The Nines Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
The Nines is the feature-film-directing debut from screenwriter John August, but it feels much more like some Bizarro World collaboration between Jean-Paul Sartre and Charlie Kaufman, and not in a good way, either.
Entertainment Insiders
Jonathan W. Hickman
The Nines is a movie that aims to raise more questions than it answers.
Monsters and Critics
Ron Wilkinson
A valid exploration of chaos and control told by a guy who knows. Good low budget sci-fi with a hip side.
TheMovieReport.com
Michael Dequina
All three stories don't congeal into the grand sum profundity that August so clearly is striving to suggest.
Filmcritic.com
Jesse Hassenger
August the director fits a lot of architecture into his tiny spaces.
FilmStew.com
Brent Simon
Does not work one's id into a tizzy in the manner that Lynch's Mulholland Drive or Ozon's Swimming Pool, two films that bear loose association, do.
Long Island Press
Prairie Miller
A rather aimless and convoluted brain teaser that attempts to transfer the kind of introspective discourse literary device of novels, that is best just left on the page.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
The cosmic "resolution" that ties the stories together proves less interesting than the stories themselves.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
The payoff fizzles, but the buildup is intriguing until it topples under its own weight.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
The Nines, which in real life began as a TV project, wavers uncomfortably between satire and dime-store existentialism on the big screen.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
The dialogue snaps, crackles and pops. And confusing as they may be, the stories are never boring.
Los Angeles Times
Carina Chocano
Bright and vicious, desperate and cruel, the characters of the first two stories pop with a kind of nihilistic joie de vivre that makes you want to hug them and kill them at once.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
Confusing? Yes, and intentionally so. But it's never boring.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The Nines is a philosophical mind teaser with satirical fangs.
MTV
Kurt Loder
This fascinating puzzle box of a movie is so clever it almost feels like a stunt - an attempt to keep so many balls in the air that you marvel at the filmmaker's technical facility.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
The movie never fails to be crisply written and cannily delivered, but it's way too steeped in TV-culture inside jokes for its own good, and August's attempts to suffuse the whole thing with ontological or theological meaning are ultimately pretty dumb.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
You'll go ''Huh?'' but you won't feel cheated.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Ryan Reynolds may not be a demigod (much less a full-fledged deity), but he plays one to sterling effect in The Nines.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
There's more than enough intelligence, intrigue and performance dazzle to make this an adventuresome gizmo for grownups.
The Hollywood Reporter
Sura Wood
An offbeat, unpredictable story that plays out in parallel universes.
