Talisman is what upholds justice in life or death. After 1 was informed that 9 and 5 snuck out to save 2, the Machine is activated when 9 inserted the Talisman into it. After the terrible mistake that 9 created, the Machine, which I think, is a huge spider, created another machine that looks like a huge bird. My point is that the Machine is the epicenter of the fiasco and since 9 restarted it the ordeal just ramped up. The huge bird like robot goes out to investigate on their location, but they end up destroying the thing. In the process after its destruction the thing explodes crashing down and burns the scant-ion that all are refuting in.  
           
All the doll like creations
The B.R.A.I.N. ( Machine)
            As the film progresses, the machine from the Factory keeps creating other machines to capture the little guys and the creations acquire more and more teamwork skills to prevent further disappointment or loss. Since 9 is the main character in the film, he encounters the scientist subliminal message that he has left for 9 to first encounter for the beginning the film but was naive in looking for it. It is a hologram like projector that states the purpose of the 9 creations and educates him on the missing information that he lacks. He ends up destroying the machine, and recapturing the Talisman to give the fallen creations their dignity to rise in natural conditions. The funeral is the last scene, 9 opens up the Talisman releasing all there souls. The detail that I found relevance to the setting was that when the souls vanished into the heavens, rain or water like droplets fell from the sky with live bacteria, or more importantly first signs of life. It was the beginning of the ending for a new beginning.

  6. This review was pretty good. Lots of background information on the characters and movie. Summary of the movie was a little choppy, but was still good. The flow from paragraph to paragraph could have been better. Not a lot of your opinion in it. However, I thought it was good.
