drainboy sent me a link to two excerpts from Sin City reviews from Rotten Tomatoes (my second favourite movie site).
They are:
"You know you’re gone beyond run-of-the-mill movie violence you need to use the plural for 'castrations.'"
and
"Film noir on steroids; a movie so cool you’re not supposed to be concerned about its total lack of moral grounding. Nor its profound sexism. Nor its misanthropic nihilism."
And yet these are supposed to be _negative_ reviews? Well, possibly the profound sexism - but I don't have any moral grounding and misanthropic nihilism is my middle name.
I've been looking forward to this since the first trailer - and I deliberately haven't re-read the comics so I can be surprised by the film...
