    At the beginning of The Nines was confusing at first. You have to watch it in great detail to even try to understand it. I really thought it was one of those movies that the main character try drugs for the first time and go into a coma. His friends and family members are trying to bring him out of this coma. Actually, that was not the case with this movie. It was so surprising to find out that Ryan's many characters were angels or something higher (not sure).

    I did not enjoy "The Nines". Started off as what I thought was going to be an interesting movie...then lost me and had a confusing ending. Do not recommend this movie.
