You wanna see what Rodriguez has got?

This film is one that will polarize. Either you'll hate it or love it.

I love it. I think it's a masterpiece of digital movie-making.

Mickey Rourke is outstanding as Marv. Clive Owen as Dwight makes a case for taking over as the Punisher. Benicio is bone-chillingly great as Jackie-Boy. And don't forget the dames, all of whom have unique character and styles. Rosario Dawson can whip me anytime she likes. Meow baby.

Sin City will not show you characters or situations that jive with your everyday existence. It will show you a sinister metropolis populated with odd souls, cool cars and dark nights.

It's replete with graphic violence from classic graphic novels. It's high on it's own gloom, it's seedier than an everything bagel, it's Gothic atmosphere evokes the Borgo Pass.

Thank you Frank and Robert. You've made the film I've been waiting for. As a comic book fan and cinema buff, your movie is a dream come true. There are lots of comic movies, but SIN CITY has just entered the elite eschelon.
