Sin City (2005)

Fantastic, hard-boiled, comic book movie that is sheer wild ride from start to finish. Directed by Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller, with special guest director (whatever that means) Quentin Tarantino, the film is pure Hollywood cheese and I loved every slick minute of it!

Not a movie for your kids, full of lots of violent goodness, blood, guns and impossible super-hero possibility to knock your socks off, the film follows three tough-guy stories through the crime-laden streets of Sin City, a fictitious city where vigilante law rules the streets. Filmed almost entirely in B & W, the plentiful and cool special effects, unusual characters and creative filming made it seem as if I had stepped into a comic book. Almost exactly what I want when I watch a movie.
