Fantastic, yet morbid.

Rating: 8/10 (2 April 2005)

Sin City is a great film, with more than enough bloodshed, violence, and exposed women to satisfy any testosterone-fueled moviegoer. However, what is really surprising is the subtle intellect that waits beneath the surface. This film is witty and poignant, the script is fantastic. However, the few complaints that I do have can be overlooked. Personally, I thought that there was too much blood. Then I realized that this movie is based on a comic. One should go to this movie expecting to see gallons of blood and almost non-stop violence. In short, the cast is fantastic, the acting almost flawless, and one of the best endings to a movie I've seen in quite a while. Highly recommended for action fans.
