movie review - Sin City
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Tokyo, 2007.08.07
This is an incessantly unpleasant and sexist movie based on a comic book series from the early '90s. The funny thing is that I was still a bit into comics at that time and recall that people who were into that series tended to be unpleasant and sexist (virgins). The male characters in this thing are usually exaggerated and are either macho-chatty or macho-silent. There are some sub-types that tend to the comically surreal and disgusting. The women are all sex objects.
The plots are loosely connected and generally OK. But I can't imagine watching this twice.
Not recommended.
