Sin City (2005)

Sin City is a quirky 2005 film directed by Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. It stars some big names such as Jessica Alba and Bruce Willis. This film is directed in a way that is very unusual, but once you get used to it you can’t get enough of the strange settings and characters

Sin City tells the intertwining stories of three characters, who are caught up in the corrupt world of Basin city. What really makes this film stand out is that it is filmed almost entirely in black and white with only a few colours dispersed here and there on characters. It gives the film a very sinister and edgy feel to it, in my opinion only adding to its appeal.

Sin City is quite a violent film, however, it doesn’t dwell on blood and gore. The directors have strategically left out any excessive detail in the violent scenes. So even if you’re a bit squeamish about gore this film shouldn’t unsettle your stomach.

This is a really unique film and one I believe everyone should give a chance. It may not be everyone’s cup of tea but I think many people would be pleasantly surprised by the characters and story that the directors have put together.
