"...Sometimes that means dying...Sometimes that means killing a whole lot of people."

Rating: Null/10 (28 September 2005)

Sin City is not only my personal favorite film of the year thus far, but has also quickly crept up my list and into my top 20 favorite films of all time. Two theater viewings and several home viewings later have solidified it's place with the best in my book. Call me crazy, but there is something infectiously appealing about a 1930's noir-esquire styled film with memorable characters and dialogue, plenty of violence and insane scenarios such as the ones presented for the crazy characters to get into and out of. Of the three stories, I feel that "Big Fat Kill" was my favorite. It was the most "out there" of the lot, even more so than "That Yellow Bastard" or "The Hard Goodbye", which were quite strange in themselves. But the journey from point A to point B in "Big Fat Kill" is so much more jagged, with plenty of uphill/downhill zigzags galore, and I believe it will be the story most people will forget to mention or at least will mention it the least, giving it a bit of an underdog quality.
So, if you have yet to see it, do so. And if you didn't like it, then why are you reading this?
Bring on "A Dame to Kill For"...
