Passed as a sequel

It can be regarded as the expansion piece of the first episode.
The combination of prequel + postquel as the main axis limits the use of the film's narrative techniques. In the first episode, the echoes are very clever, adding the extended atmosphere of sin city, which is very enjoyable. In the second episode, the beginning and the end are the post-queue part, and the pre-queue content is interspersed in the middle, which makes the focus of the film itself blurred. In addition, the fighting is too simplified. The Asian Samurai girl who changed is deducted points, and eva has added points for the breasts, but Alba is only darkened to the gray level, and the revenge is simple and straightforward and the points are deducted, which is considered a pass. Looking forward to the third part next year...

    To be honest, compared to the first movie, this is really bad. Eva Green selling meat is just a gimmick and can't save the movie (but Eva was born as a charming character)

    In fact, as long as it doesn't compare with the first one, the whole movie is pretty good. After all, this picture style is too rare. After ten years, no second movie can make a visual movie with such a strong contrast and such distinctive features. However, the regression in the plot is obvious. It feels like the integration of several short films, and there is no necessary connection on the main line. The three short films are still the one of Eva Green, and Eva is really naturally charming.

  • Dwight McCarthy: I've taken a beating before, but never anything like this. Never like this.

    [punch echoes]

    Dwight McCarthy: The sounds go wet. Maybe he keeps hitting me, I don't know. I'm gone. Gone to that place where there's no pain or thought. I wake up in mid air. The pavement rushes up to give me a big sloppy kiss.

  • Dwight McCarthy: You're insane.

    Ava Lord: No, Dwight. A crazy person would be anyone who belives me. And that would be you.
