I just went to see this film and i must say its the most far fetched film I have ever seen but also one of the most entertating. All three storylines were briliant, especially Mice Rourke as the vigilante trying to avenge the death of Goldie. Alot of cameos, and even the imperious Michael Clarke-Duncan was brilliant even though his role was small
What do you peeps who watched thin of this film

The Film visualy was outstanding. The script was awful - I know it's based on a graphic novel, it was a mishmash of wannabe film noir that didn't sound hard boiled but glossy. Willis was rubbish again - time to retire I think! Benicio Del Toro was wasted. the female roles were weak, Noir femme fetals are usually strong with significant roles. I know Miho kicked some ass but she had to wait for Clive Owen to tell her to. In the days of Baffy and Kill bill this representation of women seems old hat. The action was good thou and so was Mickey rourke.

Sin City, in a word, FANTASTIC. I know women aren’t supposed to enjoy this type of films but damn I was blown away, from beginning to end, it’s absolutely incredible. The film is in black and white with the occasional splash of colour used so appropriately, just brilliant.
Don’t expect good story lines… it’s very simple typical comic book story lines… you know the Women are always scantily dressed, and the men are macho and very simple, fighting and killing anyone that gets in their way lol. Some cheesy story lines and cliché scenes.
The scene with Rosario Dawson and Clive Owen has to be the most ridiculous, so cliché I had to laugh out loud.
Mickey Rourke (Marv) is just as bad as he wanna be … he completely steals the show as the indestructible menace tearing through Sin City. He also had the majority of the cheesiest lines. But his sequence was by far the best.
I didn’t even recognise Benicio Del Toro and I agree they could have done more with him.
Oh yeh, Elijah Wood’s character was good, made me cringe a few times there, some awful scenes.
I enjoyed it so much i am going to watch it again during the week
4.5 out of 5

I saw it over the weekend and I'd say it is the best comic book adaption turned into a film. It stays true to the original story and characters without fabricating and changing sh*t around.
Excellent movie.

Ermm Rosario Dawson BLEW jessica alba out the water chuuups!
N e way I was bored for the first 10-15 mins, until the 2nd story began and then I became very interested until Bruce appeared on the screen again.
I was loving the hint of colour amongst the black and white shots-very artistic. The outfits of the women wicked-I'm thinking of getting one for meself 
...as for plot and storyline...not great...i would give it about a 5/6 out of 10 K

@BT why waste a damn good film on a small screen? Come on its not every day we get a good film… trust me this is a must see on big screen film…
Go to Peckham bro it’s only £3.50 hardly breaks the bank and am sure you could afford two hours of your time… if your busy try and catch the late showing usually around 11:55 pm… best time really.

Who said my tv screen was small ,

I just saw it today after getting back from work, at the comfort of my house, and I must say its quite good, a bit confusing since I didn't think it was one of those film you have to pay to much attention too, so might watch it again.......(ahhh the joy of having a copy of it).
Overall I think the film is Excellent... JUst got Madagascar.... prob watch tonight.......

| I saw it last night. The film is the bomb. Bits of it were so violent I had to watch through my fingers but Rourke, Dawson, King, Aoki and Alba smashed it!!! Visually stunning and MUST be watched on the big screen. Elijah Wood was scary. Rourke should be Oscar nominated he was wicked!!

Its an 3d animation movie... in the line of finding nemo, I don't think its out yet, but to some it up
Its about a zebra (played by chris rock)- In a new york zoo... yarning to go into the wild to see what life would be like.....
everything leads to one another... basically then ended up in a real jungle... and things aint as caught out as they he thought it would be...
Some funny moments, but couldn't concentrate on the film, cause my friend called me halfway...

Excellent movie.
You hit it spot on...
I got Sin City comics and the film is the best ever adaptaion of any comic book. Frame for frame and quote for quote.
To give you an idea, I did not feel like i was watchin a new film.

Co-sign. Anybody who followed the comic book should like this movie. I know i did one of the reason why I think they stuck strictly to the story was because of the violence that is in the comic. I feel like if the comic didn't have the violence that it did they would have fabricated the story to make in more interesting.
