Nine Queens Audience Reviews

Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
Yashua Kimbrough (jimniexperience) "Nine Queens"Swinder's black comedy movie about an experience indebted con-man (Marcos) teaming with a rookie con-man (Juan) for the day to swindle some grannies and coffee shops, when he gets tipped off by an old partner of the biggest con of their time: a wanted wealthy man who happens to be a stamp collector is taking refugee inside Marco sister's hotel. It has a counterfeit sheet of some rare stamps called "Nine Queens" that are worth over a million dollars ....Marcos takes the job , but there's catches to everything when in business with a swindler , and as other people hear of the con, they want a piece of the cut too. From bike thieves, crooked cops, dimwitted crime partners, crooked stamp verifier, attempts to hustle old ladies who have the real stamps, a sister and brother fighting over inheritance custody, the stamp collector horny addiction to his sister, to a bounced check ... This movie comes full circle and is a well-constructed, highly thought out swindle movie9.5/10
Thanos Karagioras "Nine Queens" is a movie in which we watch two con artists try to make a deal with a stamp collector by selling him a sheet of counterfeit rare stamps. Also in their try to make this deal happen they have to give many things in order to get what they want, so we watch them fight with their selves to succeed this.I really liked this movie because of the plot which I believe it was great and in some moments I could not know what to believe or better who to believe. In addition to this I have to say that the direction of Fabian Bielinsky was really good and this is something that we can understand in the whole duration of the film. About the interpretations of this movie I have to mention the very good interpretation of Ricardo Darín who was for one more time outstanding in his role and the interpretations of Gastón Pauls and Leticia Brédice who were equally good.Lastly I want to say that "Nine Queens" is a really different movie than the other Crime - Thriller movies because it combines very good the plot which is perfectly written with the cast. Also I have to say that this movie remind me the movie "The Game" with Michael Douglas which I believe has many common things and one of those is that you can not expect anything and you can not believe anyone.
Boba_Fett1138 This is how a crime movie should be like; great, clever, fun and original. "Nueve reinas" has all of these elements in it, making this a great movie to watch! Really, it's a movie that deserves to be seen by more but most people have most likely never even heard about this movie, since it's an Argentinian production. This shall probably also scare a whole bunch of people off already but honestly, Latin American productions are often perfectly watchable ones and besides made in pretty much the same style as Hollywood productions. In other words; perfectly accessible to watch, even for those who aren't really accustomed to watching 'foreign' movies.It luckily was a movie that earned lots of critical praise and got recognized by still many, all over the world, as a great movie. It makes at all the more a big shame that director Fabián Bielinsky died a couple of years after this movie, at a fairly young age. I'm convinced that this guy could had made many more great movies, like this one.Foremost reason why this movie works out well is because it's being a fun movie to watch. Not necessarily in a comedy way but more due to the way the story progresses and how the main characters slowly but steadily get into more and more trouble, as they try to make a big score. It often gets them in some unexpected situations and ensures that the movie makes plenty of twists and turns with its story.It's a simple movie with its setup but one that gets made slightly more complicated with developments. Not that the movie ever gets hard to follow though. Saying that it's often being clever does not mean that it's also totally going overboard with anything and the story becomes too hard or complex to follow.It has some solid characters in it as well and the movie gets mostly carried by its two main leads, played by Ricardo Darín and Gastón Pauls. All around the movie features some good performances in it, which was also necessary, since it's actually a very talkative movie as well, once you start thinking back about it. Don't let this scare you off though, since the movie is still fast paced as well and features plenty of great developments and situations in it, that will keep you interested at all times.A movie that deserves to be seen by more!8/10 http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
Missmonday Tanaluk It's hard to find free online movie or rental movie shop in Asia.Also,hard to find torrent to load.So, I 've just bought from Amazon 15$. T____T Riccardo Darin is born to be face-acting.Nine queens like Tom Yam Kung (Wonderful Thai food) which have all flavor;triller,drama,comedy(especially,the scene which the guy who take the gun to disclaim checque from Marcos.It's so funny.Every flavor master blended with properly ratio.Fabien is smart producer.I don't know why/where every shot is perfect conversation and acting,but it's stunned me all 2 hours.I'm so sad to know that he pass away.Not only 2 main actor,but all teams are perfect acting.No over acting No speech much.Our world lose perfect producer!!
