Worst film ever made

Rating: 1/10 (26 September 2005)

This was the first time I have ever been truly offended by a movie. I've been shocked by a lot but never really offended. The movie was the most degrading movie towards women that has ever been made. The premises is about a city where everything and everyone is corrupt and do dirty things. The male characters are constantly saving women as their only form of self gratification. The main characters name is Hartigan (pronounced Hard-again). He is an older ex-cop trying to finish off his career with a bang and have one last triumph. His target is a man who has had his penis cut off and there for turns yellow and demon like, as if his penis is the only thing a man can be proud of. There are a lot female characters but only one of them isn't a prostitute, she is a stripper instead. These seem to be the only jobs present for women in this town. They are forced into their own section of town called the "Old Town" where they can make the rules with out pimps. Yet they are still only prostitutes and when they get into trouble the still rely on men to come and save Old Town. The entire movie sexualizes women. Most of the male characters beat the women they hire and not a single female character finds anything wrong with it. The men are pathetic and only find gratification in sex and violence. I have no problem with graphic sex or violence if it is necessary to the point of the artwork. I think that often it is necessary and when done tastefully adds a lot to a film. The main problem with Sin City is that it is a film with no point. I don't find the glorification of needless sex, violence and poor treatment of women as a necessary point to any film. I do not think that this movie should have been made at all but since it was I cannot nor do not think that is should be censored. I just hope that people, especially women, who watch it realize its vulgarity and tastelessness in regard to gender.
