Tagline: Walk down the right back alley in Sin City and you can find anything.

Plot: Sin City is a violent city where the police department is as corrupt as the streets are deadly. In this movie, we follow three stories, the central of which is Marv, a tough-as-nails and nearly impossible to kill street fighter who goes on a rampage of vengeance when a beautiful woman, Goldie (King), he sleeps with for only one night is killed while lying in bed with him.

Agreed, the Robocop sequels were all awesome...and I can't wait for Elektra...

Frank Miller makes me not want to see this movie almost...it's more or less a ripoff of Within One Bullet anyway.

C'mon Robocop was good for it's day. And the sequels, well...... they're sequels. As for Elektra, I'm not into the whole female superhero thing.  From the trailer it looks as though they did a good job of re-creating the dark style Miller uses in his comics. I only know Clive Owen from Closer. Where else might I have seen him?

He was King Arthur (the only redeeming factor of that trash), he was the protagonist in "The Hire," he was Lev Arris in Privateer 2, and he was in Croupier.

Sin City looks fucken awesome. I dig how they are using CG in the movie. Very impressive

Yeah, similiar has been done before like with Pleasantville, but the cast makes it look cooler  :)

Rodriguez isn't always great, but he's very good at visualizing shots.

I haven't read any Frank Miller as I RARELY read comics, but Sin City's reputation is huge.
