Sin City Storyline

Pivoting around four stories from Frank Miller’s Sin City universe, three tainted anti-heroes of Basin City, the cradle of crime and corruption, cross paths in their search of redemption. On the brink of retirement, Detective John Hartigan, the vile city’s last honest cop, breaks every rule in the book in his crusade to save the innocent eleven-year-old girl, Nancy Callahan, from the clutches of the well-connected child molester, Roark Junior. Meanwhile, in another part of the town, bearing the deep scars of endless fights, Marv, the hulking ex-convict and grotesque brute with the killer fists, finds himself framed for a crime he didn’t commit, hell-bent on revenge and murder. Finally, as a bloody act of justice in the Old Town, the city’s red-light district, threatens the already delicate truce between the local prostitute community and the police, the taciturn private eye, Dwight McCarthy, becomes a protector after helping their cause. Can there be justice without sin?

Sin City Movie Reviews

Polarised opinion

There are some movies where it is difficult to offer excessive praise or condemnation – one expects to see them gain average marks from IMDb critics. Then there are those which polarise opinions: viewers love the movie or hate it. Sin City is one of those: it is very difficult to feel indifferent to it, and it’s as well to know that going in.

If you’re going to hate it, this will be because of the very high level of violence, brutality, and perceived misogyny. Well, if you’re someone who fights shy of that sort of thing then I suggest steering clear of Sin City. It is violent and brutal.

But the violence is stylised – as is everything in the film – simply because it has been sourced directly from the pages of Frank Miller’s comics. You can read the comics along with the movie and hear every word you read, and see every frame converted to movement. As someone who loves the comics, I thought initially that this would be a good thing. And it is, but it’s also a bad thing because the film holds no surprises – none, count ’em, zero – for anyone who is familiar with the books.

For all that it is a striking, and largely successful, exercise in converting narrative from one medium to another.

The cast is uniformly excellent.

A Visual Achievement

A film that explores the dark and miserable town, Basin City, and tells the story of three different people, all caught up in violent corruption.

Although the use of digital filming and CGI is very contentious, Robert Rodriguez found a way to make it work to his advantage in a way that may not have been possible with traditional film. The way the black and white brings the noir to life, blending smoothly with the rare other colors… it is the only way to bring a comic book to life. (A similar style is in “The Spirit”, which does not get nearly the respect it deserves.)

This casting is incredible, as it is varied and really brought the best performances out of Alexis Bledel, Rosario Dawson and Jessica Alba that their careers ever had. Mickey Rourke was re-invented, and this may have been one of the last great Bruce Willis roles. Such a powerful film.
