Searching...
THE NINES is a complex, thought-provoking work divided into three sections and featuring the same actors playing different roles, with the number nine always lurking in the background. In 'The Prisoner,' Ryan Reynolds plays Gary, a TV star who has been placed under house arrest after going crazy because his girlfriend dumped him. He is watched closely by Margaret, a publicist who seems to know more than she is letting on, and by neighbour Sarah, who is instantly attracted to him. In 'Reality Television' Reynolds is a director named Gavin who is shooting a TV pilot starring McCarthy, but he's getting mixed signals from studio executive Susan, all while being filmed for a television reality program. And in 'Knowing', Reynolds is Gabriel, the character in the TV pilot that Gavin was shooting, with McCarthy playing his wife, Mary, and Davis as a mysterious stranger deciding whether she should help the family, whose car has broken down on a deserted mountain. Certain minute elements repeat in each part, giving clues as to what it's all really about as fantasy and reality intertwine.
There are plenty of surprises in this amusing Donnie Darko-ish metaphysical thriller, but watching Van Wilder and Blade: Trinity star Ryan Reynolds flex some previously hidden acting chops is the main one
An intriguing post-modern take on TV, film and gaming culture, with a revelatory performance from the former Van Wilder
An offbeat, unpredictable story that plays out in parallel universes
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
The Nines is a philosophical mind teaser with satirical fangs
The film puts a delightful spin on that profound and solipsistic idea that we are the godlike inventors, and moral arbitrators, of our own little worlds. A gem
There's more than enough intelligence, intrigue and performance dazzle to make this an adventuresome gizmo for grownups
