Comic strip action for adults with a low mental age

Rating: 6/10 (12 April 2005)

Watched this movie because of the hype and quite frankly was disappointed. In a world where the criminal use of knives and guns is becoming ever threatening, I wonder do we really need to have this sort gratuitous "bloodfest" offered to us as a supposed work of art.
When a good guy shoots a child rapist in the genitals or beats a villain to pulp are we supposed to feel relieved. This is the behaviour of the mob. Such is the mob mentality that legal justice is not an essential part of its outlook. All that is needed a target, whether guilty or innocent.
The storyline was poor. The movie would have been better at 20 minutes in length. The narrative was tedious, have found it easier to stay awake watching poorer movies than this. Had no empathy for the characters. I did not care whether they lived or died.
The portrayed Sin City is a nightmare world. Can't believe that anyone with goodness inside them would want to live there.
