    i was disapointed, for some reason.

    maybe lack of familiarity with frank miller's work, but i felt the non chronological timeline was so sporatic that it diddn't work.

    very styalistic though, good boobs and blood. mickey rourke stole the show.

    edit: i also thought she was going to be in more scenes:

    Maybe it was just me, but I felt like everyone in the movie theater was waiting for Jessica Alba to get naked. Big let down in that department.

    I agree that Mickey Rourke did a great job. His finest performance since Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man.

    Every review I read (even well before the movie opened) highlighted that Jessica Alba DOES NOT get naked and her reasons why (basically that her father would have a heart attack). So everyone could have easily known that in advance.

    If Jessica Alba doesn't get naked, I'm not going.

    Who does get naked?
    It's idomatic, beatch.

    pretty much everyone else.

    womens wise.

    goldie=nakid



    gail=nailkid



    britney= not neitneked ()


    so we are hitting .500 for nakedness. to be truthfull, lots of the nakedness is more like partial nakedness.

    Rosario Dawson (but then she got nekkid in alexander too). some other girls. nudity is only hinted at, which makes it much better IMHO. there's a great scene snapshot with Rourke staring at Carla Gugino's behind...

    on the other hand guys don't get so much nekkid in the movie, since they have a tendency to expose the insides of their bodies more.

    great movie. could've had only rourke's story in it, didn't care much for the other two.

    Saw it last night- one of the most visually stunning movies I've seen in a long time. But if ultraviolence is not your thing- don't see it. But I still though it was excellent- probably Rodriguez's best film yet.

    I thought this movie was pretty cool, but I need an explanation of something.

    What was the deal with Josh HArtnett's character? Who was the chick he killed in the first scene? What was the point of that?
    Looking California, feeling Minnesota.

    continuation setup for the sequel

    no, in reality i think it's just a little trick to put the three stories in the much bigger perspective of the whole "sin" city, i.e. they are irrelevant in the big picture of things in much the same way that superman or batman aren't...

    i've given myself some time before i see it again, but i'm sure a second viewing will clear up things much more.
