The 9th Life of Louis Drax is intriguing and visually compelling, but its disparate parts are never truly woven into a satisfying whole.

The film promises a fabulous twist that never comes, and delivers instead some cutesy magical realist touches (lots of interior boy brain stuff) and a palpable lack of chemistry between Dornan and Gadon. October 10, 2016 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

A dopey psychological thriller that combines elements of "The Sixth Sense" with an overbearing sentimentality, "The 9th Life of Louis Drax" flat-lines from beginning to end. September 2, 2016 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

What might be engrossing in Liz Jensen's source novel is oddly opaque in this screen mishmash, and much of what's meant to be tense or suspenseful is merely awkward. September 2, 2016 | Full Review…

There was potential for The 9th Life of Louis Drax to be something more than it is, but it just holds itself back in so many different ways. November 1, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The 9th Life of Louis Drax is a quirky and atmospheric film noir. It's a stylish and sinister head-scratcher that will keep you hooked until its epic conclusion. August 30, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
