9 (PG)

Plot
In a post-apocalyptic future, sackcloth doll 9 (Elijah Wood) wakes up to find more of his kind struggling for survival against terrifying machines. When 2 (Martin Landau) is abducted, 9 rallies his cohorts for one last chance to save humanity...

Verdict
The apocalyptic 9 offers innovative images of a broken Earth inhabited by woven warriors battling machines. But it’s more style than substance — this mechanical tale needs a human touch.
