I just saw the movie today!
Although graphically violent, it was so weird that it actually made it very good.
My rating is 8/10. :thumbs:

 

[xLostx]

yeah this movie was unreal, kept up with the comic book, way different type of movie that I usually see but it roxed

 

[Pressure]

I saw the movie last night and I absolutely loved it. Definetly gonna pick this one up on DVD.

 

[CrazyHarij]

God, I loved this movie. There's always a special place in my heart for gritty B&W film noir, it's so wonderful to see a new fresh homage to this.

Definitely one of the better films I've seen.

 

[Doppelgofer]

thought it was ****ing amazing beyond words....getting it when it comes out

 

[Asuka]

GREAT MOVIE! Very hard for anything coming up to beat this.

 

[Raziaar]

Just got back from watching this movie. VERY twisted. And very good. It's a bit confusing sometimes for someone like me who never read the comics, but the movie was very well done, if a bit over the top sometimes. Heh. But that only added to the quality.

I thought it was very, very good. Tons of violence, but they did it in such a way that the scenes which are really supposed to pack a punch in that respect still do- no becoming desensitized to it. It was probably one of the best films I've seen in a long, long time, but I've always been a fan of film noir. I've got the comics on order now.

I just saw it yesterday. I enjoyed it. That's about all I can say about it though. I definitely wouldn't come close to putting it in the great/amazing/unreal category. I love the innovation with regards to the visuals, I liked camera work, I liked the look of everything. All of that was great, but beyond that I felt nothing. I couldn't have cared less what happened to the characters and the story felt shallow.

I've never read the source material though, so I'm not really surprised at how I felt. All in all I liked it, but I'm definitely nowhere near the enjoyment level that some people got from it. To each their own. I'd recommend it to most people.

loved the movie, two favorite quotes that i loved where.

Marv: There's no settling down. It's going to be blood for blood and by the gallons. It's the old days. The bad days. The all-or-nothing days. They're back.

and

Dwight: It's time to prove to your friends that you're worth a damn. Sometimes that means dying. Sometimes it means killing a whole lot of people.

it also reminded me of one thing, You dont **** with bruce willis

 

[MarcoPollo]

Loved it. Plus Alexis bleddel is teh hawt sexx!

 

[Raziaar]

Loved it. Plus Alexis bleddel is teh hawt sexx!

Heh. Yeah. Ever since I first saw her on Gilmore girls(don't watch the show), I liked her. Got a very nice face and love her eyes.

 

[MarcoPollo]

Yeh the Cinematography in sin city was amazing

 

[oldagerocker]

The Story line confuised me, im gonna have to watch it again. Absolutely loved the film though, best one i've seen in a long time, but very odd.

Spoiler

The dude with the scars and funny voice... was that marv that got dunked in piss? Im utterly confused what his story with the killing of the Cardinal had to do with the Cop, played by Bruce willis? Someone explain it to be, i r teh newb.

Dunked in the piss? That happened twice in the movie. Marv dunked someone when he was looking for answers about Goldie, then Dwight dunked Benicio Del Toro's character.

Just remember they're seperate stories. They don't necessarily have to relate to each other. Some characters appear in both stories though (like Nancy).

I think the order goes like this:
Hartigan's story
Marv's story
Dwight's story
Hartigan's story continued

 

[oldagerocker]

Oh i see... thats where i got confused.

Spoiler

I thought Del Toro's character was Marv, they had the same sort of voice and when Dwight said he'd cut him up, i thought thats where the scars would come from.

I'm going to have to watch this film again with this new information

 

[MarcoPollo]

yeh...you do. So do I, I wasn't really completely awake when I saw it.

 

[baron insig]

those trailers make it looks so bloody cool

 

[DeusExMachina]

Oh i see... thats where i got confused.

lol.

Spoiler

No no no. If you read A Dame to Kill For, you'll see Marv and Dwight are friends (though Dwight kinda uses him for his own means).

Order of story:
The Customer is Always Right (Intro to the movie)
That Yellow Bastard
The Hard Goodbye
The Big Fat Kill
That Yellow Bastard Continued

 

[Recoil]

Just saw it and I'm quite disappointed, probably awaited too much (or sth different). It didn't give me anything.

3/10

Though many of my favorite actors are cast and Rodriguez directed... I liked the last ~25 minutes best.
