For Jen 🤞🤞
Got my fingers and toes crossed for you Jen 🤞💙
Thanks for all the hard work you and your team do for us
Next WATCHMEN OR ARMY OF THE DEAD OR DAWN OF THE DEAD. All are great SNYDER films.
@Jen Murray if you like graphic novel adaptations, then you should add "Watchmen" to your list (from 2009).
"Most people think , Marv is crazy. He just had the rotten luck of being born in the wrong century." Is prolly the best way of describing any character.
"I'll cash her cheque in the morning."
Cold!
R.I.P. Brittney Murphy and Michael Clark Duncan.
Such a phenomenal movie
Don't forget Rutger Hauer aka Cardinal Rourke.
@@misterprickly oh yeah... 😢 Thanks! I wonder if Jen would enjoy Lady Hawke?!
@@unclelinkLadyhawke is an amazing film.
It's too bad that they had to stick with the placeholder casio keyboard music.
I heard that they didn't have the budget for a orchestral soundtrack but that could have just been a rumor.
@@misterprickly that's something I didn't know. Cool!
RIP Powers Booth as well.
One of best comic book movie adaptations ever. It really captures that feeling of a comic book story and the cinematography was absolutely stunning, it still blows my mind how violent this movie was.
what are a few other comic book adaptations that you would recommend 🙂 and would you count Watchmen among them 🤔
@@cjwright79 V for Vendetta is a favorite of mine.
Avoid Sin City - A Dame to Kill For. It’s nowhere near as good.
@@TylerMRedman76 There was always going to be one big problem with a sequel; they had already done the best stories from the comic.
As big a fan as I am of Eva Green, a two hour film based around her tits was a huge disappointment
Tarantino said Mickey Rourke was born to play this part.
Miller was skeptical until they met, but by the end of the meeting he had scribbled in his notes "Mickey Rourke IS Marv"
@@chrisleebowers he was my favorite character.. But the Jessica Alba in those chaps.
"This is so Kill Bill" - Director Robert Rodriguez is good friends with Quentin Tarantino and the swords used by Miho in Sin City are literally the same prop swords used in Kill Bill.
Quentin also direct and act in this movie.
The cop who pull Clive Owen over was him. He directed that scene too.
@@jasontodd6779 That wasn't Tarantino. He guest directed that scene, but the cop was played by Jeff Dashnaw.
"An old man dies, a little girl lives. Fair trade."
Amen.
Best line ever.
Damn line chokes me up every time.
Trivia: The assassin story at the beginning was originally proof of concept test footage that Robert Rodriguez shot to show what the style of the movie would be. When he showed the footage to Bruce Willis, He asked “are those the lines from the book?” Rodriguez said yes, and Willis said “I’m in”
I always thought it was nice that Josh Hartnett(who Rodriguez cast in one Hartnett’s first film roles; The Faculty) did that scene, as a favor, not knowing if anything would come of it and then did the end scene when they made the movie 🙂
The director had no script and no story boards, he just used the comic book and put it on film. And tarentino directed the scene where Dwight gets pulled over with Jackie in the front seat.
"Just like in 300." - exactly. Both "Sin City" and "300" were movies based on graphic novels written and drawn by Frank Miller. In the Sin City story "The Big Fat Kill", Miller writes "Sometimes you can beat the odds with a careful choice of where to fight." And then a few years later he wrote and drew the "300" graphic novel.
this is one of the key points that I took away from Machiavelli - choose the battleground wisely!
...in fact, here's the first page of the final chapter of "The Big Fat Kill", explicitly mentioning King Leonidas and the 300 Spartans: ruclips.net/video/cNNo486VszE/видео.htmlsi=I_zBhvRPIGtQUiE2&t=3200
My wife and I have been waiting for this one! We ordered pizza, got our Canadian kush and munchies, it's the perfect date night to watch a Jen reaction!
Surely you don't prefer that stuff to Sake
@@GrosvnerMcaffrey I'm pairing my Sake with Shogun. Kanpai!
I’m glad this the theatrical cut.. ❤
Also.. the priest in the confessional.. is Frank Miller
Now that you've seen this one though, I'd recommend the directors cut. It separates the film into the three original books, and adds more scenes.
But it's an awful way to watch the movie the first time. The structure of the theatrical version is fantastic.
@@alexspindler1 I like to watch the theatrical version with the audio track featuring a live audience reaction. Great way to view it.
It's good you watched the theatrical cut first. There's an extended UNCUT version as well, but it seperates all the stories into little mini-movies with credits at the end of each. There are some extra scenes that are interesting, but the way the theatrical version is edited makes it more worthwhile to watch.
100% agree. Theatrical version is much better.
Most shots are taken directly from the graphic novel. It's a beautiful adaptation. Highly Recommended.
Mickey Rourke, Clive Owen, Bruce Willis, Jessica Alba, Rosario Dawson, Benicio Del Toro, Michael Clarke Duncan, Rutger Hauer, Brittany Murphy, Josh Hartnett, Michael Madsen, and Elijah Wood.
Frank Miller as the priest.
Some sorta famous actors from TV, but they are hard to recognize
Nick Offerman (parks and rec) and Rick Gomez (Band of Brothers)
Jamie Kennedy (My Name is Earl)
Nick Stahl (Carnivsle, Terminator 3)
Tommy Flanagan (Sons of Anarchy)
Powers Booth (Deadwood)
Frank Miller is a dark genius. His stint on the Daredevil comic and the Batman comic was amazing. He comes from a dark place. Great reaction, as usual.
I would strongly approve of Jen reacting to the animated adaptation of Frank Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns" Parts 1&2.
Just don't bring up All Star Batman & Robin.
Frank Miller has a Cameo in the '03 "Daredevil" Movie: He's stabbed in the head by Bullseye, who then steals a motorcycle!
@@tomhoffman4330 He's the priest in this movie also, the one Marv kills.
@@jayhawks4life354 I had forgotten that Frank was even in this until today, but I did recognize him.
Jen when you said, “It’s pretty dire circumstances. Might as well go for it.”. You really are the best. Lol ❤
you see this a lot in film & literature, when people may not live to see the next sunrise, they tend to let their hair down, have a little more fun 🌲🧊🐪
The opening scene with Josh Hartnett was Robert Rodriguez's resume to show Frank Miller he could do justice to Frank's Graphic novel. He loved it. A lot of film directors and producers wanted to adapt Frank's work to the big screen. He didn't let anyone do it because he felt certain that no one would/could do it right. Many of the shots are pretty much straight off the pages of the Graphic novel. It's my understanding that Robert invited Frank to Austin to show him that opening scene, the rest is history.
Tarantino directed the scene in the car where Clive Owen is talking to the dead guy played by Benicio del Toro.
"Dick Tracy" (1990) is also a movie that you should watch. Based on the 1930s newspaper comic character from artist Chester Gould, this live action movie has a great cast. The best part is the visuals and you trying to guess which famous actor is playing which character. In the history of comics and comic books, there are only three heroes that have a definitive memorable rogues gallery: Batman, Spider-Man, and Dick Tracy. Chester Gould wrote and drew the Dick Tracy strip for 46 years, then he officially retired. Check it out.
Meanwhile The Spirit (2008) is based on the comic strip of the same name by Will Eisner. Frank Miller was heavily influenced by Eisner...so he wrote and directed the movie (mostly based on the influence the success of Sin City and 300 gave him). The Spirit is...not good. But it is interesting.
Most of the cast were fan's of the comic strip too and had a blast on the shoot.
Loved that movie as a kid in the 90s
Meh, Dick Tracy has not aged well.
"I'll cash her check in the morning." Coldest line in movies.
Pure art in cinema - seeing this, in the theaters, back in the day, was mindblowing.
And unlike some other artsy films, this one managed to be captivating and engrossing!
This was a series of graphic novels.
1. The original was called only Sin City. It's the story of Marv.
2. The second was A Dame to Kill For, not used for this movie but adapted into a sequel.
3. The third was That Yellow Bastard, which is Hartigan's story that they split into the bookends for this movie.
4. The Big Fat Kill came after all of these and is a sequel to A Dame to Kill For. It's why they refer to Dwight's old face and shady past: that is the earlier story.
BFK was 3 and TYB was 4, but otherwise accurate
This is one of the best movie adaptations of a comic book/graphic novel ever. It did a fantastic job of capturing everything that makes the Sin City comics so iconic. And yes, if you haven't read them you definitely should.
This movie is incredible. Definitely in my top 5 comic book movies of all time. The scene with Marv, Kevin, and the dog made everybody gasp in the theater I was in.
This was the movie that really turned me on to Rosario Awesome, as I call her. She was Gail, who had a thing for Dwight. Rosario went on to Rent, Clerks II (forget III), and Unstoppable, plus she played the title role in Ahsoka. Marvelous style to this, but for me there was too much -- what's a word for it? Yeesh! That's the word. Thanks, Jen.
My Rosario crush began with "Men in Black II" and "The Rundown!"👍
Rosario was in Alexander the Great, too.
The adaptation from the graphic novel to film was captured almost perfectly in this movie. Working as a bookkeeper for a chain of comic book stores in 2005 we went as a group to see this opening night. 5 store managers, the owner and myself then sat in a late night pie shop discussing this movie for over 6 hours. Remarkable memorable film making. Love when people realize that creepy cannibal guy is Frodo from LotR.
-The swatches of color were mostly arbitrary, the choices are taken from the comic and it's just basically what Miller wanted you to look at or focus on, or something specific to a character (The Yellow Bastard, Goldie's hair)
-Frank Miller has a cameo, he's the priest Marv shoots in the confessional
-The sequel "A Dame To Kill For" is not quite as good, but it's still cool and gives you Dwight's backstory
They didn't really plan on making Becky's eyes color originally, but Alexis Bledel has pretty intense blue eyes in real life, so they decided to highlight that.
@@KthulhuXxx The blue eyes was also an easter egg for a Sin City storyline that had a femme fatale with blue eyes.
So it wasn’t arbitrary …
@@RootinrPootine Yes, that's what "mostly" means
@@chrisleebowers none of it was arbitrary
It's funny you mention '300' because Frank Miller wrote '300' and all the 'Sin City' stories. The padre Marv killed was played by Frank Miller, FYI. And, yes, the graphic novels are worth reading.
You shine reacting to this type of genre Jen. The films that put you on edge, show you as the genuine reactor you are. We're only into March, and this year on your channel has been awesome! Looking forward to summer and then the holidays reactions 😊...Eric
"Watchmen" is also based on a graphic nobel from Alan Moore (V from Vendetta)
"Watchmen" the movie was pretty great, up until we meet Veidt and find he's an arrogant, self-absorbed pr--k, so far from his original persona. Not sure why they did this when they got so much other stuff right. Really weird, and annoying. Plus, the ending is dumb, compared to the graphic novel.
When I saw "Watchmen" in a movie theater, there was ONE big reaction from the crowd throughout the entire movie, and that's it. Can you guess which scene that was? I'll make it easy for you and just tell you... The airship, in the clouds. The flame thrower. Lotta laughs. :)
So, a big ole swing-and-a-miss on the whole, sadly. "Sin City" the movie is by far the better adaptation.
I think there are few fictional characters more honorable than Hartigan. Everything he goes through for Nancy, everything he sacrifices. On top of that he doesn’t take advantage of Nancy when I can’t think of many guys who would say no to Jessica Alba. He must have a heart condition because his heart is just way too big.
7:50 This is Frank Miller the writer and artist for the graphic novel.
Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino have been best friends forever and work together a lot. Sometimes one will have the other play in his film, it's fun trying to find them in the movie and both of them use a lot of the same actors more than once, Sergio Leone (The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly) did that a lot as well. Anyway, loved the review, love you, take care and stay safe ❤️
There are 7 Sin City graphic novels and yes, you should check them out! =) They even used the comic panels as the movie's storyboard ;)
The one with Marv is from the 1st comic The Hard Goodbye, the one with Dwight is from the 3rd comic The Big Fat Kill, the one with Hartigan is from the 4th comic That Yellow Bastard and the one with Josh Hartnett is from The Customer Is Always Right, a short story in the 6th comic Booze, Broads and Bullets.
Tarantino directed the driving scene with Clive Owen and Benicio Del Toro.
If you like this style of movie, The Spirit 2008 is very similar in its styling.
I appreciate the fun reactions.
Be well
This was a great edit! Hopefully it stays up 🤞
Some trivia: Robert Rodriguez scored Kill Bill: Vol. 2 for one dollar. Quentin Tarantino said he would repay him by directing a segment of this movie for one dollar. Tarantino, a vocal proponent of film-over-digital, has said that he was curious to get hands-on experience with the high definition cameras which Rodriguez lauds. When asked about his experience Tarantino merely replied: "Mission Accomplished."
The thing that makes this movie special is that they cut up the actual comic to make the storyboards. It is literally the same as the comic shot for shot.
The woman at the beginning of the movie paid Josh Hartnett's assassin character to kill her. That's why he said that he'd "never know what she was running from."
That doesn’t make any sense
@@RootinrPootine That's the story. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life on the run, so she paid the guy to kill her.
@@RootinrPootine Why doesn't it, if someone wants out of this life, but can't do it themselves. Suicide by police is a thing. Why not this? Its also the main plot device in Warren Beaty's Bullworth, and other films.
@@RootinrPootineshe was the wife of a particularly sadistic mob boss whom she had wronged. The mob was planning to kidnap and torture her to death, so in order to avoid that fate she hired the hitman to kill her in a painless way while also making her feel... happy in her last moments.
@@kyraspikes7542love Bullworth.
This was such an awesome movie. Especially, when you're a 24 year-old boy and Miho, Gail, Goldie, adult Nancy, and all the ladies of Old Town make your "weapon" tingle.
Though part 2 is still quite good, it hasn't really re-captured the magic of this one.
24 year old boy tingling? Lol you’re gross
So glad you had an opportunity to view this and give your reaction, so different and unique of a film, I thoroughly enjoyed it and have watched it a few times
You are looking really good today Jen. Hope all is well.
definitely read the graphic novels, most people don't care for the second film but I really liked it.
Called a dame to kill for.
Another Fantastic reaction Jen, even after all the copyright issues you pulled through, nothing will keep you down and see you for Star Trek Sunday 🖖.
Elisha Wood yes it's Frodo.
😎👍 The first film to combine black & white with splashes of color in this manner was "Pleasantville" (1998). However, that film is a whimsical paranormal comedy.
Thank you for the fun reaction! 😊 The sequel is also a fun watch. Miller also tried to direct one in its entirety himself; ´The Spirit´, and that didn´t end up being very good.
👏Congratulations Jen💝I told You that this Movie would be "unlike anything You've ever seen before!"😉I'm so Glad You got this Uploaded, and Thank You as always for today...👍
Thanks for being here Tom! See you Sunday for Trek!
After the success of Sin City and 300, Frank Miller was given the opportunity to direct his passion project; an adaptation of the Will Eisner comic character The Spirit. It bombed, critically & commercially. That said I kinda like it, and would love to see you do a reaction to it; it is absolutely bugf**k nuts bonkers. The What the Frig-itude levels for that would be off the charts
There's nothing like this movie. I can understand that the subject is not for everyone, but the genius of the entire project makes it of vast importance to the history of films. Anyone that considers themselves a fan of film must do their best to watch this.
I love the two instances of "just like in 300" here because, not only was this written by the same guy who wrote 300 (the comic/graphic novels, I mean -- Frank Miller) but that scene in the crooked alley actually REFERENCES the 300 in the original comic!
"Deadly little Miho" she's my favorite just a surgical savage
I LOVE this move!!! there is a sequel too, hopefully you post a reaction to that also. Great reaction Jen
Enjoyed your reaction to this!! Sin City was filmed in Austin, home of Robert Rodriguez. Filmed on soundstages and green screen special effects.
"There's wrong and there's wrong and then there's this reaction!" The best one so far!😁
Mickey Rourke, as Marv, absolutely steals this movie!
Marv: "That there is one damn fine coat you're wearin'."
I friggin WISH clive owen did more stuff, he is great in shoot em up and he did a short film as a driver for a journalist, mans got dimension in his performances. Also Elijah Wood was a surprise casting, he was delightful to watch as Kevin
You would be amazed at how accurate many of the frames from the movie are to the panels in the comic series.
Almost psychotic attention to detail. There's a video somewhere on RUclips that goes into it meticulously.
I absolutely LOVE this film. It actually captures what novels have been giving us for years. Also anything with Rutger Hauer in it, I wanna see.
Great reaction all the way although I didn't see the Eva Green part.
As we say in Texas; y'all be safe.
Fun fact: The whole movie was shot in a green room. A lot of the production design was CGI. The special edition has the entire (time-lapsed) feature, sans effects.
I would say that that's maybe not such a fun fact for the actors involved, given how little they generally care for green screen, but how else could you even make a movie like this! the cost of building the sets could be prohibitive... although come to think of it, they did make it work in Blade Runner, and that really did feel like a convincing city
I just need to say, to you, a dame who needs to hear it. And I'm the guy who needs to say it. On a dark and stormy night you need to know what only the rain can tell you. The rain, coming down like buckets of blood when all the hounds of hell have been loosed on you. The truth for you, Jen, my Jen. The only dame to give two cents to a crippled old has been in a town that has the stench of a thousand rotten corpses clawing up through the grime and muck, pulling down the walls of the crooked institutions to lay bare the ugliness of a once barely conscious town of wannabees. And you, Jen. The true article. My only friend.
I love the noir extreme of the film.
Felt SO cool when I first watched this. Holds up pretty well imo
Another stylistic movie, I loved, was Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.
Sin City is like the MCU, there is more than just these characters, more than these stories. Frank Miller was hesitant to make this movie until he saw the opening scene which was a test run. He loved it and gave his ok. Franks only audition notes for Micky Rouke were "Micky Rouke *is* Marv." Frank Miller played a cameo as the Priest in the confessional that Marv does in. Frank did the 300 graphic novel too.
Ah. That Monsignor Marv kills near the end, think that's Rutger Hauer, from the OG "Bladerunner" (Roy Beatty, you know "tears in the rain...")
Man, this cast is stacked!
“I’m Shelly’s new boyfriend, and I’m out of my mind.”
That is the hardest, scariest line in the whole film.
Fun fact, the comic the Bruce Willis segment is adaptating? That one was written as an unofficial Dirty Harry sequel (he's basically the same character), since Miller didn't like his last movie.
Good to see you got the edit worked out. 👍
The unusual video images and the complex plot make this one watch worthy. It is unorthodox in appearance and that gives it muscle. A touch of suspense and action go well together. Highly recommended!
Hi Jen hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤
Thanks John you too!
Yes, the graphic novel is good. It's not just one book, though; it's six or seven separate books. I may be misremembering, but I believe the film is made up of stories from the first two or three. Much of the dialogue in the film is taken directly from the books, and is obviously a nod to the style of narration used in classic film noir. Visually, the books are less "glossy" than the film, being printed on fairly cheap paper (at least in the edition I have!), but that only adds to the rough-edged feel of the story.
This is books 1 (The Hard Goodbye), 3 (Big Fat Kill), and 4 (That Yellow Bastard)
I really appreciate your sheer enthusiasm for this season

the ROBOCOP gun
Hey Hey there Jen Murray. Marv is without a doubt my favorite character, and his obsession with coats😂. Check out Sin City 2, a dame to kill for. ❤ Love your reaction, as always.
Beyond the amazingly unique look of this film, the writing is sharp, lean, and mean, a proper tribute to that noir vibe.
I had just turned 18 when then movie came out and I saw it in the theatre
The Priest that Marv kills is Frank Miller, the writer of the graphic novel.
The priest in the confession box was frank miller. Miller wrote 300 as well
Sin City 2: A Dame To Kill For is a sequel/prequel it finishes nancys story and reintroduces dwight and explains the "showed up with that new face of yours" line cause hes played by Josh Brollin and has had multiple face surgeries to change his appearance...some of the other characters have been recast like Michael Clarke Duncans character with the gold eye since he passed away before the movie was shot
The old man dies. A little girl lives. Fair trade."
Love that line.
Frank Miller cameo as the Confessional Priest was a great touch! This is how a HELLBOY movie should be done, very stylish and true to the comic. SKY CAPTAIN AND THE WORLD OF TOMORROW is another Stylish Noir Must See!!!
Awesome reactions from Jen, to this amazing movie.
My favourite part of Sin City is the Hartigan / Bruce Willis storyline, which is a perfect recreation of the Graphic Novel story.
Really, good and unique movie. My favorite sequences in the movie, the very end of the first section of Bruce Willis story. One of the best lines in the movie. The sequence in Marv's prison cell were you see "Goldie" then as Wendy approaches Marv it transitions to B/W so get a sense of how Marv perceives her. The Clive Own section the car scene where he is talking with Benicio del Toro character.
Also whoever did the casting for this movie, excellent job!
I love this movie. It's like a 1950's radio drama brought to cinema.
Dwight first appeared in an earlier comic "A Dame to Kill For". Where he got his new face.
“Goldie she says her name is Goldie”
That's not the guy from "The Green Mile", that's the guy from "The Slammin' Salmon"
One of the most underrated (unknown, really) comedies of all-time.
Great film. Jen, if you'd like to see the stories in a linear manor, check out the extended version. Along with extra footage, all the stories are separated into their own chapters.
"Stylish and sexy!" A succinct critique from Jen.
Elijah Woods' glasses is definitely my favorite effect in this movie.
How they went from a masterpiece like this to A Dame to Kill For, I'll never know
I love Devon Aeoki since Primal Scream "Kowalski" :D
This perfectly captured Frank Miller's comics.
Quentin Tarantino directed the scene with Jackie's corpse in the car on the way to the pits
Good reaction Jen. Purple looks good on you.
Agreed💜is definitely Her color!👌
This movie was originally 3 stories from 3 comics series each with 6 issues. But you only need to read them if you want to read comics, because you already had the comic. The differences to the comic are marginal and they literally made the comic as it was into a movie. Comic frame by comic frame.
The comic artist was the same that did the comic they adapted from into the movie '300'. Though that movie had a few more differences to the comic than Sin City had.
Lover boy at the beginning and the end is a hitman.
Just popping by to add a comment and a like and wish everyone a truly wonderful première 🥂 let's get that subscription and like count up and give Jen a lovely end to the week 🙌
hehe
i love the funny noises you make when the gory neck stuff happens!
hihi xD
saluud!°
Good job on the re-edit. Here's hoping this premiere doesn't involve deja vu. See ya in the chat!
