Nine
"Nine" is a vibrant and provocative musical that follows the life of world famous film director Guido Contini as he reaches a creative and personal crisis of epic proportion, while balancing the numerous women in his life including his wife, his mistress, his film star muse, his confidant and costume designer, an American fashion journalist, the whore from his youth and his mother.
There are many adaptations of the classic Fellini's film "8 1/2" and in this case, this is the film adaptation of the broadway adaptation.... wrap your head around that. Though don't expect this to be another smash hit like Rob Marshall's last musical, "Chicago" as some of the songs are not that memorable or anyway spectacular as the previous film. The women of the film are very beautiful, but their performance in both acting and singing can be ranged from great to very subpar, while Daniel Day Lewis (one of the greatest actors of all time) gave a pretty forgettable. Its a nice little musical, but not worth the spotlight.2 and a half out of 5 stars
