Rating: 9/10 (13 March 2007)

I am not as familiar with this Frank Miller graphic novel as I was Sin City..but I think I enjoyed this movie a great deal more. Stunningly beautiful to look at, with silvers and sepias as the hyper-highlighted tones. Well acted, brilliantly directed..
NOT FOR CHILDREN. Period. Violence abounds in this one and there are scenes of nudity and simulated sex. I was appalled to see several parents there with kids from 2-10 in the theatre. I don't envy them the sleepless nights comforting their nightmare plagued kids.
Honestly this movie left me feeling like I had sat through a really remarkable stage play. The way it shot in front of green screens gave it a unique feel.
Go see it! you shouldn't be disappointed.
