The short film and the feature film for the 9 were both good in their own categories. I feel like the short was a good way to start the audience off with that the movie could be. And the feature film gave us exactly what was expected. The concept of the entire story is amazing. The short was quick to the point with what Shane Acker wanted the story to be. With such a unique world, the feature film elaborated on what happened and it all made sense. What the short film had that the feature film didn't was the lack of dialogue. The lack of dialogue made the film more interesting because you had to focus only on the animation. With just the animation, the director was able to get his point across perfectly. While also having the outline for the main story.
The feature film in my opinion was a good extension of the short film. Unlike the short film, it had dialogue between the character. It also gave the full story of the numbers and what occurred in the world. With the dialogue between characters, it's easy to see how each number acts and the role they play within the group. I do like how in both films the beast was killed differently instead of sharing the same way. Out of the two versions of the film I enjoyed the feature film more. Although I did enjoy the short film. The short film really did intrigue me because of the lack of dialogue but because of the director's ability to keep the audience engaged. The feature film gave me the full movie experience. Meaning introduce the characters, conflicts, and ending. Having an in-depth version of the story is what sold me.
