SIN CITY
The butter caked on the popcorn waz thicker than green pea soup spewed out of the mouth of a demon possessed pre-Roller Boogie actress.I chomped on the greasy goodness for just under an hour in sleepy anticipation for the flickering images that waz soon to be displayed in stark black and white,with snippets of reds,greens and blues to accent the deep dirty trenches of a story of violence,sex and over the top comic book action.
I waz then transported into a world I waz slightly familiar with,yet,not enough to know the full scope of the story,which waz a good thing,cuz I waz lured into the dregz of pulp nior hypergraphical splendor.A splendor filled with taudry dames beyond compare,tough az nailz anti-heroes,stinky and grotesque villians,sleazy politicianz,leaping old school automobile beasts,chain smoking snappy inner voices and alot of wide eyed insanity!!
Yeah Baby!!
SIN CITY FREEKIN' RAWKZ!!
Now this iz filmaking,and finally someone haz done something decent using CGI!!!
I want the dvd now!!!
SIN CITY reminded me how much I love black & white filmz.Something about the lack of color bringz out the moodz and facial expressions,even the actors that have so much heavy make-up on that ya don't even recognize them.Everything iz sexier,darker,crazier and intense.
What little color ya see iz a spot here n' there,to up the ante just a bit.And sure,everyone will say that it'z all just a case of style over substance,but stories like the characters of SIN CITY haven't been told in a long time.Leave the politically correct,good guyz wear white,hurray hurray underdog comez out on top panzy storytelling to the Hollywood Blockbuster hacks.Leave it to a comic book writer to show them what characterization and action and fun at the moviez iz all about!!
And if you know anyone that doezzn't like it-
well...kick thier stinkin' teeth in for me!!
