4/5	Eric Campos	You get the feeling that the filmmakers did their homework and that they�re here to represent a harsh reality." Full Review \| Comment \| Dec., 29 2002 06:51 PM	Film Threat

	Ernest Hardy	So riddled with unanswered questions that it requires gargantuan leaps of faith just to watch it plod along. Full Review \| Comment \| Dec., 13 2002 07:21 PM	L.A. Weekly
3.5/5	Kevin Thomas	A taut, intelligent psychological drama. Full Review \| Comment \| Dec., 13 2002 08:04 AM	Los Angeles Times
3/5	Ed Scheid	The intense and penetrating performances of Risley and Shelly focus on the human costs of a mental illness. But the film, while grounded in reality, seems to rush to an abrupt conclusion. Full Review \| Comment \| Dec., 06 2002 05:25 PM	Boxoffice Magazine
	Par Parekh	Even through its flaws, Revolution #9 proves to be a compelling, interestingly told film. Full Review \| Comment \| Dec., 03 2002 08:05 AM	Film Journal International
	Frank Scheck	The characterizations and dialogue lack depth or complexity, with the ironic exception of Scooter. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 19 2002 02:14 PM	Hollywood Reporter
C+	Edward Havens	A strong and confident work which works so well for the first 89 minutes, but ends so horrendously confusing in the final two Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 19 2002 08:04 AM	FilmJerk.com
4/5	Gil Jawetz	There is a strong directorial stamp on every frame of this stylish film that is able to visualize schizophrenia but is still confident enough to step back and look at the sick character with a sane eye. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 18 2002 11:15 AM	DVDTalk.com
A	Marshall Fine	Strong stuff, minus the upbeat sentimentality of last year's Oscar-winner. In that respect, it may be an even more important film. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 18 2002 08:04 AM	Journal News (Westchester, NY)
2.5/4	Megan Turner	A smart little indie. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 15 2002 08:05 AM	New York Post
74/100	Jon Lap	[T]he film is never sure to make a clear point � even if it seeks to rely on an ambiguous presentation. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 15 2002 04:57 AM	Apollo Guide
	MaryAnn Johanson	Appropriately cynical social commentary aside, #9 never quite ignites. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 14 2002 09:27 PM	Flick Filosopher
3.5/5	Ken Fox	An atmospheric, serious-minded thriller. Full Review \| Comment \| Nov., 14 2002 08:41 PM	TV Guide's Movie Guide
