Boring, long, and too preachy.

Best movie ever!

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Phillip Dewaar learn to spell "creative" if you want to be taken seriously.This was actually a innovative show. It also introduced a limited time frame though, 24 episode max. 9 people, bank heist, once the connections were made. . . done. The fact that it only reached 13 episodes was a realization on 2 fronts, 1-the why's and how's can only be stretched so far and 2 - nobody actually cares that much bank robberies on a TV medium.Bank heists should be left to 3 episode fillers or 1 episode plot devices. Movies though, I don't mind if the main focus is only a bank, only because it is only a time sacrifice of a couple hours or less and not a week by week commitment between 1 to 6 months long.

I really liked this show.I am curious as to what happened to the "characters'.Tim Daly is great.I see the show is on tonight as listed as "NEW".Does that mean the show will be on the fall schedule? Or is this really a repeat but they are stating it as "NEW"? I am also curious as to why we have to write a minimum of 10 lines in the comment box, when 5 lines will suffice.I also see other posts with less than 10 lines... so what is with that??? Will we be able to get this show on DVD any time soon???

No, The Nine will not be missed at all.It wasn't a "crative" or "innovative" show. Rather it was a show that tried ever so hard to clothe itself in the trappings of the current bad-directing-as-hype nonsense.Apparently, if you direct a show as badly as you possibly can by playing with your zoom and shaking the camera you're supposed to be "hip", "edgy", "real" and whatever buzzword is cool that particular day.Of course, shooting a show in that way is nothing but pseudo-intellectual self-gratification of the worse order.One had to feel bad for Tim Daly, who is a wonderful actor who deserved the excellent EYES to be a success. Sadly, he had to waste his time on that waste of film.It won't be missed... at all!

I enjoyed this series and am very disappointed it's gone. It's plot line was unique and compelling, and though character developments were ramping up slowly, I found that to be a good thing. Sort of like getting to know a good friend in depth, over time.That 'friend' wasn't any particular character - there were no "superstar standouts" in the large ensemble cast in my opinion, but each person was interesting enough to hold their own, plus contribute to the overall 'character' of The Nine.If they're going to pull the rug out it would be great if they'd consider a wrap-up movie, a micro-series or a publication where lingering questions and mysteries of what happened during the hostage holdout and what happens with their lives in the aftermath are put to rest.
