Awesome!

Rating: 10/10 (6 November 2005)

All I can say about this movie is "wow". The style just blew me away, never has a movie come so close to emulating a comic book as this one. The mostly black and white film has splashes of color that just add to the mood. Its like a modern film noir. I am not a big fan of CGI effects in general, but this movie seems made for them.
Some people have dismissed the characters as underdeveloped, but is that not the point of the film? These aren't supposed to be real characters, they are comic book characters, they are almost arch types.
The thin line between right and wrong the "good guys" in this film walk is never far from the surface, but in Sin City you can torture people and still be a "good guy". The men in this film are all violent, the women are mostly one dimensional sex objects. Thats the world they inhabit, and the women in this film are certainly not weak. In fact they kick more butt then any man. Many people can't get by the fact that this film takes place in a stylized world that exists in the fantasy of many young boys. Tough guys, sexy women, and lots of violence. The action in this film is fast, and super violent. Standout performances from Benico Del Toro, Mickey Rouke, Bruce Willis, and Jessica Alba.
