Visually stunning

Rating: 8/10 (8 September 2014)

Well, I think that no one could deny the visual effects of this movie. It was shot to resemble a comic, and the result is absolutely perfect. It makes you feel like you are watching a comic coming to life, animating just in front of you, leaving you stunned. The pure black makes the white so bright that it can blind you. Blood, lights, a tie... something will look like a hole in the screen. And it's is really captivating.
If we want to talk about the stories, well, I was a little unsettled by The Costumer is Always Right. Then I found out it was made to present the project to Miller. I still don't understand why this story was included in the movie, but it's OK. I mean all the credits are longer than the story itself, but...
The first. The first story it's my favorite. Maybe because it included some actors I love like Bruce Willis and Nick Stahl (I really think he is and amazing actor). For a moment, the story between Hartigan and Nancy unsettled me, and it stupid if you think about the amount of violence you can see in this movie.
The hard Goodbye fascinated me for its creepiness. Rourke is amazing in the role, but something about Elijah Wood in the role of Kevin, didn't felt quite right. I couldn't see him in that role.
The dialogues between a dead Del Toro and Dwight were something really interesting, and I really loved the idea about the cut on his throat affecting his voice. It was something absolutely special that made the scene even more creepy.
Many people said this movie was something like a huge hymn to violence, full of characters who didn't have any regret about their actions. What I liked about this movie is that very fact. Bad guys in this movie, are bad guys. They kill because they are son's of bitches, and they kill because they can and they have the power to cover everything. And the people who go against them know that, and that's why they don't feel any remorse for what they do. They torture and take their revenge in the most horrible of the way because they really think they deserve it. And bastards without remorse are my favorite kind of villains.
And, another thing I want to point out, is the amount of beautiful girls in this movie. I know it's not like a fundamental... no wait... Old Town is a place where basically whore are the law, they are like a sorority, protecting their business and their territory, and it looks like they have really high standards for their associates. And Rosario Dawson was absolutely breathtaking.
