Review: 'Sin City' a visual pioneer
By Paul Clinton

(CNN) -- "Sin City," adapted from three hardboiled comic books by the
renowned graphic novelist Frank Miller, is without doubt the most
visually stunning live action transfer of the comic book format to the
big screen ever made.

The stark black and white images -- with beautifully calculated
splashes of vivid color -- are shockingly faithful to Miller's lurid,
ultra-violent, crime-riddled world. It's an alternative universe where
almost everyone is a perpetrator, a victim or a witness.

Co-directed by Miller and Robert Rodriguez -- with a special guest
director stint by Quentin Tarantino -- the film was shot entirely
against green screens using the latest in high-definition cameras.
Rodriguez and Miller have lifted the comic-book panels from page to
screen. The result is an eye-popping visceral feast.

The combination of these non-Hollywood mavericks also attracted a wide
range of acting talent eager to populate this world of gun molls,
prostitutes, crooked cops, serial killers and guns-for-hire. It's
Mickey Spillane on steroids.
