kybearfuzzAfter work today, I took a two hour quick nap (two hours is short for me). My buddy Eric called to see if I was heading to see the midnight showing of Sin City. So off to the Levee I go to catch the 10:15 show. Eric and Aaron showed up with Robbie and Patryk. The theater was packed, but they showed the movie in two different theaters at the same time to accomodate everyone.
Alexis Bledel as Becky in Sin City
Sin City was very impressive, a film with three separate, but interweaving storylines. The main male leads are gritty, flawed anti-heroes, with pensive voiceover dialogue right out of a Dashiell Hammett novel. Virtually every female in this movie is gorgeous, seductive, and deadly, not to mention either nude or scantly-clad. I think what impressed me the most was the color, or rather the lack of it. The movie is primarily black and white with only one or two vivid accent colors (like Becky's brilliant blue eyes in the pic above). There was also an amazing amount of gore in this movie, but in the black and white coloring, it was less disturbing.
Actually what impressed me more was the audience. It's been a long time since I've been to the movies where the audience wasn't talking, text messaging, and/or annoying the hell out of me. I think the fact there was very few teenagers in attendance and the movie kept their attention. A good movie experience for a change!
