Excessive Violence

Rating: 5/10 (4 April 2005)

I'm not a comic book fan but read reviews that stated even if I wasn't I could get a lot our of Sin City. I really wish someone would have warned me about the excessive, gratuitous violence found in Sin City. The film was physically and emotionally exhausting. The members of the audience that were laughing certainly weren't paying enough attention to the decay of humanity found within. Luckily I didn't end up with nightmares as I went to see a matinée. I had to decompress with more than an hour of South Park to erase the horrors of Sin City. Even though blood and guts were portrayed in colors other than red it was readily apparent that this was indeed the innards of another person. The one redeeming part of the film was the director's fascination with some amazing female buttocks.
