Sin City, 2005 - ★★★★


In nine years I don't think anything else has come close to capturing the style of Sin City. It many ways it's a shame that the over the top violence distracts from stunning look of the film. This really is one of the most beautiful films I've seen and a rare occasion when an effects lead film stands the test of time. Unfortunately there's too much story for one film which means things drag on but I also wouldn't know what to lose. Perhaps if Sin City were being filmed today it would be as a TV series and I have a feeling that the episodic format would have been a better fit.
