It is almost certain that in China, "Sin City" will become a film that is sought after by a small number of people. The reason why it is sought after is that this film is very different in terms of shooting techniques, film style, and content expression. Although there are a large number of big-name stars participating in the performance, this is still a cult film. But "Sin City" can't be popular, also because of its content genre and strong stylization, it is destined not to make everyone happy. The pursuit is different from the true love. Few people in China have seen the original comics. It is difficult to have a deeper understanding of the comic world in detail and as a whole, and just showing those in the movie is not enough to make people fall into it. .
The strongest feature of the film is the stylization similar to the original comics. Through digital shooting and post-production, the created picture is a panicked black and white film, like a negative, with strong contrast and emotions just by looking at the picture. Abandoning color and only coloring in parts, such as bright red lips and green eyes, the beauty outlined in this way is particularly thrilling. The body covered with Band-Aid, in this video style, looks like a person with countless holes. Feelings of loss, nervousness, anxiety, and anxiety are presented in front of the audience through the pictures. Just like prints, behind the black and white pictures are the deep and shallow traces of steel knives. The world of lost souls needs coquettishness to bring out the depth of darkness, so only red lips and blue eyes are needed. This method is not the original creation of director Robert Rodriguez. In fact, this method has been used many times in photography and some MVs in Europe and America, but it is the first time it is used in filming, which is the director's courage and wisdom.
Not only does the picture have a strong comic style, but the sub-shots also have a strong comic brand. This has to thank the original comic writer Frank Miller. Many people think that comics are a kind of nutritious thing, but in fact, a good comic artist must be all-rounder. In addition to the screen, he not only needs to be good at screenwriting, but even the skills of splitting scenes can make some directors blush.
And female audiences may be too frightened to watch the film because of its "excessive violence", but it's not necessary. Although there were indeed a lot of people who died inside, the bloody blood that was commonplace was far from enough to challenge people's moral bottom line. Beneath the violent wrapping paper, it is still a candy. Although great efforts are spent to express sin and darkness, sin and darkness are also the object of condemnation by the author. Although the male protagonist is not fighting for justice, he is all for the sake of his beloved. Women fight. In China, because of his brother, the younger brother in Guo Jingming's "Imaginary City" can exchange a "very moving" voice for the plot of the Buddha killing the Buddha, so the killing in "Sin City" may also earn a lot of moving. tears.
