Movie Review - The Ninth Gate

Here is the Plot Outline: The sleazy book dealer Corso (Depp) is hired by the obscure obsessive Balkan to find the only other two copies of his rare book in existence. The book is called 'The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows', and Balkan wants to authenticate his copy of this 17th century occult work, said to have been written by the devil.


This is actually a pretty good movie that I had never heard of. The movie came out in 1999. The plot is laid out well and Depp does his usual good job of being able to act out an interesting character. You definitely have to check it out when you get a chance. The ending was crappy and that's why I gave it a B instead of a B+.
