"Sin City: A Dame to Kill for" is everything the moviegoer with taste, dreamed for, and far more. I appreciated the perfect visuals of the first movie, however it was too ... dark. I don't like to watch movies, just to be told, that the world is a dark place, where you will be born, and eventually die.
This time, though equally dark, and stylish, I really felt, the movie had something to say, that could move me. The movie's message is more: "The world is dark a place, where you will be born, and die, and if you struggle, keep struggling, maybe you will leave the world less dark, than it was before.
So obviously, like part 1, (it feels like a part 2), it is not a feel-good-movie, some critics wrote about the first part, it is like a kick in the balls. The same is true for "A Dame to Kill for", maybe even more. However it is drop-dead-cool, and you will get something back in reward. It is no fun, no entertainment, no celebration of special-effects, it is like a hit in the face, it tells you that good people won't always have a happy ending, but that shouldn't keep you from being it.
