This has to rank up there with Donnie Darko as one of my favourite films i've ever seen, will definately become a modern day classic over the next few months.
The action comes in the form of stories about characters from Sin city and intertwined with each other perfectly as they mostly go about exacting revenge generally for someone being killed, Marv played by Mickey rourke is brilliant and in my opinion easily the star of the film as he avenges the killing of Goldie, a whore he's infatuated with that was killed while he slept at the side of her.


Brilliant from start to finish but definately not one for the squeamish. Countless castrations, head's rolling about on the floor without bodies and a guy who gets his head caved in too.

Oh yeah it's totally shot in black and white with highlights of colour on certain objects, such as the guy called 'Yellow bastard'.

Just listen to the film review on five live and it said a visual pleasing film with lots of violence's but ultimately very shallow with no story or direction. so I guess I will wait for it on sky. :huh:
 
But the film god that is Mark Kermode was on holiday this week. so will wait for the definitive review next week.

But Jb your right about Donnie Darko. great film

Hippy

Donnie Darkos a great film. I could watch it over and over.

I wanna see Sin City, i might do next week.

ChimpBoy

Very pretty

Very good cast

Completely soulless and vapid

Not a film that engenders any real emotion in you apart from looking at the pretty images - jut like most recent Rodriguez films

The fanboys will love it as much as Sky Captain last year -  and that turkey stank  :(
If I wanted you to understand I would have explained it better

Saw it last night, quality. I thought the voice over stuff was trying a bit too hard to be 'comic book' at first, but it works.

I think the parts with Nancy(Jessica Alba) and Hartigan(Bruce Willis) were the best.

Highly recomended.



btw
PlanB im in love with you.

I've just watched it, excellent film, liked the black and white stuff and the colours (a few times) alot. Damn Jessica Alba is hot as usual.
I also had to think about Max Payne when I saw it.

9,5/10 for me.
