The greatest stylized violence ever....

Rating: 9/10 (1 April 2005)

Sure there's been more violent movies made, and there's been films rendered to more extreme measures before, but this particular combination of guns, guts and broads combined with hyper-stylized direction makes it a morbidly delightful treat for the eyes and the mind. Not recommended for the squeamish or the easily shocked, Sin City is a non-stop wave of over the top ridiculousness sure to please anyone looking for a dark, funny, unbelievably violent film. I don't even know what Tarantino, listed as a guest director, had to do with this movie, maybe he just wanted to hang out while it was being made. The movie was credited as being the child of Robert Rodriguez, but maybe old Q just wanted to be on set and throw in the occasional idea, eventually getting him his "special guest director" credit. I can't say I blame him though, this movie was fun to watch, and, for the right director, probably fun to make. Grade: A
