Sin City *movie*

[seppe]

i havn't seen sin city yet, but everyone says it's an masterpiece, have you guys seen it already?

I saw it on saturday and yes, it is a masterpiece. The cinematography is mindblowing. You could pause it anytime and hang that frame on the wall.

Sin city is easily the best comicbook adaptation to date, and it is one of greatest movies in couple of years.

Although i've seen a dozen movies that i liked far better, even the last couple of years, it's awesome. It reminded me of Max Payne in many ways, which is good. I loved the style, the story and everything about it.

tbh then i was kinda disappointed after having seen it, but thats because i mainly gave into alot of the hype.

Its a really awesome movie, no doubt, the visual style is mindblowingly cool and such. The story just didnt do anything for me, but hey, its a totally mindless action movie so wth

I thought it was almost entirely a crappy movie with only a few really good parts.

Come on! The dialogue was absolute drivel with people spewing it like sour milk all over your mothers drapes. It was just absolutly blah to me. Sure some of the visuals were cool but on the greater whole they were mostly just normal old black and white noir looking stuff.

Man you guys should check out Chinatown if you want noir.

Atleast that movie's good.

Funny my reaction was also meh for similar reasons, but it's pretty clear the filmmakers knew how it would land when they made it. The intention was to make it feel like it was a literal port of the comic book to the big screen. That means really cheesy bad dialogue and over the top action/visuals. I mean it definitely had a tight style and they kept it pretty consistent, so I'd say the accomplished what they intended. Personally, I don't care for comic books that much so the less a movie about a comic book or comic book character feels like a comic book the better.

Case in point: the latest Batman movie blows away all the previous 4.

Anyway, there was some cool stuff in Sin City like that Japanese assassin chick and Jessica Alba's...everything.

Aah, gotta love mapcore's taste in movies.

jessica alba was in it.....normally that would be a good thing....but when we're talking about if a movie is good or not.....yeah its a bad thing

A movie can be good even if it has flaws.

Mention one flawless film... there is flaws in every film ever made, but its just a question of personal taste

There are some films I consider to be flawless even if they necessarily aren't.

I'll probably get bashed for my answer but I don't care: Braveheart, Schindler's List, Raiders of the Lost Ark.
