Hello ! After taking a look at the brilliant short film 9 by Shane Acker I decided to go and watch the full film that was made from the short. I thoroughly impressed by the 7 minute short film so I expected nothing from this movie. After watching this action packed adventure not one bit of me was disappointed. The movie is set post apocalypse, as the world had fallen to pieces from a war between man and machine. Afterwards there was a mission made with hopes of restoring the legacy of civilization. There was a small group of gadgets and inventions that gave a small spark of life and they continued to live. A hand stitched doll with the number 9 on its back comes to life in this scary world. But he soon finds out he isn’t alone and there are others close by just like him. They all look quite similar but are still easy to tell apart. The main character #9 shows his leadership qualities that help him and his own to survive and possibly maybe thrive in their world. This story follows him, a war veteran that had been the group’s leader for quite some time, an inventor, a pair of twins, an engineer, an erratic artists, a warrior, and a not so smart enforcer for the war veteran. Together they must out wit and fight against these strong evil machines, specifically The Beast. To do so they all must use their individual strengths way beyond their boundaries. #9 takes leadership role and gathers them all up together and through out the film realizes the power of community. He comes to learn how one person can be the change in the world. I feel as though this movie was targeted at around my age group and above. I got a very wholesome and exciting impression from this film. The visuals in this film were fantastically detailed and made for a very intriguing film that really entrances the audience. Its exciting to think that something that started off as a small idea and a short film could turn into something this big.
