The film focuses on the different encounters of three men in'sin city'. Boxer Marvin searches every corner of the city in order to find the murderer of the mysterious woman who has one-night stand; and reporter Dwight. Persisting in his understanding of justice, he is carrying out'dark' law enforcement in this dark city; while the old police detective Hadgen is looking for witnesses who know the truth of the case in order to wash his injustice. . . This is how the three men with their own confession began their respective stories in this'dark city'. In addition to maintaining the same narrative style of the original comics, the movie itself also made certain changes to the fusion of comic scenes and real actors' performances as much as possible. It makes the movie audience seem to be in a huge comic book spread out from beginning to end. The unique black and white visual impact and the use of comic-style film language make the film almost perfect to take care of both the original fans and the movie audience. Viewing habits. And to the utmost respect the original visual effect of the original work itself. I have to say that this is one of the few works that can find an ingenious balance between the original comics and the movie audience for so many years! The reason why this is a violent pseudo-cult film is that the biggest selling point of this film is precisely the comic-style violent style, and the spirit of cult is actually more retained in some abnormalities of the movie style itself, and It's just a little bit different from Hollywood's usual tactics. For ordinary movie viewers, the style of the movie is indeed weird, but for movies that have a cult spirit in their bones, this film is really insignificant. Moreover, the film’s numerous star lineups and the use of computer special effects are obviously rushing to the box office. Therefore, "Sin City" can only be regarded as a pseudo-cult film at best. But violence, one of the biggest core selling points of the film, is not weakened by the nature of commercial films. And the murderous atmosphere in the film's bones also fits the consistent characteristics of the two directors Robert Rodriguez and his best friend Quentin Tarantino! These two "bad boys" can be regarded as the kind of people who dare to be arrogant even if they accept large amounts of "bribery" from the producer and the publisher's instigation. Therefore, it is inevitable that "Sin City" can have such a different color!
