9 SONGS

9 songs is not a poor movie. It's obviously the brainchild of someone who cares about film and wanted to make something powerful, but he seems to have gotten lost along the way. What starts off a movie seemingly about two people who share a love for music, becomes a slightly boring take on one woman's egotistical voyage through a million orgasms. The main characters are bland and predictable, although, in terms of plot, there is little substance to predict. The film meanders down a highway of sex, never kinky enough to be dangerous, and music, never accomplished enough to be satisfying. If the script took a few risks not relating to cunnilingus, and sought some more depth in the main female character, it could have gained some credibility. As it is, it feels as though you are watching two past it musos masturbating to old Primal Scream videos.
