Alternative interpretation...
Being a big Rodriguez(sp?) fan, I recognize certain themes throughout his work.
I propose that Sin City is actually an alternative biblical interpretation of the story of Jesus...now bear with me...
The main story, as it were, revolves around the hulking, proto Judas who seeks to destroy the antichrist as played by Frodo Baggins-boy. Frodo's character is a harbinger of doom instead of light who brings misery and pain and devours the flesh of the downtrodden instead of provided his own symbolic blood and flesh to bring hope and solace to the weak. Its anti-transubstantiation. Note the prominent crooked cross on the forehead of Bruce Willis' character the fallen christ figure who offers up his life to the concept of purity. What really was cool was that Rudger Hower's death is exactly the way he dispatched his nemesis in Bladerunner...Rodriquez works on many levels and I dig every one of them... - jim , posted 07/22/06

Death by dire monologue! Killing by cliche!
A visual treat but when the impact of the eye candy wore off, I actually walked out 3/4 of the way through the movie because I couldn't stand another line uttered in a broken-sentenced deep voice saying that they walked into the bar and the broads all knew what a man they were, except her, she was different... YAWN! - Yasir , posted 11/30/05

Exelent CG and RL cinematography
Artistic in every aspect, still catches the attention of the viewer. I bow to all that worked on this film. - Nathan , posted 11/09/05

I thought it was going to be about Las Vegas!
But seriously, I saw it twice in theaters, which I rarely do, and I loved it even more the second time. - Preston , posted 10/08/05

Sin City puts life in a different way than usually movies...It looks like a comic book like Kill Bill did but blew it off way better...All the actors and actresses pull the movie off Great...awesome coloring too - Candace , posted 09/12/05

What a movie....
I had high expectations for Sin City. I loved the graphic novels, I love Robert Rodriguez, and I love many of the actors. I was not disappointed. It exceeded my expectations and made me hopeful about the future of movies. - Unsubscribed , posted 04/22/05
