If the last CGI animation film you saw was “Toy Story,” be prepared to be blown away by “9.”

“9” is the story of how nine uniquely-crafted ragdolls are all fighting to survive in a post-apocalyptic, barren world. All of the humans are gone and the only remaining intelligent “life” forms left on the planet are machines.

The story follows one main ragdoll, voiced by actor Elijah Wood, on his journey to discover the other eight ragdolls. Number 9 is making significant progress in reuniting the bunch until they inadvertently awaken a master machine capable of destroying all of the nine.

This story was a great action-packed thriller with more lifelike animation than you would find in any other CGI film to date. “9” was also produced with 1/3 of the budget that Toy Story or Ratatoullie was given, which only added to director Shane Acker’s genius.

If you are looking to be blown away by a killer plot, see “9.” If you are looking to see the future of 100 percent CGI animation films, watch “9.” If you’re looking for a great action, drama, or sci-fi movie, watch “9.” I assure you, you won’t be disappointed.
