Now, after watching the 3 hours of Little Britian, my sides really do hurt. Although I’d seen much of them, watching them again and watching new episodes was brilliant and I can’t wait for the third series to air. Okay, now on to the main feature.
I was weary about ‘Sin City’ at first because I don’t really get into comic book movies but this adaptation was truly awesome. Even though it’s all done in a black and white feel, the use of specific colours really works and adds contract to scenes. It uses voiceovers and scene speech that interact with each other to great effect and it adds a personal touch to it. The actors in it were all great except for one which I noticed. The ‘Legally Blonde’ star Reese Witherspoon seemed to overact all her parts and she didn’t seem like the other characters – it seemed like something out of a crap Western. Anyway, the storyline was great, considering it was taken from a comic book, and the mix of computer graphics at certain points with reality made it get back in touch with it’s origins: the comic book. Although it’s classed as an (18) , it shouldn’t really in my opinion. Yes there’s blood, gore, sex, nudity and foul language but I think it should have been a (15) because it isn’t all that bad. Overall this film brings reality and the sub-normal world of a comic book to life with a mix of creative imagery, sound and mixes them together to create a wonderful piece of art with high-class actors that do the film justice.
Oh, I officially, really hate Internet Explorer. Goodday.
