Nine

Nine. What can I say, I really liked Chicago.

Nine lacks something, just the littlest something and whatever it was, it does not hit the mark. Things I like: Fergie as a whore and her song and dance number. She does all of those things well. Marion Cotillard is a star. Without her, I wouldn't have bothered trying to stay awake. I found myself thinking, I really ought to see La Vie en Rose. Daniel Day-Lewis is not as awesome as we all know he can be. His character is just similar enough to Tomas in The Unbearable Lightness of Being that I was waiting for someone to point out that his hair smelled of another woman. I felt like we were always approaching a crescendo and then ... nothing. It wasn't a bad movie, it just wasn't all that engaging.
