****WARNING**** Though this review contains spoilers, they'll be announced before being introduced!I walked into this movie without much expectations. Its synopsis interested me somehow.I like B-movies, that's a thing, though they can be a surprise box. Nine Miles Down (2009) is a psychological thriller that will get you thinking.The plot does a good job on making you wonder everything. At first, when you get to the middle of the movie, you pretty much think that, now, everything is expected. You basically will think that you know what's going on. That's what I thought and how wrong was I!It gets convoluted. Oh, it does! I must say, at the end, I was just watching brainless, waiting for what could happen or not. I didn't care. They headed for a "at the end, it's up to you to decide whether it is A or it's B", but the job was kinda messy. Some explanations are not convincing at all, which leaves me to believe that they failed to accomplish that "what's real is up to you" kind of thing.**SPOILER ALERT - BEGINNING** It's stated that Christianson didn't get poisoned by the gas. That doesn't make sense, since she was wandering around with Jack through most of the time. Also, at the end, she said that "she had to play with his hallucinations to get out of there". Who does that? Though, if she's a demon, what's with that regret act?! Besides, how can she be so weak if she's a demon?! See, that's what I was talking about when I said the plot gets convoluted. To be honest, I think she's a demon. To me, it tends more to the demon side than to the hallucination side. **END OF SPOILERS**The horror element was kinda absent. Jump scares are cheap and I think they don't count as horror atmosphere, but they are there, a lot!It's a good movie. Just don't take it too seriously like I did, you might end up here writing brainless reviews.

OK, i admit, that with Adrian Paul being the star i wasn't expecting much, but i finished this being really quite impressed. it doesn't end up being a rework of traditional horror films, and has quite an intelligent feel to it.i think to compare it to much bigger and slicker films would be a mistake, which is why i'm rating it high, the interior sets were good, and the exterior filming was very god indeed, i felt the first third had some really spooky feeling engendered by the exterior dark environment. Adrian Paul i think has aged better, and he looks nice and rugged now, and comes across much more interesting than his highlander days.the only downsides were the slightly contrived sexual tension going on, which i found a little detracting from the main story, and by the last third the overall flow could have been smoother. the production values were good, with little need for visual effects. i really enjoyed this film, which i saw on Netflix almost on a whim, really good stuff.

Good movie. I strongly recommend it. Great acting, original plot, as well as a strong message.It is nothing like avatar or dear john where you can easily predict what is going to happen. At the same time it is pretty realistic and deals with a subject that is becoming of increasing importance in our society today: how to rationally deal with unexplained or apparently unnatural phenomena. The struggle between rationality of science and the irrational instinct of humans.I was captured by the movie for its entire duration. The end is very convincing to me, however the movie did not end after the last scene, if you know what i mean :)

This film could have had potential however the story lacked any depth and scenes were very diluted with long, unnecessary, and repetitive craziness. I use the term craziness since I cannot find a better way to describe such strange and pointless parts in this film. It's as if the director himself was trying to recreate some twisted concept that popped into his mind however when put into action this did not materialize. The film started well while unfortunately and continually progressing very predictably and lacked any positive progression. I might add the female character was rather intriguing; the second unfortunate part was they showed more ass of the guy then anything else which leads me to believe the director must be a homosexual. At times I thought the film may redeem itself when again and again it kept letting me down and just continued to get worse until I got to the point when I couldn't wait for it to just end since I already wasted so much of my time trying to get into it. Possibly worth a watch if you really have nothing else to watch. Don't expect anything great other then a 5 second creative skeleton demon scene and a sexy blonde in nothing but a chefs apron; I know for many of you me simply stating this will lead you to view this piece as soon as possible.
