Featuring a memorable ensemble of characters and truly eye popping costume design, Sin City is energetic and heart poundingly thrilling over the top fun. It would be easy to mistake it for an animation, it peculiarily looks just like a comic book, yet it never strays from looking realistic. The world in which it is set is absolutely stunning, stylishly shot with eye for detail, with murky, eery, black, beautifully lit set pieces that are absolutely cartoonish but feel physically existent. I found the CGI effects and gore very convincing but not once did they distract me from it's brilliant interlocking plot and it's strong characters and exceptional writing. It sometimes goes from being knowingly amusing to incredibly straight faced the next, and it's easy to go along with it. There have been many adaptations of graphic novels that have never managed to capture the atmosphere, the overall tone, the visual spark and the characters from it's inspiration, but Sin City is an exception. Sin City is nothing less than a pulpy, fantastically violent, visually incredible neo noir thriller.
