very slick

Rating: 9/10 (7 May 2006)

this is an excellent film. do not recall seeing something like this ever before. It is a dark film. There is no colour in the film, except for specific parts, such as girls eyes, red for blood and car headlights, etc. This adds a wonderfully dark feel, almost in a comical way. The film is very much similar to the format of a comic or computer game. The special effects aree reminiscent ofexplosions in action games, even better, and more fluid. The acting is very suitable, andthe main guy, has a very eery tough guy look. Definitely perfect for the part. He is covered with scars on his face, and is large in size. Yet he seems to have a soft nice side. But, not want to mess with.
The are some great female performances. Some thin, tough girls that add a beautiful touch to the film. They are not to be messed with. There is great use of leather in the film, which adds to this slick and eery look. The scenes, include warehouses and dark alley ways with minimal light. This almost feels to an area for a street fight, which is exactly what this film is. Although portrayed in a much less brutal, common fashion.
i believe there is a computer game called sin city. It is probably like a street fight , type game. Probably very good, given the outcome of this film.
This can be highly recommended, for its originality and quality visuals and special effects. The story is also very exciting and full of depth and character. Watching it several times, will likely open up new layers of the film, to the way the light moves in the background, to the sound of gun fire.
