Any thoughts on "Sin City"?

Everything I've heard is that is really fat on visuals and styles, but low on plot lines. I've also heard they they did a poor job of stringing together story aspects from the comics.
With that said... I still plan on seeing it. It "looks" cool and I'll pay to see Jessica Alba.

Saw it last night and will give it a A-/B+. I never did read the comics but thought the effects and story was very cool. Basically, 3 stories tied into 1 movie. Cool characters all the way through and the effects (obviously, comic book like) were great! I would suggest seeing it if you liked Kill Bill, which wasn't as good as Sin City, IMO. I'll definetly buy as a DVD...
Saw it on Saturday and exactly correct.56Tweed said:
The style and effects are superb. Like a dark comic book.
Needed some help with some of the story lines/dialogue - but hey - it's a comic strip - not a documentary.
The second story with Mickey Rourke was the best!!!!!!!!!
And not enough Jessica Alba .....:halfgrinw

My wife picked this for us to see last week.
I loved it. Great acting Mickey Rourke was phenomenal. Great writing.
I had no idea it was based on a comic book. That would have helped understand some of the plot lines. I had no idea where the movie was heading through most story line.
I will buy it once it's released.
It's intense for sure.

MASTER SHAKE
We just watched this the other night and I LOVED it.
A dark Pulp Fiction. Interesting story arcs. While some parts of it are over the top I belive that is the way they are supposed to be.
I do agree Mickey Rourke was great in it. Lots of dry almost sarcastic dialoge.
Glad we bought it.

I think in the comic the stories were never supposed to be connected directly, just different events that happened in sin city.
The visuals were pretty impressive. This was the first all digital life action film, meaning it was shot with digital cameras and all the effects were all computer generated.
