Breaking Windows Sin City Review

Movie Review: Sin City
I had to see this movie twice before I could even attempt to put fingers to keyboard to birth my thoughts. Even now I am having a hard time deciding where to begin. This is such a wonderfully gritty trio...

Comic Novelty On The Big Screen & More Hope For My Transmetropolitan Screenwriting Credit
Saw Sin City April 4th. I'm going to skip the clever commentary and requisite applause and refer you to the IMDB site for the details about who played who, the plot summary, and a reasonable but flattering review by SteakTheCow...

Sin City: The Movie and Lessons
Sin City moves you in a visual and gut wrenching way. The narratives immediately draw you in. The darkness of the scenes establishes a world where there is no hope and no light. It is as if daylight never comes....

Sin City: A Review
Among the random posts on IMDB.com about Sin City is the presumably high praise calling it the best adaptation of a graphic comic book ever to hit the silver screen. That's nice and all, but what does that really...

Sinful Comics
Sin City is very funny, very sexy, very violent.

Sin City
Robert Rodriguez's adaptation of Frank Miller's series of Sin City graphic novels is the latest link in an already hefty chain of films that try to overcome a lack of substance with an abundance of style. Although substantially better than...

Only the Mickey Rourke story was really good. The other stories were boring. If they had made Sin City all about Mickey Rourke, or at least put his story last, rather than first, it would've been a way better movie.
