There are all sorts of prosiac, film studious ways of describing FRANK MILLER'S SIN CITY. But the best way to describe it is that it takes film making to a new level, especially for graphic novels/comic books.
In a word, SIN CITY rocks. Unapologetic, in your face, makes you want it bad rocks.
The scene compositions, the dramatic lighting, the high contract adjustments to simulate the look and feel of the original graphics novels proves that Rodriguez is a master of film. He also assembled a stellar cast, and used them all to the best possible advantage. It's impossible to single anyone out, because then all the actors and their performances would have to be listed.
Rodriguez and Miller, co-directors, did an amazing job. If you aren't already aware, Rodriguez resigned from the Director's Guild to do this, as he felt Miller had to be co-director. He also won over Miller by producing the opening sequence to show him his vision of SIN CITY.
The Guerilla film-making mentality of Rodriguez, who scored, shot, edited, and more, as well as co-directing, proves yet again that while it may take cajones to do it yourself, it pays off in the end.
FRANK MILLER'S SIN CITY is a must see, pay prime money, and get the DVD
