Thanks to the great help of comic author Miller and the development of DV technology, Rodriguez filmed the crime city that is known to be the closest to the original comic in history. This is a very stylized movie, mainly black and white. The gorgeous red belongs to the blood of the beauty and the protagonist, and the yellow belongs to the wretched Yellow Bastard. Such a color combination reduces the bloodiness, but makes the violence look cooler.
I have always considered Rodriguez to be a movie player, but he is far inferior to his good buddy Tarantino: the Spy kids series is a commercial junk; the killer trilogy is an innocent action battle movie. And this time, although he seems to have borrowed the editing structure of low-speed novels and was unable to do so, his performance is much stronger than before: aside from the impact of color, many characters have very unrestrained movements, and many shots are fancy.
I will continue to watch next year’s sequel, but I will definitely not watch this one again
