Three stories weave together, occasionally overlapping. In the most caustically dramatic segment, Mickey Rourke plays the fearlessly lovestruck Marv,
Brutal and breathtaking, Sin City is Robert Rodriguez's stunningly realized vision of Frank Miller's pulpy comic books. In the first of three separate but loosely related stories, Marv (Mickey Rourke in heavy makeup) tries to track down the killers of a woman who ended up dead in his bed. In the second story, Dwight's (Clive Owen) attempt to defend a woman from a brutal abuser goes horribly wrong, and threatens to destroy the uneasy truce among the police, the mob, and the women of Old Town. Finally, an aging cop on his last day on the job (Bruce Willis) rescues a young girl from a kidnapper, but is himself thrown in jail. Years later, he has a chance to save her again.

- sin city
- An all-star cast in one of the best films ever made. You have to be high to not like this film. It has 3 or four stories that are not hard to follow at all. The action is hardcore and the ladies of Old Town are capital H-O-T. One thing I love is the black and white of the film and how only certain things are More reviews
- Review of Sin City DVD with book
- Since I played the Judge in the movie I look for items now and then from the movie and found I didn't have this particular item. The book was in good shape as was the DVD. It arrived in a timely manner and if asked I would do business with this person again. More reviews
- great movie
- This was a "must own", several storylines that interacted with eachother. I thought it would be hokey, but I really enjoyed it, even though it was a little dark & violent. Perfect for Blu-ray, even the extras...this will be a classic if not already in its genre More reviews
- Buying for Significant Other
- Nothing I've bought -- or will buy -- is for me. They are for a Viet Nam Vet who is slowly dying of Agent Orange poisoning, is confined to wheelchair due to combat injuries, and has currently become interested in Blu-Ray.
He's asked me to buy specific Blu-Rays of late, the first one having been from Amazon. He reimburses for all purchases. I will do anything More reviews
- Looks great
- This movie pops in Blu-ray format. Black stay true and colors jump off the screen More reviews
