Verdict: 'Sin City' is impressive, absolutely … but it's also a little distancing; you never quite forget you're watching one master ape another! Therein, this film is an amazingly successful attempt by Robert Rodriguez to translate Frank Miller's hard-boiled, brutally violent crime comic to the big screen. A satisfying puzzle whose pieces fit together neatly in the end, 'Sin City' is basically a visually arresting blitzkrieg with action so bare-knuckled you'll leave the theater spitting out teeth!
