Nueve


When this was released, I really had no interest in it.  I must have heard someone rave about it, because I added it to my Netflix queue and it finally rose to the top.  Sat down to watch it tonight.

Wow.

Visually stunning, with a mythology that slowly unravels throughout the film, this is a thing of beauty. Some really nuanced visuals made this quite a memorable ride.  The scenes during the playing of Over the Rainbow had a sense of the cyclone-ready sky from Oz.  Just really smart and well done.

And if you can't get enough of the number 9, here you go:

  1. Saw this in the theater... visually stunning. The character designs are excellent. The story tho is a bit retread but fine as it's really a vehicle to showcase the amazing CG. Glad you enjoyed.
