NK is great as always. Shes becoming the queen of these slightly higher quality than Hallmark/Lifetime woman/women in peril television movies.
She’s an astounding actress. Remember”To Die For?”. One of the best films ever.
But she can sell anything. Kidman can make you believe that there’s some realm of reality where she yanks on a couture outfit to kill three hours hanging out in an empty AMC theatre, to then wax rhapsodically about how great to go out to the movies.
She has a new face that’s real cute. She kinda looks like Punky Brewster.
Sadly, someone exec made a decision to make all the men-stars in “9PS” as unattractive as possible. So adorable Bobby Cannavale looks like your bff’s creepy dad. Luke Kirby looks like he powders his face, including his lips and eyes, with baby powder. But they’re both very fine actors.
Which can’t not be said of everyone in the cast of “9PS”. Though the script….grrrrr…..the script …. ridiculous writing - do the writers think people still talk like this ? Do people still talk like this? The dialog sounds like it was cribbed from that late 60’s (or early ‘70’s) literary and cinematic dreck-sation: The Harrad Experiment. Kidman, McCarthy, Kirby , as well as that big Michael guy (he’s great) and the actors that play his wife and daughter, all are able to pull off this “We are one and you are we and we are all together “ chatter seriously, but the rest of the cast look uncomfortable.
Despite its flaws , I got locked in to whatever episodes were available (two or three ) and couldn’t let go.
Anyone else?
