Sin City… Seeing the trailer in the net and having a glimpse of Bruce Willis I thought let me watch this one hoping to see a good action movie… adding to the fact that it was in black and white, I thought the crew behind sin city has come up with something new and refreshing to be watched out for. True they did experiment something, like the operation was success and the patient dead, the experimental was good but it wasn’t good enough to make u sit for some 2 odd hours to watch it completely, I had to take turns to watch the full movie coz it was ragging me a lot. The experiment was to make it look like those old graphic picture comic novels.
True they did succeed in that, the film brought me those nostalgic moments when I go after those picture comics of super man, bat man and the likes, but the film was awfully boring. Might be the film would have been renamed as “Violence in the sex city” coz there were more lecherousness lustful characters and frames in the movie. you see here sex, violence, people who taste blood, blood- thirsty people, cannibals , whores or hookers or pimps or prostitutes, whatever and however you want to call, gun shots, skin eaters, but despite all this the film wasn’t good enough. It made me somewhat sick in the middle and I have to stop watching it, only to return back the next day to complete the movie.
The movie is split into three parts having different stories all somewhat related either to save a whore or take revenge on behalf of a hooker and the likes. I made a fool of myself when I decided to watch this coz this was Bruce Willis movie, he is hardly shown in the movie. He comes for the first ten and the last ten minutes. That’s all. I felt like a idiot when I realized that it was not a Bruce Willis movie. But certain episodes were good in the movie and it was fun watching them like the fight setting episodes , all of them were good, having got bored with the graphical sequences in the rest ( here too graphics plays a big part ) but still it was something different from the rest and it definitely stands apart in those categories. I am not sure why the team had shown a few things like red dress or the blood in real color and that too in few frames. In a nutshell it was a big bore.
But one thing which I am not able to get myself justified is the fact the Sin City 2 and 3 are in pre-production stages. When Sin City by itself didn’t impress anyone I am not sure how come its sequels gonna impress.
