    Sin CIty sucked donkey balls. The whole thing creaked and groaned like everything was made of wood. Clive Owen just looked bored, Jessica Alba can't act and it was just really disappointing. What got me the most was how nearly every frame was taken from the comics, no interpretation or flash of genius to elevate it a little, just exactly the same. Reminded me of the Gus Van Sant frame for frame remake of Psycho, whats the point?

    The comics were much better and felt more real and believeable (in the noir workd Miller built) than the film, so watching the film just made me want to re-read the comic to see if they were actually as good as I remembered.

    • agree to disagree i guess... this is what i loved about the film7point34
    • the effects and the frame for frame recreation7point34
    • Nah, I can't agree to that!
      But it was too similar for me, I would have loved a proper film noir of just The Big Fat Kill
