Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

Sin City 2 didn't impress me much. The visuals are again properly dark and original, adding two distinctive and perfect characters like Eva Green, whose tits haven't changed at all since 300: Rise of an Empire, and the very talented and perfect Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who really enjoyed his role and I'm with him, he just could have been given more space. What I see as a minus is the lack of blood, these white splashes don't impress much and overall I didn't have as much fun here as I did with the first one, so Sin City 2 doesn't take 4* from me. 65% (09/24/2014)

I didn't believe that anything bad could come out of this film, but it did. The new plotlines that Miller wrote for the film aren't particularly interesting and perhaps are overly stylized. Above all, the new Nancy is a monster. A Dame to Kill For lacks the necessary charge, and the overall stylization seems somewhat strange to me. It's like it's a different Sin City than the first one, different in terms of approach and the filming itself. It still has its good moments, but there are too few of them. Unfortunately. Most of the characters are just there as decorations. (10/09/2014)

The second to Sin City is again full of very suggestive and imaginative visuals, but story-wise it is noticeably weaker than its predecessor, which had the primacy of the first (and therefore novel) film. From the cast, the one who impressed me was Eva Green, who enjoyed her role properly. In short, a sequel that didn't need to be made at all, but then again I would be lying if I said that the screening was a waste of time. (09/22/2014)

Not much has changed since the first part. And that’s despite that fact that ten years have passed since its release. Once again, the world of Sin City is brutal and unpleasant. It will literally make you vomit. Once again, all the people here are either guys who are ripped or half-naked chicks. Gallons of gray blood are dripping through the screen and there is the odd good moment, but that doesn’t save the entire movie like it did with the first part. But I must say I liked Josh Brolin’s character very much. I liked his cynical attitude to everything, which is something I miss in movies in general. But for instance, Eva Green’s acting performance was such that I’m starting to get pretty bored with her. She is exactly the same in everything. Tough, mean and cranky. I really like her as an actress, but too much is too much. Well and Bruce Willis? Could somebody please try and explain to me why he even makes an appearance in this movie? It didn’t make any sense whatsoever. He’s away throughout most of the story, then he shows up, says something and disappears again. He was probably there only for the effect. Which could be said about the entire movie. (08/27/2015)

Slightly weaker than the previous film (what wasn't in the comics and what Frank Miller invented just for this film is really extraneous), but still a very good and stylish spectacle. It's not playing at anything, it wants to be gritty noir trash full of inner monologues, fatality, sex, and blood... and it is. (04/27/2019)
