Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
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.

fresh:
The dialogue snaps, crackles and pops. And confusing as they may be, the stories are never boring.
– Jack Mathews,

rotten:
The Nines, which in real life began as a TV project, wavers uncomfortably between satire and dime-store existentialism on the big screen.

rotten:
The cosmic "resolution" that ties the stories together proves less interesting than the stories themselves.

rotten:
This overreaching, Lynch-lite comic drama is the mediocre directorial debut of screenwriter John August ('Charlie's Angels', 'Big Fish') and, if nothing else, demonstrates why some writers should stick to their laptops.
