Unique

Rating: 7/10 (14 April 2018)

Sin City can be summed up in one word, unique. It really is very unique. The cinematography and nature of it all is very different. It's based on a series of graphic novels. It's a film that's told in parts, it's not all one story, rather it's many different stories all wrapped up into one crazy film.
There are many different Hollywood stars that make up the cast here. The cast includes Bruce Willis, Clive Owen, Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson, Brittany Murphy, Alexis Bledel, Mickey Rourke, Carla Gugino, Elijah Wood... and more. I can say that i really enjoyed the acting in this film, i was impressed by the strong performances given. The characters are all broken in some way, struggling with their own issues. This movies takes place in a city that has so many violent issues, and violent screwed up characters. The police force is mostly corrupt, and there are people that would rather kill you than look at you around every corner. It's definitely another world.
The visuals are all well done for sure, the film-noir look is cool and i enjoyed that style. The violence is appropriately graphic given the kinds of people that this film focuses on and the area it's set in. The writing is fine, I personally wasn't terribly impressed by it, it's really the acting and visuals that impressed me most. There are parts I enjoyed more than others. I would say overall that this film is good and it's well made, I just personally didn't love it like most do.
7/10.
