Jan 14th

Sin City
Some say that the last ever film noir made was the legendary and iconic Blade Runner. Well, if that's the case, then this is the film that brought noir kicking and screaming back into the 21st century.
The entire film is brilliantly lifted from Frank Miller's groundbreaking comic series of the same name, almost panel for panel, bringing his blunt, brutal graphic images to the screen.
The all-star cast is spot on; Mickey Rourke especially.
Great film, probably knocking Blade off the top of my greatest comic to film adaptation.
