The most entertaining film ever made.

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2005)

Sin City was the greatest experience I have ever had in a movie theatre. It delivered everything I have ever wanted in a film. The acting was terrific, the direction superb, and the style was simply astounding. This movie oozes style from it's every pore. There's just something so inherently cool about it. I never thought I would say that a movie was straight up cooler than Pulp Fiction, but Sin City has done it. The only thing it is missing is Samuel L. Jackson, but The rest of the cast more than makes up for that oversight. Even actors I normally don't enjoy, such as Britney Murphy, come off as hard as nails people living in a hard city.
The fact that it's the most faithful adaptation ever made doesn't hurt either. I've been a Frank Miller fan ever since I read "The Dark Knight Returns", but I hadn't read the Sin City comics before seeing the film. This means you don't necessarily have to be a fan of the comics to appreciate the genius of the film. But you better believe I'll be reading the comics first chance I get.
In my life I have seen hundreds and hundreds of films without ever thinking to myself "This is it. This is the one. This is my favourite movie.". Sin City has given that to me, and for that I am very thankful to Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller.
Thank you very much.
