The stories are sketches, often without resolution, and while individual segments succeed admirably, taken together the portraits are a fitful match.

If only every women's movie had Nine Lives' fire, intelligence, and conviction, they wouldn't have such a shaky reputation in the first place.
Nathan Rabin, AV Club
Fresh
Some parts are stronger than others, but as a fleshed-out artistic vision, Nine Lives works remarkably well.
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Fresh
Nine Lives is an elegant film of quick, tour-de-force acting turns, a simple actor's gesture that tells you more than four pages of dialogue, a movie that demands concentration but that rewards the viewer willing to pay attention.
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel

[Garcia] leaves you thinking deeply about these people. And leaves you wanting more.
Carrie Rickey, Philadelphia Inquirer
