Movie Reviews of The Ninth Gate
Movie Review: An Excellent Film - Definitely Worth Owning
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are looking for satanic horror and gore or a rollercoaster action film, this is not the film for you. On the other hand, if you liked Angel Heart, this film fits nicely in that genre. Ninth Gate features excellent acting, direction and music, as well as a subtle and tight storyline that is very well crafted - driven by mood and imagery as much as plot. The are also some scenes in this movie that amazingly well-done and are, alone, worth the price of admission. There have been some negative reviews - but they seemed to have missed the point of the film or expected a more obvious and pandering approach to cinema and storytelling.Movie Review: Gaining the Angel of Light's Favor
Summary: 5 Stars
Johnny Depp once again gives an excellent performance as a book appraiser who is hired by a very rich and powerful man to authenticate his copy of a book supposedly written by Lucifer itself.
The element about this story that is classic and thought provoking is that in the end, the Angel of Light Lucifer shows its favor towards Depp's character for his willingness to do whatever it takes to survive in this world of false morals that are only followed by the mentally and spiritually weak.
A very good expose in true Satanic thought versus Hollywood Satanists.
Movie Review: Superb effort for Depp and Polanski
Summary: 5 Stars
As other reviewers have stated, this is not your modern computer-generated-image horror story with out of this world screen monsters. Instead, we get a great adult horror/suspense film which should keep you glued to the screen. Subtle imagery and plot twists make this film extremely easy to recommend.
I love this movie and have played it over several times. The vision from Polanski is almost as good as "Chinatown." Well, almost anyway. So sit back, get out the popcorn and don't miss a scene. You'll be well rewarded. Highly recommended.
Movie Review: Gateway to excellent cinema!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie really surprised me as being great in suspense and acting. The two old twins who used to own a copy of the book, ("The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadow") in portugal for example are just weird and spot on. The story keeps you interested and takes you to many locations. I loved the detective work of Depp examining the two other nine gates and how they differ. Who is the mysterious green eyed girl? Why does Balkan, the rich book tycoon, want all three existing copies? What does the nineth gate actually do? Find out!Movie Review: THE CHILD DEVIANT!
Summary: 5 Stars
This cult classic Johnny Depp Film directed by Roman Polanski (Rosemary's baby, Valley Of The Dolls) is a wonderful occult thriller that is shure to entertain any inteligent viewer. The acting is superb, and the story is verry imaginative. This movie is about a serach for Satan...I will tell you know more as I wouldn't want to spoil a wonderful film for you if you haven't ever seen it.
