I was extremely surprised by this one.
Because of the storyline I cannot get into the details of the movie, but what I can say . . . .
From the get go, the movie is visually stunning. Typical of Robert Rodriguez & some of his style mixed with the others participating in the directors seat, it gets you stuck to the seat {and later on in more ways than one}. Others have bitched about the effects & foley tracks being overpowering. My response is BULSHIT! The sound design & layering flows with what is on screen & does not detract from the overall show in any way. Those who disagree need to be reminded that this is a production based on what is in essence a comic book. EVERYTHING IS OVERPOWERING !
When you goto see Sin City, make sure to hit the rest room first, {it is over 2 hours long}, and do not plan to chat with others. Take heed of this since you will not want to miss anything, and neither will those sitting around you. Chatting people may end up like one of the bloody mutilated characters on the screen.
OHHH! I HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO THE GORE YET!
Yeah there is blood, and a ton of T & A {extremely NICE T & A too ;-}, and many, many, and even more scenes ranging from a simple gunshot injury to things I would not wish on my worst enemies. In short, if you are squeamish, cannot stand blood, {mostly not red, but blood all the same}, and take offence of the exposed flesh of 'women of the night'. Go see a fucking Disney movie because this show is not for you.
The rating scale: 1/2 soda, no smoke break, no pee break. And add on that all of us thought it was overall one of the best flicks we have seen in a LONG time. And when you have people who work @ a theatre & literally see every movie {whether we want to or not}.
That says a lot.
Blessed Be, and don't forget to reset your clocks this weekend.
