When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Blistering performances.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Having met at a rock concert and shared an intimate night together, two youths decide to continue having sexual encounters after concerts in this Michael Winterbottom movie. The film sparked controversy upon release due to its graphic depictions of sexual activity, and with little occurring in between the rock and copulation scenes, the film has been called everything from 'boring' to 'pornography' over the years. And yet, while it is true that the unconventional structure of the movie makes it hard to get immersed in the characters and story at first, the film eventually takes some interesting turns as we learn that the lovers actually share a deep love and emotional connection beyond what we have otherwise been shown. This in turn renders '9 Songs' a refreshingly different take on a romantic relationship, with only the guy's most striking memories (the sex and the music) played before our eyes. His philosophical quips about Anarctica are of interest too - "Antarctica is the planet's memory before there was people" - and it resonates strongly as he comments "5000 people in a room and you can still feel alone" after attending a concert without his lover. Sure, Winterbottom's approach here is frustrating in that we hardly get to know the characters as individuals, but with all that considered, it is pretty remarkable how strongly Winterbottom captures their emotional connection.

In 'the most sexually explicit film in the history of British cinema', as the hype reads, Lisa (Margo Stilley) and Matt (Kieran O'Brien) spend their free time snorting coke, looking rather bored at rock gigs, and boning each other.Needless to say, there are plenty of moments of graphic nookie between stars Stilley (a little too young and inexperienced to be taking on such a daring film role, maybe) and O'Brien (who, judging by his DVD commentary, seems to have had a whale of a time), lots of rough and ready music footage shot at various London gigs, and some pretentious bilge about life in the Antarctic, all accompanied by a monotonous voice-over.Is 9 Songs a bona fide work of art, voyeuristic porn masquerading as art, a realistic study of an intimate relationship, an exploitative piece of trash, or a risqué promo for up and coming rock bands? I have no idea: it really is very hard to fathom out what Winterbottom and Co.'s intentions were for making this film, although I'm guessing the real answer is, 'it's whatever you want it to be'.Viewers will watch 9 Songs for their own personal reasons (to become aroused; for intellectual discussion at dinner parties; as ammunition for attacking liberal types; or just to see what the fuss is about) and enjoy it accordingly. I thought it passed 66 minutes quite painlessly—the action was hot and the music was cool—but for me, perhaps the most interesting thing about 9 Songs is seeing how the film will affect the stars' careers in the long term, and guessing where this whole 'real sex in cinema' trend will end (Brad and Angelina going at it on Screen 1 at the local multiplex?!?!).

Story of two lovers who spend their summer listening to rock concerts. It spans for an hour and few minutes (full UNCUT Version).Features nine rock songs from the concert which are solely made for this movie. There are intimate scenes between the two lead characters that are quite realistic and some kinky ones too. There are some footages of icebergs in Antarctica while explaining a character. I may be missing the whole concept or the director's message but IMO there is almost nothing good in this movie to talk about except those 9 songs. The movie features a song at the concert followed by a xxx scene, back to back for the whole 70 minutes.
