The vertically falling raindrops and the rapidly rising virtual camera turn the entire dark city into a few blood-red letters of "SinCity", the capital of loneliness, confusion, sin, love and primitive desire, appearing on the big screen.

At the same time as the premiere, there will be 2,000 advance screenings in 2,000 theaters in North America.

The past three movies have given Murphy a certain number of fans, such as Daisy who attended the premiere, such as Luis Gonzalez who walked into a theater on Long Island with his companions, and in addition to Murphy, the actors also have their own supporters, probably far less than Tom Cruise, and even a corner of Katherine Zeta-Jones, but people like Robert Downey Jr., James Franco, Jessica Simpson and Jessica Alba, etc., have more or less their own fans, These people and fans of the manga are also the base audience of 2,000 advance showers.

In Hollywood's Chinese Theatre, 2,200 seats are packed, and because the front row is occupied by guests and media seats, ordinary audiences can only sit in a dozen rows relatively far back, but Bet Stino, a super fan of the "Sin City" comics, has no complaints, because this movie is almost the best restoration of the comics!

The contrast brought by the strong black and white, coupled with the scheduling of the lens and the angle of the light, many shots can be enjoyed separately as an independent picture of the comics, especially the use of black in the film is rich in layers, showing the original face of "Sin City", and even reaching the image texture that cannot be obtained in color films!

Not far away, Daisy was watching with relish, from the moment she entered the main hall of the theater, she found that there were very few women in the general audience, and it seemed that this was not a film for female audiences, but a large number of violent scenes in it made her feel that her whole person was burning.

Since "Terror Planet", Daisy has gradually realized that she has an extraordinary love for extremely violent movie scenes, not only Murphy Stanton's movies, but other films full of extreme violence scenes she also likes, but those directors are not as handsome and cool as Murphy Stanton, and they can't arouse her interest.

Therefore, many scenes in this film easily resonated with her.

Sven's cannibal demon Kevin smiled unchanged, even after his limbs were mutilated, he still had that numb expression, even if he was bitten by a mad dog, he still had that indifferent eyes, vertical rain lines, white blood, and the killing was so common, wanton and low.

This caused Daisy to feel an extraordinary violence.

In the next story, Jack, a police officer, is a villain who breaks the rules of the old town and is chopped off by the female killer Mie, who is stubborn and shoots back, but is teased by Mie and shot in the head by the sleeve of the pistol that explodes in his hand, and is finally killed by Mie's throat.

In the meantime, Jack's severed hand, his forehead inserted into the barrel of the gun, and the severed neck burst out of pure plasma glowing white from time to time, and his death was tragic and comical.

Afterwards, lightning pierced the drizzly black night sky, creating a strong visual contrast between the white plasma and the dark streets, a contrast of near-extreme brightness that heralded the imminent stormy killings and cast a terrifying haze over the old city.

In order to preserve the fragile truce between the police and the prostitutes, and to save the girls of the old city from the war, the chivalrous murderer De Walter drove to the oil well to dump the body.

During the process, Jack's body collapsed in the passenger seat, his mouth haunting DeWalt's doubts and worries, while showing off his severed throat to the rhythm of the car's bumps.

It is a black **** without any details, and the white plasma that emerges from it together deduce a shocking horror image, resurrecting the stubborn soul of the villain policeman Jack in a magical way, and metaphorizing his perverted psychology that seeps into the bone marrow, which is definitely the ultimate interpretation of violent aesthetics.

Harvey Weinstein's brother Bob Weinstein is also sitting in this theater, he has not seen the finished film before, this is the first time he has seen it, but he just wants to describe the effect of the film in one sentence - shocking!

There are a lot of scenes that would be considered extremely irrational in a normal movie, such as white lines of rain, Jack picking up his severed hand, and his long-dead chatter in Dwight's car.

However, this episode is extremely tense!

Accompanied by Dwight's chaotic and confused narration, and the rain on the screen that seems to never stop, from the encounter between Jack and Dwight to the final street showdown, the story is louder and higher, and finally pours out like a torrential rain with the strafing of bullets, and the dramatic climax carries the emptiness and sadness of the characters' hearts under the catharsis of violence!

At that moment, countless young girls strafed high on the rooftop, and the film's sense of unreality and absurdity also reached its peak!

They reminded Bob Weinstein of the casual and bizarre violence in "Kill Bill", and if "Kill Bill" is a moral disillusionment, "Sin City" does exactly that, and should add the distortion and madness of the environment in which people live.

The violent scenes in the film are not more angry, but full of bone-eating cold, and the previous appearance of Jonah Hill and his ending make people feel extremely uncomfortable psychologically, and I am afraid that many female viewers will not be able to survive this plot.

And the farm where he lives appears many times in the movie, and the basement scene is almost a replica of hell, although Murphy Stanton is on point, and even uses artistic means such as silhouettes to avoid the bloodiest scenes, but the uncompromising performance of violence, this film can be said to be another peak after "Kill Bill".

"The violence and very unreal details of **** can really portray the madness of Sin City itself, and the only remaining bright spot in the black sky in the film is the humble and difficult love between several male characters and the people they care about, which is the only thing to look forward to."

Towards the end of the film, Daisy mutters a few words to herself.

The three stories are independent and intertwined, all taking place in a virtual Sin City, where there is no difference between the police and the mobs, violence destroys everything, protects everything, and time mixes and finally returns to square one.

Story 1 is the City of Sin.

Muffle, who has an ugly face and a hot temper, meets the blonde beauty Gottie, and a one-night stand gives Muffle a warmth that he has never had. However, when Muffle wakes up, he discovers that Godie, who is lying next to him, has been murdered, and he faces charges as a murderer.

Ugly face, not favored by beautiful women, only Godie is the best for him, but Godie is unfortunately assassinated, and the woman he loves dies next to his pillow, and then the killer calls the police and traps him in injustice. This strong man endured the misunderstanding of Godie's sister Wendy, which caused him psychological and physical trauma, but he still had no hesitation to avenge the person he loved.

Ignited by the flames of anger and revenge, Muffer's heart investigates the truth with the help of Godie's sister Wendy to find the killer of his lover......

Story 2 is a sniper.

Dwight was a former criminal, and after plastic surgery, he became the boyfriend of Shirley, a bartender, and helped her teach her a lesson to her troubled ex-boyfriend, the violent Jack.

Jack is a cop, as dirty as the city, Dwight follows Jack and his gang to the old city, which is ruled by a gang of prostitutes, where Jack doesn't follow the rules and is killed by the prostitutes before they find out that Jack is a police officer.

His death shattered the agreement between the prostitutes and the police.

Dwight has an old relationship with Gail, the boss of the prostitute gang, and must help them cover up their crimes and protect their rights......

In the old town, the police were allowed to receive their free services at parties, in exchange for the fact that they could run their own premises, and that they could clean up the police but not kill.

Jack's death caused them to fall into a panic, Dwight went all out, and with the help of Meilu, those crazy girls, tried their best to protect themselves, there was no support, they could only rely on themselves, they fought hard to protect their rights and interests, even if it was a bloody killing for this.

The story of three yellow mongrels.

Hardy is about to retire due to a heart attack, and in the last hour of his police career, Hardy receives information that the senator's son, Locke, has kidnapped Nancy, an 11-year-old girl, who is the main suspect in several rape and murder cases.

Hardy single-handedly rescues Nancy, deposes Locke, and is seriously injured himself.

For the next eight years, Locke's senatorial father used his power to lock him up in prison and force him to take the blame for Locke, but Hardy never gave in, and Nancy's letter under the pseudonym Cority was the only solace in her life.

Nancy's letter was abruptly interrupted, much to Hardy's upset, and he had to give up his resistance and plead guilty in exchange for parole, looking to protect Nancy.

Little did he know that the monster yellow mongrel who had been secretly following him would put him and Nancy back in danger......

The ugly muffle kills for the only woman in her life who loves her; Dwight fights to protect his loved ones; Hardy shot himself in the head in order to keep his beloved woman alive.

These practices lack feasibility and credibility in the real world. However, in an unreal society, the act of protecting one's loved ones in an unreal way presents the only bit of humanity in this dark world.

Towards the end of the film, Tom Cruise exhales softly and returns from the film to reality.

"Honey," Penelope Cruise next to him suddenly whispered, "It's been a long time since I've seen you watch a movie so seriously." ”

Tom Cruise shook his head and smiled, this film is really unique!

How to describe this movie? A visual feast of solid colors or a splendid appreciation of violence? (To be continued.) )
