No more classic

The color of the picture still continues the strong tone of black and white, and the composition also follows the style of comics. The blood red and golden pistols sprayed out of the brain, everything looks so violent and beautiful, but Quentin's withdrawal makes the film lose its soul. , Like a good corpse, all organs and tissues are there, but they are not alive.
All the beatings and all the attacks appeared to be a little bit coercive. The silly boy was taken advantage of and he didn't have the first heart to remember. The police's little heart was too fragile, and he committed suicide before he waited for anything. The gambler Johnny's thousands of skills are very powerful, but at the same time very naive, he easily believes that the big boss will surrender. The lonely tough guy is still lonely, but this time he has become a supporting role. The tricks of the femme fatale are too superficial and the performance is too staged, but the flaming red lips are still impressive. The only color stripper is really sexy, but the heart is too soft, can not help but make men feel protective. The character that I like the most is the big boss. Although it is so bad that he can't die, he is treacherous and cunning, cruel, and very sophisticated and calm. The strangest thing is that Bruce Willie is like a guest star this time, and disappeared within a few flashes. Compared to the first one, it is really not addictive.
Sin City is an out-and-out tough guy drama. This toughness is not only reflected in the physical strength of the character, but also through the character’s tolerance, psychological quality, and skills, as well as the style of painting, violent aesthetics, and sexy women. It is just an exaggeration of the concept that reflects the various men's survival skills and life that correspond to those wandering rivers and lakes. Exaggeration is the biggest feature of this film, but it is a pity that it is difficult to surpass without Quentin's first classic.

    A vicious woman, a man without a brain in front of a naked woman, a man who cannot be beaten to death, a man who is difficult to beat to death, a group of people who die at one touch, a man who plays cards to death, all characters without spiritual flesh. All power lost.

    Gambling revenge, confession disaster, scar face woman evil. Although all aspects are much worse than the first episode, this roughness is still very appetizing. Eva Green didn't seem to be pleasing to the eye in the "300" sequel
