The Plot…
Four interconnected tales from Sin City…
The Customer is Always Right… A hitman that marks don’t see coming until it is too late. (Bookends the movie.)
That Yellow Bastard… For Detective John Hartigan (Willis) it’s his last day on the job. He’s thinking about the thick steak his wife has waiting for him at the end of his shift. But first, Hartigan is going to have a run-in with a serial killer who preys on children. Hartigan learns that the sick bastard is the son of a Senator, and is now prepping his next victim. Hartigan knows this can only end one way. He’ll save the child or die trying.
The Hard Goodbye… Marv (Rourke) is a ex-con hardcase. Last night he had a one night stand with a goddess named Goldie. She was beautiful beyond belief. Marv wonders why she picked a big scary mug like him when she could have any man she wanted. He’ll have to work it out later. He just woke up. Goldie is in bed beside him. Dead. Someone snuck in and murdered her while they were sleeping. And now Marv hears cops coming up the stairs. Someone set him up. Someone killed Goldie. Marv knows once he finds the killer the hell he sends the murderer to will seem like heaven after what Marv does to him. But first the cops outside his door…
The Big Fat Kill… When Shellie’s ex-boyfriend, Jackie Boy (Del Toro) shows up unexpectedly with his crew, he’s surprised to find Shellie’s new boyfriend, Dwight (Owen) there. The events that follow will lead to a potential turf war… unless Dwight and some of his friends from Old Town can set things right.
Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…
Sin City, the movie, is what Robert Rodriguez called a “translation” of three of Frank Miller’s Sin City graphic novels – The Hard Goodbye; The Big Fat Kill, That Yellow Bastard and Miller’s Sin City short, The Customer is Always Right. They are some of my all time favorite comics and the movie is a beautiful “translation”.
Quentin Tarantino is listed as a guest director. Tarantino directed the scene between Dwight and Jackie Boy before the cop pulls the car over.
Rodriguez filmed the opening “intro” before Miller agreed to the Sin City “translation”. Rodriguez wanted to prove that Miller’s Sin City tales could work as a movie that complemented the comics. The comic panels from each tale were used as storyboards.
Robert Rodriguez working with Frank Miller to bring Sin City to the big screen was a dream project for me. Magnificent casting was the icing on the cake. If you like the comics, you should enjoy the movie.
Sin City (2005) rates 5 of 5 stars.
