Sin City (2006, DVD)

Incredible visual style, like watching a comic book. Star-studded film with great character development. Good for fans of Tarantino, The Matrix, Kill Bill

I didnt care for this movie at all! For anyone who hates to see blood and gore throughout the whole movie, this is not for you!

I thought this movie was very disturbing! If you like that kind of thing, then this movie is definitely for you!

Without a doubt this is a groundbreaking movie, the cinematography, and backlighting that was done alone make this must see. Put together Rodriguez, Miller, and Guest tarintino and you have direction at its finest. All Directors left there own brand on this, try and find the Two disc set and enjoy all the extras, especially the green screen portion, you really learn to appreciate how far actors go to make movies like this.
MUST SEE!

I have searched for this flick for three months and can't find a replacement for the copy I lent a friend! Thank you for the courteous service you have shown me! akbolts

Sin City BLEW ME AWAY

Sin City features one of the best casts ever assembled for an action/comic book movie. The story is superb and the action is second to none.

The entire movie is edge of your seat material and offers up enough twists and turns to keep even the most uninterested persons attention.

Final Verdict:

5/5

Rent or Buy?: I'd marry Sin City if I could, it's that good. Trust me, buy it now and thank me later.

IF YOU FIND THIS REVIEW HELPFUL PLEASE REMEMBER TO VOTE. Thank you.

Great movie with many top of the line actors. Has a jumping story line kinda like Pulp Fiction. Non stop action from begining to end.

Blockbuster06 cheated me out of money. No return emails. Nothing. What I liked about the seller when I bidded on Sin City was that he recieved 100% feedback. I do have the track number and need ebays help to stop him from making a new account.

Amazing preformances bookended by a visual style that is so unique. The use of Black and White with splashes of color highlites make this a treat for the eyes and senses. It has many interesting stories spaced throughout, with name actors that you recognize (and some so made up they are strangers)

Great seller, fast and as promised. Packages product with care. Brand new like condition, highly recommended!

Other than the graphics, and the colour scheme, I was not too impressed.

Comparing this to other comic book stories, like batman begins, and spider-man, this movie was not worth it at all.

I'm not sure why there was so much hype for the movie, and exactly why the reviews are so good. But I'm not a comic book fan, but some movies can be impressive (batman begins), this one is not.

The graphics in this one are extraordinary. This is one of those movies that got mixed reviews, at best, from critics but seems to have found its audience. The main character's narration is an integral part of the story and helps explain how he saves the day and Jessica Alba and Rosario Dawson hold their own. Give this one a try if you're looking for something that goes beyond formulaic movies.

The style of Sin City was one of a kind and yet you could still get a feel for the roots of where this movie came from.. I never read the Frank Miller comics that spawned this orginal and very entertaining movie but that isn't necessary.. This movie is not for people who don't like Black & White films, Disturbing scenes, or storylines that move around quickly (some people will get a little confused) The cast was picked well with the small exception of Jessica Alba (I've always thought you shold be able to act to be in movies) but she is a beautiful woman, can't lie there.. Bruce Willis, Clive Owens and others do an excellent job of moving things along.. I was suprised to see the actors Powers Boothe & Rutger Houer of which I havn't seen in awhile both with supporting roles.. Overall good story by Miller, Good directing in general & one of the most non-hollywood movies to come out of hollywood..

This is a great movie. It is like a roller coaster ride. Non stop action with a great plot. An excellent homage to the comic world.

I loved this movie, because it was non-stop action. All the stories had a plot and they all tied together. I never read the comic book, so I had no preconceived notion, the Movie stands on its own. The graphics, color schemes just adds to the excitement and separates Sin City from other movies. I have probably watched it twenty times so far and I never get tired of it.

very helpful through payment process and very prompt deliver thanks for the help would definetly order from here again

This is one of the stupidest movies I have ever seen. I missed a minute of it and was lost through the rest. The story jumped around so much it was very had to realize what was going on.

Welcome to Sin City. This town beckons to the tough, the corrupt, the brokenhearted. Some call it dark. Hard-boiled. Then there are those who call it home. Crooked cops. Sexy dames. Desperate vigilantes. Some are seeking revenge. Others lust after redemption. And then there are those hoping for a little of both. A universe of unlikely and reluctant heroes still trying to do the right thing in a city that refuses to care. The central story follows Marv (Mickey Rourke), a tougher-than-nails street-fighter who has always played it his way. When Marv takes home a Goddess-like beauty named Goldie (Jaime King), only to have her wind up dead in his bed -- he scours the city to avenge the loss of the only drop of love his heart has ever known. Then there's the tale of Dwight (Clive Owen), a private investigator perpetually trying to leave trouble behind, even though it won't quit chasing after him. After a cop is killed in Old Town, Dwight will stop at nothing to protect his friends among the ladies of the night. Finally, there's the yarn of John Hartigan (Bruce Willis) -- the last honest cop in Sin City. With just one ticking hour left to his career, he's going out with a bang as he makes a final bid to save an 11 year-old girl from the sadistic son of a Senator... with unexpected results.
Based on the Sin City graphic novels by Frank Miller.

I have a hard time seeing how anybody could not be blown away by this movie especially if you are a lover of film. The movie is so rich with story and character development that it almost seeps out of the screen. I think most audience members will walk away with a favorite story line and character whether it be Marv the tough as nails fighter with a heart of gold, or Hartigan the lone bright spot on a corrupt police force, or the flawed but ultimately good Dwight. Each story arc is so rich and deep that you are drawn into Sin City where there are so many tales of good and evil that they crisscross in a patchwork that makes up the very city itself. The movie is the story, it is the characters that make up the story and it is a tale of good versus evil set in the background of a city as rich as the stories that are told about it.

You could rave about the movies beauty as well, the film noir effect, the black and white and the color mixed in that gives the movie its depth and it richness. The use of color is a story in itself the tales may be black and white, good versus evil but the characters and what they bring to the tales are the color, they are that splash of red on an ordinary gray wall, the blood that has gushed out from the battles fought within and without. Its Goldie’s bright light, her golden color that shines on Marv’s heart and makes him wage a battle for her, it is her goodness her color that seeps into him. Granted there are some who may be turned off by the violence and the gore and the ultimate brutality that is the film, but like the characters who revel in it I too reveled in the violence and the brutality and the cost of waging war against evil.

The movie also has the most stellar cast of actors that it is impossible to even know where to begin when talking about their performances. My favorite was easily Mickey Rourke and Marv as he brought a savagery to the film and like the film says he would have been home on any ancient battlefield wielding an axe to another man’s face. He is abrupt, he is passionate and it all fits the character of Marv so well. Then there is Bruce Willis and Ha

I BOUGHT THIS MOVIE BECAUSE IT IS A MOVIE THAT GETS YOUR ATTENTION WITH THE BLACK AND WHITE FILM, THE VINTAGE CARS AND THE OLD STYLE WRITING.THIS MAKES FOR A GREAT MOVIE. NOT TO FORGET THE WONDERFUL ACTORS. I CANT WAIT FOR SIN CITY 2 TO COME OUT. ITS GOING TO BE GREAT.

Good used item. Bought for less than 75% of retail new price. Very hard to beat this type of purchase.

I can not say the right write words of this one!!! It has many story that are mix into one!!!! GREAT!!!!!

This movie is actually hard for me to write a review for. I found the story lines confusing at times. The story lines have serveral different stories going on but all the characters are connected one way or another. I personally did not like this movie but I found the way it was done very interesting. It is mostly in black and white with certain features in color. I saw right away that red usually meant death. Also the actors did a great job in this movie. Just thinking about Elijah Wood's character still gives me chills. There was a huge all star cast. Good music, visual effects, and special effects. Though I personally didn't like this movie I would suggest to any one (who can handle lots of gore/blood shed) too see this movie.

Bruce willis is spectacular as the real hero in this surreal action movie that is filmed somewhat like a dark comic book. It may sound a little far fetched, but while watching it is surprisingly believable!

I loved the look of this movie. I thought it was really well done. There were many places where the movie could have went badly, but they really pulled it off. I thought the cast was good, good storyline. Most of all though, I thought it was visually stunning.

This movie has it all. Action,romance,comedy, and drama. one of the best adapted comic to movies in along time. I never really understood frank millers work, until I watched the movie and it made me go back a check out his comic work out and I was astonished. the movie hits all the good qualitys. and mickey rourk performace as marv, was awesome. if there was any higher rating I would give it one.
