Summary: hahaha..and more hahaha
Comment: I was really surprized to see 18 rating whereas this movie hardly anything but nonsense. Sex? Walking naked hardly is sex and as chick has only nipples I was not sure if she actually a female.Benny Hill was much more exiting for this matter. Music? Yeahhh, if this noise called music I am a composer. Plot? Who needs plot or script if you do a high school project? You put together whatever on table and soup is ready.
Especially laughable was scene where director try to avoid to show private parts so he shoots from a distance of like half a mile.
My guess is sex between male and female is not cool anymore.

Summary: about this DVDfilm/movie 9 Songs........
Comment: These film relates more about sexual life between male and female where they also went out together. This piece of DVD is filled with lots of sex till it is more suitable for view at the age of 35 and above. I personally dare not put up any recommendation and talk too much about this film before some under 35 bought these DVD and end up with any troubles in either any country will be bad. Only recommended to people whom are 35 and above + MARRIED couple.
N/B: I heard of sales of this pirate ot bootleg version of film through ebay from some people in south-east asia and to talk a little about this is that these pirate/bootlg has one-line indication at near bottom of the disc to indicate pirate head is Lee Boon Yang, that's all......software which was said to have been done by certain indians in Singapore out of Nero 9 which was mentioned something like this by authorities which was sold overseas also contains the same indication at the bottom of the bootleg package. Some whom managed to copy to their server of these software to do server software also agree that the files are copied by Lee Boon Yang himself after they try to install or run the software or even videos....

Summary: how not to make a movie that incorporates real sex
Comment: I like art house films. I like the idea of using real sex to tell a story- if it a story worth telling.
This movie has no story. This movie has no characters really, simply songs and sex.
This movie could've worked had there been an actual script, character development, and some cinematography. There was none of that.
The concert scenes were uninteresting. The sex scenes were cold and yet the audience is supposed to believe that Matt actually loves Lisa. There's no emotion between the two, no sense of attachment, no feeling that they even like each other.
Many people argue that this movie isn't porn but I completely disagree. I think the director had a vision that was good in his head but failed on screen. There are far sexier, more erotic, more romantic movies out there and I'd highly recommend you not waste your money to see what the hoopla was all about it because that's all there is to this movie- sensationalism.

Summary: A hot, edgy premise doesn't necessarily mean a hot, edgy film
Comment: You'd think that a short movie that alternates between edgy, alternative music performances and extended sex scenes between two young people would at the very least be minimally engaging, but I found "9 Songs" to be fairly dull. The music is murkily shot from the cheap seats, the presumably high resolution video photography doesn't seem very high-res at all, and the two young people just aren't very interesting as movie characters. The girl is kind of cute, I'll give the movie that, and some genuine steaminess seeps into the proceedings here and there. But the smattering of good sex is done in by inane acting, frequent dull stretches, and mostly unmemorable music. If sexy indie film fare is your occasional cup of tea, you could do a lot better. The DVD has a fair amount of special features, but my lack of enthusiasm for the movie has thus far kept me from watching many of them.

Summary: Porn in disguise... but good porn (and good disguise!).
Comment: If you're one of those people who loves watching sex on TV but doesn't like renting or buying porn, then you're in luck: 9 Songs is definitely for you. With more sex (and much better cinematography) than late night HBO, Showtime and even `Skinemax,' 9 Songs is a hardcore art film with little in the way of plot or story and lots of hot, raw, steamy sex.
An official selection of film festivals around the world, I've been wanting to see 9 Songs since I missed it at Sundance. Having heard a lot about it, I had high hopes and was expecting to see a great story of love, set to the soundtrack of nine songs- the length of the movie. Having seen it, I can't say that I regret it, but the film itself didn't exactly knock me out of my boots.
Sociologically 9 Songs is very interesting. That someone (Michael Winterbottom) would make a film with actors engaging in graphic, real sex is certainly a statement on the time and society we live in and it's definitely not all bad. In fact, it was kind of interesting. The story- a man and woman's short (but very passionate) romance- was less enthralling and indeed parts of the film are confusing until (or unless) you watch the extras, explaining what the Antarctic has to do with a love affair in England.
Gloriously shot, the filming and camera work is beautiful, and the characters themselves are interesting; the actors did their job well. There's just little to hold the story together, save for the sex and concert footage dividing the film.
SPECIAL FEATURES
The special features- especially the interviews with the actors and director- bring the film together and raise the interest level greatly. Sharing why he made the movie and explaining some of the details left a bit vague in the film, Michael Winterbottom talks about the sex, the reaction, and the process of casting and filming 9 Songs. Both Kieran O'Brian and Margo Stilley also discuss their feelings on filming the largely unscripted film, dealing with the sex and its repercussions on their careers, and their experiences making the film.
Winterbottom also discusses the use of footage from live concert performances, as well as the bands' (and their respective management) relation to finding out that their music was being used in a sexually explicit film. The special features also include an option to watch a Concert Performance Only track, the Original Trailer and a featurette on the Bands from 9 Songs.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Matt, a young glaciologist, soars across the vast, silent, icebound immensities of the South Pole as he recalls his love affair with Lisa. They meet at a mobbed rock concert in a vast music hall - London's Brixton Academy. They are in bed at night's end. Together, over a period of several months, they pursue a mutual sexual passion whose stages unfold in counterpoint to nine live-concert songs. Featuring nine live concert performances not available anywhere else by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Von Bondies, Elbow, Primal Scream, The Dandy Warhols, Super Furry Animals, Franz Ferdinand and Michael Nyman. Special features include a Concert Performance-only option.
