Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

Plot synopsis:
Like the first Sin City film, this one is made up of sub-stories that, in some way or another, tie in to the main plot.Just Another Saturday Night:Marv (Mickey Rourke) is thrown from a vehicle. He has no idea how he got there or what just happened. There's a dead body lying near him. He grabs his pills and pops several into his mouth.He recalls walking through the projects of Basin City, an area where he was born and raised. As it was a Saturday night, Marv remembers being at Kadie's, getting drunk and checking out stripper Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba), along with all the other men in the joint. Outside, Marv sees a man on fire running and screaming. He comes across four preppy college boys dousing another man with gasoline. Marv breaks a bottle in front of them and tells them to let the guy go. One of the boys pulls out a gun and calls Marv a "Bernini Boy", but Marv thinks he called him "Bernie". He shoots Marv in the shoulder. Marv is mostly unfazed and when he doesn't go down, the boys get frightened and run. Marv catches two of them on the rooftops, aiming their guns at him. Two arrows come down, and Marv knows who's near. He makes a gesture to show he's on their side, and then points at the boys. Two more arrows hit them. Marv meets the two boys and asks the one that shot him why he called him Bernie. The boy says Bernini is the maker of the coat Marv is wearing. Marv then calls for a knife and slashes the boy's throat, while the other one takes another arrow. Marv then hijacks a cop car and chases after the other two, ramming into their car and bringing him to where we found him. He steps on the last boy's chest and crushes his lungs before lighting up the gas and blowing the cars up and fleeing the scene.The Long Bad Night (Part One):Senator Roark (Powers Boothe) is playing poker in the backroom of Kadie's with his associates, including a crooked cop. A drifter named Johnny (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) comes into the place. He's approached by a stripper named Marcie (Julia Garner). Johnny takes out a coin and walks with Marcie to the slot machine. He tells her to blow on the coin and then places it into the machine. He hits the jackpot. He gets another coin and tells Marcie to kiss it. She does, and he drops it into the machine, winning big again. Johnny takes the coins and Marcy to the backroom to play poker with Roark. Despite being warned against this move, Johnny plays well enough to beat Roark at his game. He takes his winnings and Marcie with him. The cop warns Johnny that he can't protect him.Johnny takes Marcie out for a night on the town. While walking the streets, they're followed by two thugs. Johnny tells Marcie to step aside while he handles them. He punches one thug in the face and grabs the blackjack from his hand, then beats the other thug before finishing off the first one. A limo pulls up. Johnny tells Marcie to meet him at a hotel. He gets in the limo, where Roark and his men are sitting. The goons beat Johnny's face, and Roark hands one of them pliers to break Johnny's fingers from his dealing hand. They throw Johnny out of the limo. Roark steps out and admits that he knows Johnny is his son, but he only ever considered his deceased son (Roark Jr/The Yellow Bastard) to be his own blood. Roark shoots Johnny in the leg and leaves him there to die. As he and his men leave, Johnny vows revenge on Roark.A Dame To Kill For:Dwight McCarthy (Josh Brolin) is spying on a man named Joey (Ray Liotta) and taking pictures of him as he goes into a hotel room to have sex with a prostitute named Sally (Juno Temple). He handcuffs her to the bed and roughly has his way with her. After they finish, Joey takes out his gun to kill Sally for fear that she'll say something to his wife. Dwight crashes through the skylight and lands on Joey, beating him unconscious. He takes Sally into Old Town where she'll be safe. Afterward, he goes to collect his payment from his client, which turns out to be Joey's wife, giving her the pictures she asked him for while her lawyer pays him.Dwight is driving the Mustang at high speed down a mountain road, and feels a sense of rage overcoming him. He warns himself not to let the beast out. At home, he gets a call from a familiar voice, one that he hoped he'd never hear again - Ava Lord (Eva Green). She has him meet her at Kadie's. He wants nothing to do with her, but she begs him for forgiveness and protection against her husband Damien. Dwight indifferently says he forgives Ava and tells her to leave. She pulls him in for a kiss, and he's hooked. Manute (Dennis Haysbert) enters and threatens Dwight before taking Ava away. Marv, watching from the bar, offers to step in for Dwight. He tells Manute this isn't Marv's fight. Manute takes Ava with him.We next see Dwight up on the rooftop at Ava's home where he takes pictures of her as she swims naked in her pool. Manute's men ambush him and hold him down while he's brutally beaten by Manute. They toss him out of their limo as it's still moving, leaving him in front of his place. As he stands up, he sees his Mustang parked outside and wonders how it got there. He goes into his apartment to find Ava waiting for him, naked on his bed. She asks to be punished, for him to make her feel the pain that HE feels. Dwight slaps her, and then they get into rough sex. After they're finished, Ava tells Dwight that she's tried to get out of her marriage several times because Damien is an abusive husband who has Manute torture her using methods that leave no noticeable signs of injury. She tells him that her husband abuses her, and does not care where she goes off to, as the servant Manute (Dennis Haysbert) will always find her and take her back to him. At this point, as if right on cue, Manute suddenly appears from the shadows. Dwight punches him twice in the face before Manute punches him so hard in the chest that Dwight flies out the window. Back in Dwight's bedroom, Manute helps Ava back into her coat, saying she has an "appointment to keep."Dwight goes to Kadie's to ask Marv for help. He gets Marv drunk enough to get him riled up and ready to kill. They get to Ava's home, where Marv annihilates everybody in his path. He takes on Manute, where the two hulking brutes beat each until Marv knocks Manute out cold, and then plucks his right eye out. Dwight enters the house to confront Damien (Marton Csokas). Damien pulls his gun on him, but Dwight beats his face and crushes his throat, killing him. Ava asks Dwight what it "feels like to kill an innocent man." Dwight realizes he was set up, and Ava pulls out her gun to shoot him. She misses Dwight's heart and head, but she manages to shoot him out the window. He lands on the concrete and is unconscious.Marv grabs Dwight and puts him in the back of the car. Dwight's right eye is nearly hanging out. Marv evades the cops and makes it into Old Town. The cops don't follow them any further, knowing their limits, save for one cop who Dwight figures to be a rookie. The girls of Old Town shoot at the car and blow it up with flamethrowers as the cop flees. Marv brings Dwight to Gale (Rosario Dawson) and her girls. Gale sees Dwight looking really messed up. She tends to him but is angry with him for leaving Old Town. Gale's girls even think they ought to just kill him, specifically twins Goldie and Wendy (both played by Jaime King). Miho (Jamie Chung) gets her sword ready to kill Dwight until Gale introduces him as the man who saved her years ago when two thugs nearly got the drop on her.Back at Ava's home, she's interviewed by the lieutenant Mort (Christopher Meloni) and his partner Bob (Jeremy Piven). She pretends to be devastated over Damien's death, and she subtly comes onto Mort. Bob notices the attraction and even feels a bit aroused by her. Eventually, Mort succumbs to the temptation and goes over to Ava's house to have sex with her while also trying to find Dwight. Dwight ends up calling Ava's home, which makes her tense. Mort drives away with Bob, who berates Mort for the affair. Mort loses it and shoots Bob in the eye and then stops the car, throws his body over a cliff, and then kneels in the road and shoots himself in the head. Dwight says this is part of Ava's seduction that drives men mad.Gale decides to help Dwight get back at Ava. We see her inside a party held at Ava's home where she overhears Ava conspiring with another mobster, Herr Wallenquist (Stacy Keach Jr.) to kill Dwight. Later on, Dwight arrives from getting facial reconstruction surgery to go back to Ava's home undetected. However, Manute recognizes him from his eyes. He takes Dwight to Ava's home, where Gale and Miho have gone to kill all the guards before allowing Dwight to reach Ava. Dwight first shoots Manute into Ava's pool, and Gale throws a bomb that blows up and gets glass across Ava's face, scarring her. Ava shoots Manute down for good, and then tries to seduce Dwight once again. They kiss one last time before Dwight shoots Ava. She slowly dies, and Dwight plans to take the backstreets with Gale and Miho to get out of there undetected.The Long Bad Night (Part Two):Johnny goes to Dr. Kroenig (Christopher Lloyd) with only $40 to get himself fixed. Kroenig gets the bullet out of Johnny's leg, and offers to fix Johnny's hand in exchange for his shoes. After this, as Johnny is walking away in the rain, he remembers Marcie and runs to the hotel. Unfortunately, Roark and his guys got there already. They show Johnny Marcie's severed hands before throwing her head to him. Roark says he could kill Johnny but then laughs maniacally and says he likes him the way he is.Johnny is remorseful for his quest for vengeance as it has gotten Marcie killed. He goes to a diner and meets the waitress Bertha (Lady Gaga). She gives him a dollar out of sympathy. He takes it to Kadie's and hits the slots again for a rematch with Roark. He deals with his left hand this time, being ambidextrous. Roark taunts him about his mother, calling her a whore. Johnny folds on the first several hands, letting them go by but which we see by the cards he would have won, and then finally calls 'all in' and beats Roark with four Aces over Kings. He then acts cocky once again, telling Roark that he has now beaten him two nights in a row, and that stories about it would get around making everyone aware that he beat him, and that in this way he would keep beating him forever. However, Roark gets angry at this, tells him off and finally says "power is as power does", then he lifts his gun and shoots him in the forehead. He has his men get rid of the body.Nancy's Last Dance:Nancy visits the grave of her former protector John Hartigan (Bruce Willis). Since he killed himself to protect her, she has become a bitter alcoholic. She continues to work at Kadie's as a stripper, with her new act as a gunslinger. On multiple occasions, she's aimed at Roark, desperate for revenge, but she's never been able to pull the trigger. She goes to the shooting range and practices frequently, imagining Roark's head being shot at. Not even Roark himself realized that the girl his son had kidnapped grew up to be the same stripper he saw at Kadie's every night.Nancy sees hallucinations of Hartigan telling her that he'll never leave her. It begins to haunt her mind as she can't bring herself to kill Roark. She has a nightmare that he is in her room, threatening to kill her.After performing onstage, Nancy smashes her head in the mirror and grabs broken glass, cutting her face. Later, she gets stitched up and is confronted by Marv. He offers to help Nancy get to Roark. Outside Kadie's, three thugs come in with guns. Marv grabs two guns from one thug, knocks him out, and shoots the other two. Nancy finishes off the last guy.Nancy and Marv make their way to Roark's estate, where Marv once again slaughters his way through all the goons, while Nancy kills some men with her crossbow. They make it inside, but Marv is wounded. Nancy gives him a cigarette and lets him sit this one out. She makes it to Roark's room and sees him. She shoots at him, but it's just a reflection. The actual Roark shoots Nancy in the side and taunts her. He shoots her two more times before deciding where he should shoot her since Hartigan shot his son in the groin. Before Roark can deliver the final shot, he sees Hartigan in the mirror, throwing him off. This gives Nancy a chance to grab her gun and shoot Roark in the shoulder. It brings him down, giving Nancy another clear shot. Roark looks at her in horror as she says, "This is for John Hartigan...fucker!" BLAM.

Review:
It's both.) I don't get all the criticism of how this "look" has grown tiresome --not for me in 3D.All the actors in big roles to small look like they are having a sinful amount of fun, but Joseph Gordon-Levitt is almost as strong as Green in a new role in one the new stories written for the movie.
If you saw "Looper" (or "Inception") you already know that JGL can play a tough guy despite his physical size.Make no mistake this movie is a feature length Roadrunner cartoon for adults --emphasis on "adults"--with all of the ridiculous action & over- the-top violence that only a cartoon can get away with because of the way it's rendered.(No kids, please: there is just enough gore that isn't so cartoonish to make it unfit for children.)Like the first Sin City 9 years ago, this new Sin City is B-movie bliss.
Almost ten years later, writer/directors Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller try to strike gold again with a second screen adaptation of the Sin City graphic novels.Unfortunately, A Dame to Kill For suffers from all the afflictions of a bad sequel: an overcomplicated plot forcing a resolved story forward, recasting of previous roles and the addition of new but significantly less compelling characters, and exploiting the spark that made the first film great while still not having that magical appeal.Once again we find ourselves in hardened and corrupted town of Basin City where the inhabitants exist and resist against the sinful city, while others revel in its reprehensible environment.Producers started working on a sequel seven years after the initial film was released.
It also looks the same, feels the same, and with mostly the same actors appearing on screen (though with a sad nod at the absence of Clive Owen), the fact that this second volume has been released a long 9 years after the original is quickly forgotten.I have to say that Eva Green's performance as the character Ava Lord is really the strongest point of the movie for me.
The story arc featuring her character was the movie's best, in my opinion.Mickey Rourke as Marv, Powers Boothe as Senator Roark, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Johnny also delivered great, convincing performances that really draw you into the chaotic and villainous world of Sin City.
This film is not recommended.Frank Miller's Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill For may seem like an excessively long title, but excessive and long do perfectly describe this film.Filmed in black and white, with spatters of killer red blood to give it some panache, the film is a stylish crime thriller with live action and graphic (as in novel and/or violence) effects.
Similar to its 2005 predecessor (which I thoroughly enjoyed), but now lacking in its originality and inventiveness, Frank Miller's Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill seems like a cheap knock-off.
Deformed goon Marv (Mickey Rourke), pitiful stripper Nancy (Jessica Alba), seedy PI and hero type Dwight (now played by Josh Brolin), prostitute and dominatrix Gail (Rosario Dawson), corrupt politician and main villain Senator Roarke (Powers Boothe), even dead dick (Bruce Willis) appears briefly.
And while Sin City 2 isn't as a good as the original,it's a wonderful sequel that works as a memorable follow-up.Set before and after the events and stories in the first film,Sin City:A Dame To Kill For gives viewers four more thrilling and intense tales of Sin City.The original Sin City was a brilliant,unforgettable and groundbreaking Comic Book film and is one of my all-time favorite movies and seemed like a film that would get a sequel.
Co-directors Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller have given viewers a stylish sequel that right from the beginning gives viewers the same energy and thrills that made the first movie work in the first place and the whole time you're watching the film you can't take your eyes off of it.
The movie works as a sequel and prequel combining two stories from Frank Miller's books(A Dame To Kill For and Just Another Saturday Night)and new stories written for the film(The Long,Bad Night and Nancy's Last Dance)where each story interconnects with one another.
Where as the first film was 2 hours and 4 minutes,SC2 is much shorter and while 1 hour and 42 minutes isn't bad I would have loved for the movie to be ten to twenty minutes longer because with the exception of A Dame To Kill For(which is almost 50 minutes and is the longest and best segment)the other two of the four tales The Long,Bad Night and Nancy's Last Dance while wonderful and compelling are too short,rushed and feel like they both should have been longer at 30-35 minutes like the stories in the first film.
Good score,Rodriguez.In final word,if you loved the first Sin City,the graphic novels,Robert Rodriguez or Frank Miller,I highly suggest you see Sin City:A Dame To Kill For,a terrific and entertaining sequel that is not as good as the original but still a worthy and memorable follow to the first film.
Awakening on a deserted highway outside the city, Marv recalls his altercation with a group of frat boys beating up a wino before he blacked out and his subsequent return to Kadie's saloon, where he keeps an eye on its resident stripper Nancy (Jessica Alba) whose tragic past was the subject of the previous movie as well as whose obsession for vengeance bookends this current one.But Marv and Nancy ain't the only ones who are back; Senator Roark (Powers Boothe) returns to play the much-reviled villain of this chapter, the father of the notorious Yellow Bastard slain by Hartigan (Bruce Willis) before the latter met his own unfortunate death which Nancy spends the last tale trying to avenge.
It is Roark whom Joseph Gordon Levitt's brash hotshot Johnny confronts one night during the former's backroom poker game, his arrogance leading not just to his unceremonious downfall but also the death of an innocent dancer Goldie (Jaime King) whom he picks up at Kadie's.In between the two consecutive nights of poker which Johnny challenges Roark, Josh Brolin steps into the role which Clive Owen previous inhabited as private investigator Dwight McCarthy, whose former lover Ava (Eva Green) reaches out to save her from an abusive husband Damian (Marton Csokas) and his henchman named called Manute (Dennis Haysbert, who replaces the late Michael Clarke Duncan).
It's easy to take it for granted, but you have to give credit to Rodriguez for his sheer effort at reuniting such an ensemble group of cast and characters to ensure that his sequel does indeed feel, look and tell like one.In part of course that has to do with the way the 'Sin City' movies are structured; and like its predecessor, this one weaves several of Miller's lightly entangled tales into a larger narrative piece, with loose connections between the characters of each individual vignette.
after a nine year wait, we finally have sin city 2, was it worth it?, yes it was :), I caught this on the opening night with my step dad and I thought it was better and even more intense than the first movie, it had more action, more blood, more gore, more deaths, and more eye candy for the guys :-), and trust me, this is strictly for the adult crowd only, no kids allowed at all lol.
The Long Bad Night (Part I) is a two part story focusing on an entirely new character in the Sin City universe, named Johnny (Joseph Gordon Levitt), a gambler, with a secret mission.A Dame to Kill For, the main story: reveals that years before "The Big Fat Kill", Dwight McCarthy (Josh Brolin), works as a P.I, and is trying to contain his inner demons, and would give any thing to get out of the numbing hell that his life has become.
*** This review may contain spoilers *** i was waiting for sequel when i first watched Sin City (2005) for awhile great to see Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller BACK TO Direct to this sequel that i head for 9 years i have no clue what toke them to direct this sequel for a longtime i really enjoyed this flick one of my top movies in 2014 why was it better then first sequel, remember it was my opinion.New Actorsand New Characters Were Very good lucky actors i liked of the replacement why wasn't same person playing that role of first person Another character Eva Load is pretty good (Eva Green)Casino Royale James Bond, 300 Rise of Empire was awesome as Perfect Great Villain again like in (300 Rise of Empire) showing of herself Naked More in movie then 300:Rise of Empire Angelina Jole could be better for that role i won't mind seeing her in that role in movie playing Eva Load she would kick a lot more ass in this movie then Mr Ms Smith including she was with her Pregnancy but another choice was Salma Hayek,Rose McGowan,Rachel Weisz but who knows why didn't they toke role for Eva Load.
actors replaced another for Bit I find them still good and better new actor replaced (Michael Clarke Duncan)(1957-2012)may rest in peace i think why it toke a bit while for sequel because of actor past away hard to find another actor to play Michael character (Dennis Haysbert) actor of (24 TV Series)Dennis as Manute wasn't great as Michael Clarke but i could say Michael Clarke was much better actor then Dennis Haybert but i was still happy with Dennis Haybert playing Manute Better then Noting new and old characters were in different stories Nancy (Jessica Alba)old actors, old character bring them back to kick more ass in movie !
more of Nancy everyone top character i loved Jessica Alba as Nancy was only in story but she was part of movie characters like,(Mickey Rourke)Marv was crazy, Psycho Badass characterthat did a lot in this movie then first movie people wanted to have more of Marv because it was the story before everything happen in first Sin City (2005),(Rosario Dawson),(Josh Brolin)Replaced Clive Owen Character Dwight telling what happened before he turned Clive Owen.better sequel then first one i wanted to see more of Marv i know these characters did die but it is like back story for a bit then it Continued from the story what first film ended ,(Josh Brolin)as Dwight McCarthy was my favorite he kicked a lot of ass in movie was awesome good Dialogs including it was bit stupid when he gets betrayed buy Eva too much but find the scene bit stupid Dwight should have hang up he left Eva for 4 years good i expect him to run far but he comeback wanted to see her but he always loved Gail(Bruce Willis) But He Still Was role in movie like a Ghost, the story's were prequel like tellingthe story and about Characters before the first one was very interesting.
Marv rescues Dwight and takes him to the Old Town where Dwight finds his former lover Gail (Rosario Dawson) that helps him to recover while Dwight plots revenge against the manipulative Ava. The neo-noir "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" by Frank Miller is the sequel of the 2005 movie.
This being said, it would be a wise choice to watch the first movie again before you get to see its sequel because the new film refers to several events that have happened before in Sin City.The style and spirit of the movie has been copied many times after its original release in rather similar flicks like "V for Vendetta" (2006), "Max Payne" (2008) and "The Spirit" (2008) which just proves how influencing the original was.
Mickey Rourke convinces as brutal yet charming outlaw, Josh Brolin excels as broken man with a raw appearance but a soft core who definitely makes me forget that his character was performed by Clive Owen in the first film, Powers Boothe delivers as antisocial, corrupt and pitiless politician and Eva Green perfectly portrays the sexy yet evil miss misery.
The other side is filthy rich, decadent people whose greed and pride has blinded then to the point where murder is routine if it means aims are achieved.The meeting point of good and evil is a strip joint where the girls are seen as angels by some and a piece of meat for others.With a look and feel very similar to the original, with its moody conversations, the seeking of pleasure, the highly artistic cinematography dealing with the filth of sin city in a game of life and death, this movie is a trip and a joy to watch..
While it's still all admirably looking and also consists more blood and flesh, the vibe that makes the first movie so fun was lost halfway through the film, which fails to justify this as a bigger sequel.Just like the first movie, it was never about the depth of the stories, it's all about being aesthetically faithful, letting the characters do anything that can only happen in the graphic novels and embracing the lurid world.
As of the actors in the new cast: Eva Green seems to be having fun at making her psychotic character's easy seduction look like an impending devour.Newcomers might be impressed in Sin City: A Dame to Kill For, but there is already a better version out there that is more fulfilled with grim and style.
Well I guess I just like Robert Rodriguez's movies (Spy Kids films (especially No2), From Dusk Till Dawn, Planet Terror, Sin City, Machete Kills and the really cool and often forgotten 'The Faculty')IF YOU LOVED THE ORIGINAL 'SIN CITY' THEN YOU SHOULD LOVE THIS TOO.Marv and Dwight TEAM-UP...This is COOL!!!Johnny's Story (the superb Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is perhaps the weakest but is still done with GREAT STYLE.Nancy (Jessica Alba) is terrific here (a better role for her than in Sin City) and my has she changed by the end of it.Senator Roark (portrayed by Powers Boothe) is the sly, unforgiving terrific villain of the piece.And then then we get......
Fella's your just gonna love her, just not so sure you'd want to make love to her (character) as she'd eat you for breakfast.This is a really well made sequel...better in some regards (styling, Eva, the Team-up) not in others (some stories are weaker) but the STYLING and FEEL of the Film is just as COOL as EVER!There are Plenty of Fantastic Cameo Roles too...Rosario Dawson as Gail is back (and is still a busty beauty)Bruce Willis picks up a nice cheque for a few nice minutes of work.Ray Liotta gets to play with Juno Temple, the lucky fella (if they ever remake that 'BARBARELLA' film one day then it would be a close call between Juno & Alexa Vega for the Title Role)Alexa Vega is here too :-) but blink and you'll miss her (she's one of the dancers)Christopher Lloyd has a fun little role as a Doc tending to Johnny.Jeremy Piven gets on the wrong end of his infatuated cop buddy.Special mention for Dennis Haysbert as Manute who I think did a sterling job of standing in for the sadly departed Michael Clarke Duncan.The only cameo that was disappointing was the super looking Jaime King but at least there were two of her :-)BEST CAMEO?
Unfortunately, the numerous delays in these years for this sequel have influenced a bit 'on the final quality, but it is still enjoyable, and especially to the eyes of us boys.The film is logically recommended for fans of this genre splatter / thriller, in particular for those who have read the graphic novel or who already know the saga , because they've seen the first Sin City in 2005.I hope that "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" will have a revenge against the negative critics with good sales when the film will be released on Blu-ray/DVD and with digital download on : Google TV, iTunes , PSN , Xbox Media Video and convince Miller and Rodriguez and concluding the saga with the third chapter.
But with this one we get a look into the lives of the characters from the first in a bit more depth, some stories set before Sin City 1, some after.They still decided to stick with that whole, black & white, "Film Noir" style, using colour only to highlight things and for not-so- subtle symbolism, such as green eyes when a certain someone tries to control people with lust and envy.Bruce Willis was also sorely lacking from this film, showing up only once or twice, which is understandable considering the first movie, I won't say more for fear of spoilers, but it was still a bit sad.
Quickie Review:After 9 years Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller brings us back to the world of Sin City with the sequel A Dame to Kill For. The movie follows four different interweaving short stories, each focusing on a particular character.
Complete with the graphic novel visual style, woven story lines, and inner monologues, A Dame to Kill For does everything to keep it faithful to the experience of the original Sin City.
Meanwhile, there's the tale of the temptress the titular suffix is referring to, Ava (Eva Green), who's got embittered tough guy Dwight (Josh Brolin) wrapped around her little finger.In an industry where the cash cow sequel is quickly churned out to a hugely successful film, writer/director duo Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez have shown admirable restraint, if nothing else, by making fans wait nearly a decade for this follow up to 2005's adaptation of Miller's graphic novel starring Bruce Willis, who has only intermittent moments this time round as a mere spook.
The sequel, Sin City 2 IS a film noir - and people didn't like it.Personally, I thought it was better than the original.One thing stands out though: why were Jessica Alba and Rosario Dawson billed higher that Eva Green, since this movie is about her?
The movie like the original is split up into three different stories that follow around three different characters in Sin City.
