Her handler, Harley Pasternak, is trying to kill Kanye too. He's killed a few stars, and she was not the first. Now, squeal about conspiracy theories while I laugh at you for having a two digit IQ.
Someone may have already commented this but Josh Hartnett’s character, The Salesman was hired by the lady he killed in the beginning. It was a way for her to end herself without doing it herself.
Its thought that she hired him. She had something from her past she couldn't outrun, she wanted out of life but couldn't do it herself. She wanted someone to save her, and got it in the end.
And apparently just because Rodriguez wanted to thumb his nose at the directors guild for saying that he couldn’t have a co-director with Frank Miller. “Oh, I can’t have a co-director? Okay, how about this: We’re also gonna have guest director too!”
Yes. Tarantino insisted on having a car for them to film in, with practical rain. There’s no CGI scenery in his scene, and the way colours are handled is noticeably different from the rest of the film:
I love using this movie to test any new TV I get. Putting it on vivid to really test that contrast this movie is perfect for. Hope we eventually get a 4k release of this one.
I have all the marvel and X-men trading cards from 1990 - 1995. Not really worth more than $20 a set, but they give me the warm and fuzzies from when I collected them as a kid, and they're priceless to me.
I like both versions. They each have their own take. The Extended version is definitely that. An extended version with some additional scenes that make the film great!
In the DVD commentary, Frank Miller indicated that he was initially motivated to write That Yellow B*****d after his disappointment with The Dead Pool, the fifth and final film in the Dirty Harry series. Nancy - who prior to this story had no last name - was named "Callahan", a name shared with Clint Eastwood's character, Harry Callahan.
Hey, Mr. and Mrs.! This is the most faithfully recreated comic book adaptation EVER made. Frank Miller was a full participant and he played the role of the priest Marv shoots. Robert Rodriguez shot the whole thing out of his home studio in Austin. Frank Miller's storyboards guided Rodriguez' direction so he credited Miller as a co-director and was penalized for the transgression by having his DGA status suspended. Quentin Tarantino directed the bit between Benicio del Toro and Clive Owen driving to the tar pits. It was a quid pro quo arrangement between them on their respective films. The first scene between Marley Shelton and Josh Hartnett was filmed as proof of concept and used by Rodriguez to convince the actors to come aboard the project. Shelton hires the hitman to kill her because she's in a bind she can't see a way out of and wants a quick, clean death rather than to suffer at her enemy's hands. She has no idea what he looks like or when it'll happen but realizes her time has come as soon as he makes contact and she swoons into his embrace like a lover. It's fatalistically romantic. The graphic novels are classic hard-boiled neo-noir illustrated completely in black and white with color accents. Their titles are: The Hard Goodbye (Marv's story) The Big Fat Kill (Dwight and Gail's story) That Yellow Bastard (Hartigan's story) The Customer is Always Right (the hitman's story) The Director's Cut reorders the story sequence and adds a bunch of extra footage that was deleted from the theatrical cut all of which is sourced directly from the page. The Director's Cut is worth a rewatch as an alternate edit. There is a sequel which came out 9 years later. The long interval killed interest for the general public but it is a WORTHY follow-up that tells the BEST of the Sin City stories called "A Dame to Kill For". Two of the stories in the second anthology were written specifically for the screen by Frank Miller! Sin City 2 is made up of: A Dame to Kill For (Dwight's prequel story and the reason why he gets a new face) Just Another Saturday Night (a Marv story) The Long Bad Night (Johnny's story, a Miller original) Nancy's Last Dance (Nancy's sequel story featuring Marv, a Miller original) Mickey Rourke, Bruce Willis, Rosario Dawson, Jessica Alba, Powers Boothe, Jude Ciccolella and Jaime King all reprise their roles. Josh Brolin replaces Clive Owen as Dwight. Dennis Haysbert replaces the late Michael Clarke Duncan as Manute. Jamie Chung replaces Devon Aoki as Miho. Jeremy Piven replaces Michael Madsen as Bob. Brittany Murphy's Shellie was not recast after her passing because she is the NEXUS of the Sin City-verse. It's part of the fun to place the stories properly in the Sin City Timeline because they're not told in chronological order. Frank Miller is a luminary in the comic world known for Sin City, Hard-Boiled, 300, Ronin, Martha Washington, The Dark Knight Returns, Batman: Year One, The Wolverine, Elektra: Assassin and a seminal run on Daredevil. Frank Miller's cinematic adaptations are "Sin City", "A Dame to Kill For", "300", "Batman Begins", the animated "The Dark Knight Returns", "The Wolverine" and Netflix's "Daredevil". Robert Rodriguez is known for "From Dusk Till Dawn", "The Mariachi Trilogy", "The Spy Kids Trilogy", "Machete", "The Faculty", "Hypnotic", "Alita Battle Angel" and producing "Predators".
Noir comic thriller brought to blood soaked life with splashes of colour , and an all star cast , i enjoyed the anthology style of it . Bruce Willis as Hartigan was one of my favorites Rosario Dawson , Clive Owen Benicio Del Toro and Brittany Murphy all portray vivid characters . AND who can forget Mickey Roarke as Marv . the built like a brick S*** house Fighter . 👊
The studio did not like concept for this films visual style. So Robert Rodriguez did just the opening scene with the assassin to show the studio heads as a test screening and based on that they green lit the whole film
U can feel how u want about the rest of the movie. but I swear I have nvr met anyone that didnt at least enjoy Marv’s story. It’s just too damn good and Mickey rourke was perfect.
41:26 Damn do I love this Scene! Powers Booth is so Intimidating and unhinged. He owned this roll, and he even makes a comeback in another roll. One Being in Marvel’s Avengers film. And then he reprised that same roll in Agents of Shield season 3 to season 4! Just over all a great Actor. A shame he’s gone 😢
I love this movie and wish they would make a Batman movie like this! *EDIT* just FYI... Clive Owen was offered Bond but he turned it down because it would have meant being locked into a multipicture contract, with no wiggle room. He doesn't care for sequels either. *wink-wink*
Also, The Spirit follows the same film style and arguably could be in the same cinematic universe. I think you guys would dig it, it's got Samuel L. Jackson and Scarlett Johannsen in it.
10000 likes finally. I've been waiting for so long that I've been saying to watch this series since you guys started watching the Hellboy series. Definitely glad you're taking this journey!
The first lady hired the hitman herself. It's in the dialog. ("I'll cash her check in the morning.") She wanted to commit suicide (not sure if it's explained why) but couldn't bring herself to do it herself.
39:25 'The Big Fat Kill' was the name of this story in the comics. The two other stories are the original shorts with Marv from 'DHP' 'Dark Horse Presents' and 'That Yellow Bastard.' There are other stories but they obviously picked the three most popular for the movie.
Cult director Robert Rodriguez (“From Dusk Till Dawn”, "Once Upon a Time in Mexico") adapted Frank Miller's comics and filmed three stories from a city that lies in the heart of darkness. The gloomy bars and rainy streets are home to a star cast that would be enough for several films: Josh Hartnett, Benicio Del Toro, Brittany Murphy, Elijah Wood, Rutger Hauer, Rosario Dawson ... A superb, brutal neo-noir thriller with fantastic action scenes. Love it.
Admitting vs denying gets you out of jail? Yes. If you maintain your innocence after being convicted you will never get parole. If you are not willing to confess then you have not been "rehabilitated" and thus not eligible for parole. Also, your confession proves that the judge and/or jury made the correct decision. This also indemnifies the state should evidence to exonerate you be found later. Remember, innocence is not grounds to overturn a conviction.
@@cesaru3619 I'm not sure what you mean. You have no "right" to parole. And there is often no legal criteria by which a parole board is bound when making their decisions.
The dialog is styled after the old "Mickey Spillane" type novels. Spillane was considered the "King of Pulp Fiction" and created characters like "Mike Hammer".
@@OneArmedRetroGamer *Of course, there is such a film named "The Spirit" (USA 2008)[ Screenplay by Frank Miller, (Comic : Will Eisner)] directed by Frank Miller, starring Gabriel Macht, Sam L. Jackson, Eva Mendes, Scarlett Johansson,....] .........* ⬅🎬📀🎭🔥😈🔥
Many people mistakenly believe that Tarantino was working on a story about Dwight, because there is a lot of carnage, shurikens, and a katana just like in "Kill Bill". But in fact, Tarantino shot a single episode from this story - the one where Dwight hallucinates in the car talking to a dead Jackie Boy.
@You, Me, & the Movies: Wow! As soon as I saw the thumbnail I HAD to click on it to watch your reaction. Reaction to BRILLIANT movie 'Frank Miller's SIN CITY.' Notice in the credits it only said, "Based on the SIN CITY Graphic Novels by Frank Miller," NOT "Screenplay by ( name. )" That's because brilliant director Robert Rodriguez had said that he considered this to be a translation NOT an adaptation. The opening ( pre- beginning credits ) sequence - with "The Salesman" ( the hitman, played by Josh Hartnett, ) and "The Customer" ( Marley Shelton ) meeting on the rooftop balcony was actually filmed FIRST - as a proof-of-concept to get Frank Miller to allow Rodriguez to make 'SIN CITY.' That and he invited him to co- direct ( both that sequence, and then the movie. ) Not sure if you noticed or not - it's a subtle thing - "The Salesman" says, "I'll cash her check in the morning," meaning SHE PAID him to kill her. Or, as Marley Shelton explained in an extra feature on the DVD release, her character was trapped in a loveless marriage to a mob boss. She had cheated on him. He found out. Knowing that he would torture her first and then kill her, she opted to hire "The Salesman" to make her death quick and easy. That was co- director, and source material writer-illustrator, Frank Miller as the priest in the confessional that "Marv" kills in the "The Hard Goodbye" story ( "Marv's" main story. ) No, Quentin Tarentino - who is a good friend of Robert Rodriguez - did NOT direct the sword-action sequences with "Miho" ( Devon Aoki. ) He directed the sequence where "Dwight" ( Clive Owen) has an imagined conversation with the dead "Jackie Boy" ( Benicio del Toro ) as "Dwight" is driving to The Pits to get rid of the dead bodies of "Jackie Boy" and his cohorts.
Well looking at the film now again its superass boring. Loved it back when it came out. But looking at it now its super slow, lame and uninteresting. And the story incoherent and stoopid. It just looks cool
I think Mrs. Movies just has a generally deadpan demeanor. I've seen her many times profess to greatly enjoy things that her face has little reaction to. And there's nothing wrong with that (and as someone on the Spectrum I wonder if she is too)
I forgot what a great movie this was. Saw it in the theater when it first came out. Marve was such a great character among a cast of them. Rosario Dawson is one of the sexiest, most beautiful woman alive.
A couple of things: the car scene with Del Toro and Owen was the scene directed by Tarantino. Also Josh Harnett was called by RR to his studio home to ask if he'd do a test scene and Frank Miller was going to be there. Miller had been so underwhelmed and had yet to be convinced by previous attempts to adapt his work. He agreed and RR told he had scene with a couple of Actors he knew, Harnett and Marley Shelton, to do a green screen scene and add visuals. Miller was so impressed the actors, the vision, he agreed to let RR adapt the three stories. That's why Harnett isn't really in it as he joined in the testing phase. Later RR would ask him to come back and film another scene, the elevator one at the end. It's ironic you made the comment" they made Rourke look worse". In late 80s/very early 90s Rourke was considered a handsome heartthrob in Hollywood. It's only because he decided to take up professional boxing over acting(of which I'm sure he didn't lose any of the 10 fights he had), to which he started requiring surgery to injuries he was suffering, and sadly it something he continued to have alterations to his appearance long after he quit boxing and got back into acting. He also credited Stallone for getting him his acting career back by casting him in Drive in the early 2000s and thats why he did expendables as a favour to Sly. So maybe, without giving him they help, he may not of played Marv, and no one could've played the role better.
Admitting guilt is actually required to get paroled. If you never admit you did it, even though you were convicted, it shows you have no remorse, so you'd do the same thing again if you were released. If you admit guilt and show remorse, then you are eligible for parole, though not guaranteed. Still, he'd be listed as a sex offender, on the registry, he'd be watched closely and have all kinds of mandatory therapy sessions and check ins with parole officers, maybe for the rest of his life. It was the Senator who got him out, though.
Saw this with my buddies in cinema when it came out. Up to this day, 19 years later, this is still sitting at the very bottom of our (very subjective!), currently 154 entries long "ranking of movies we've seen in cinema" board. This just didnt click with any of us at all (or the crowd who was watching that day for that matter) and i still can hear one of my friends going "I've never seen THAT level of overblown nonsense in my life..." when exiting the cinema :D Good times...
"You won't even take the compliment." "Oh, you're talking about me!" LOL You have the same relationship my wife and I have had for the past 40 years. 😊
Good call, but wow, you just done gone and opened up an old blocked-away wound, lol. Back in the day, way back, when Clive Owen arrived on the scene with his break-out role in 1998's Croupier, the word was 'England' has found it's new Bond. Seriously, look up picks of him from back then, he looks like David Niven (the original person Fleming wanted) meets a young Sean Connery.
I died at the "You would fit in there" comment! XD ;P The closest Clive Owen got to play a James Bond role was in a cameo on the crappy Pink Panther remake. But I agree, Clive would have been a great James Bond. Actually, the Tarantino scene is the car scene with Dwight talking to dead Jackie Boy. There's some minor change, but it was pretty faithful, like 90%, to the graphic novels, they pretty much used them as storyboards. And yes, I've read and own all seven Sin City graphic novels.
For me I like Dwight's story the best as the dialogue is pretty good especially with Jackie Boy, Marv's has the best action for sure, as sad as it is for me to admit I don't like Haragin's story all that much mainly because I'm not the biggest Nior Detective fan. Casting for this film is great thought.
44:20 When you go in front of a Parol Board, if you don't show remorse and repentance, you are not getting paroled... you have to deny your guilt you are not showing remorse and repentance of your crimes.
FUN FACT: Despite the fight scenes between Marv and Kevin, Mickey Rourke and Elijah Wood never actually met. (Not during production anyway.) ANOTHER FUN FACT: There were no sets or locations. The entire movie was shot in a green room.
Shoot Em Up, loved that movie, and wow, does it know how to get a guy/male/boy to eat his veggies, well, carrots at least, laughs there's a similar "that one scene", in another good movie too (no Clive though, nic cage instead): Drive Angry (2011) but, my my favorite movie with Clive, is King Arthur (2004), best arthurian movie, as it's about the historical arthur and his knights, it's done really well too, sighs, wish more people would see it and react to it
Please don't watch the sequel. She hates the style so much she'll dislike it, too. I like her, but hearing her hate on a movie for an hour is disapointing.
She didn't hate on this movie at all... What are you talking about. She mentioned on criticism about the dialogue and then it clicked for her when I told her it was comic book bubbles. That made sense to her. And she liked Sin City 2 even more. That will be out next Friday. Just because someone isn't over-reacting and being jazzed up, doesn't mean they don't like something. She just has a dry sense of humor and says things sarcastically. No idea where you got the notion she hated this tho.
This is Frank Miller he did Dark Knight and all the great Daredevil Comics. He is legendary. However he is kind of to influential and we forgot some of the fun things about DC. He is a genius in my opinion. 😊
I like Frank, but not all of his work is…rational. “Holy Terror!” Is considered by many to be his worst graphic novel and preaches more like a revolt against the Changing landscape after 9-11. Not helped by what he did to The Dark Knight 2 comics!
Mickey Rourke steals the whole movie with his brilliant performance as Marv.
@@travisgray8376 his wife is the most negative person on any channel by far not even sure she likes water or food lol
the biggest crime in this is not showing Jessica Alba dancing
Came to the comment section to say the same thing.
That's the best bit in what is already an awesome film.
This is one time where I'm glad I read the comments before I watched the reaction. Now I'm having second thoughts.
Jessica Alba NEVER looked better than she did in this movie.
@riffgroove oh I don't know she was looking fine in dark angel.
The priest that Marv shot in the confession booth was Frank Miller, the artist/writer of Sin City
You never figured out the prologue? The woman hired the assassin herself. It was a form of assisted suicide. That's why he had her check to cash.
No one ever seems to catch that line. It's a bit frustrating because it's what snapped in my focus when i watched the first time.
You gotta love a woman who has no idea she's being complimented lol...then seems unfazed when she realizes she is.
Imagine BDSM failing hard...

I love the way they did the reverse black and white.
Along with "Watchmen", "Sin City" is gradually faithful to the original graphic novel, word-for-word, frame-by-frame.
Watchmen may be a frame-by-frame adaptation, but the spirit of it is the complete opposite of the original.

@@NicholasCorvinway better movie than sin city and a actual fun watch
Many people mistakenly believe that Tarantino was working on a story about Dwight, because there is a lot of carnage, shurikens, and a katana just like in "Kill Bill". But in fact, Tarantino shot a single episode from this story - the one where Dwight hallucinates in the car talking to a dead Jackie Boy.
I never noticed nick offerman, only luz from band of brothers
16:21 that ring must've really messed frodo up
That’s not Frodo, that’s Kevin Sackville-Baggins. The family resemblance is quite uncanny, though.
@You, Me, & the Movies: Wow! As soon as I saw the thumbnail I HAD to click on it to watch your reaction.
Reaction to BRILLIANT movie 'Frank Miller's SIN CITY.'
Notice in the credits it only said, "Based on the SIN CITY Graphic Novels by Frank Miller," NOT "Screenplay by ( name. )" That's because brilliant director Robert Rodriguez had said that he considered this to be a translation NOT an adaptation.
The opening ( pre- beginning credits ) sequence - with "The Salesman" ( the hitman, played by Josh Hartnett, ) and "The Customer" ( Marley Shelton ) meeting on the rooftop balcony was actually filmed FIRST - as a proof-of-concept to get Frank Miller to allow Rodriguez to make 'SIN CITY.' That and he invited him to co- direct ( both that sequence, and then the movie. )
Not sure if you noticed or not - it's a subtle thing - "The Salesman" says, "I'll cash her check in the morning," meaning SHE PAID him to kill her. Or, as Marley Shelton explained in an extra feature on the DVD release, her character was trapped in a loveless marriage to a mob boss. She had cheated on him. He found out. Knowing that he would torture her first and then kill her, she opted to hire "The Salesman" to make her death quick and easy.
That was co- director, and source material writer-illustrator, Frank Miller as the priest in the confessional that "Marv" kills in the "The Hard Goodbye" story ( "Marv's" main story. )
No, Quentin Tarentino - who is a good friend of Robert Rodriguez - did NOT direct the sword-action sequences with "Miho" ( Devon Aoki. ) He directed the sequence where "Dwight" ( Clive Owen) has an imagined conversation with the dead "Jackie Boy" ( Benicio del Toro ) as "Dwight" is driving to The Pits to get rid of the dead bodies of "Jackie Boy" and his cohorts.
Jesus she was just not having any compliments, lmfao
I liked the Marv storyline the best.
Omg
Mrs. Movies: “Harry Potter?”🤣
Have to admit...
That's a really good call.
Honestly one of the most beautiful and gory movies ever created.
Not even close to being gory!
Mrs. Movie didn’t look all that blown away by this one… but it had other reaction channels literally shaking with ecstasy
Given, it’s a very dude-centric movie.
Well looking at the film now again its superass boring. Loved it back when it came out. But looking at it now its super slow, lame and uninteresting. And the story incoherent and stoopid. It just looks cool
Ecstasy for this garbage? LOL.
I think Mrs. Movies just has a generally deadpan demeanor. I've seen her many times profess to greatly enjoy things that her face has little reaction to. And there's nothing wrong with that (and as someone on the Spectrum I wonder if she is too)
@@HobGungan
I want to say that she’s mentioned that she is a few times, like in their reaction to the original ‘The Crazies’.
Dude! You really like living on the edge
4:11 kinda looks like she’s playing the sax lmao
I forgot what a great movie this was. Saw it in the theater when it first came out. Marve was such a great character among a cast of them. Rosario Dawson is one of the sexiest, most beautiful woman alive.
A couple of things: the car scene with Del Toro and Owen was the scene directed by Tarantino. Also Josh Harnett was called by RR to his studio home to ask if he'd do a test scene and Frank Miller was going to be there. Miller had been so underwhelmed and had yet to be convinced by previous attempts to adapt his work. He agreed and RR told he had scene with a couple of Actors he knew, Harnett and Marley Shelton, to do a green screen scene and add visuals. Miller was so impressed the actors, the vision, he agreed to let RR adapt the three stories. That's why Harnett isn't really in it as he joined in the testing phase. Later RR would ask him to come back and film another scene, the elevator one at the end. It's ironic you made the comment" they made Rourke look worse". In late 80s/very early 90s Rourke was considered a handsome heartthrob in Hollywood. It's only because he decided to take up professional boxing over acting(of which I'm sure he didn't lose any of the 10 fights he had), to which he started requiring surgery to injuries he was suffering, and sadly it something he continued to have alterations to his appearance long after he quit boxing and got back into acting. He also credited Stallone for getting him his acting career back by casting him in Drive in the early 2000s and thats why he did expendables as a favour to Sly. So maybe, without giving him they help, he may not of played Marv, and no one could've played the role better.
Powers Boothe as Senator Roark is just. SO. GOOD.
LOVED him in Deadwood.
Powers booth was such a good actor…i mean curly bill in tombstone, fraility,, etc
the wife seems not interested at all. Makes for a lame reaction.
@@tanelviil9149 She's always like that.
Bet she's terrible in bed.
@@tanelviil9149 Grow up
A year later came V For Vendetta, which was based on another Frank Miller book, but he refused to have his name in the credits .
The priest in the confession booth with Marv was Frank Miller himself.
He was also ‘Frank the Chemist’ in Robocop 2
Good to know.

Admitting guilt is actually required to get paroled. If you never admit you did it, even though you were convicted, it shows you have no remorse, so you'd do the same thing again if you were released. If you admit guilt and show remorse, then you are eligible for parole, though not guaranteed. Still, he'd be listed as a sex offender, on the registry, he'd be watched closely and have all kinds of mandatory therapy sessions and check ins with parole officers, maybe for the rest of his life. It was the Senator who got him out, though.
Saw this with my buddies in cinema when it came out. Up to this day, 19 years later, this is still sitting at the very bottom of our (very subjective!), currently 154 entries long "ranking of movies we've seen in cinema" board.
This just didnt click with any of us at all (or the crowd who was watching that day for that matter) and i still can hear one of my friends going "I've never seen THAT level of overblown nonsense in my life..." when exiting the cinema :D
Good times...
One of the very best and last good modern Noir Films ever made.
Eh, it's mediocre as hell.
@@HTHAMMACK1yeah and the second one is so bad most people forgot there is one
That would be The Spirit
"You won't even take the compliment."
"Oh, you're talking about me!" LOL
You have the same relationship my wife and I have had for the past 40 years. 😊
Elijah Wood and Wil Wheaton both seem like trench coat guys.
Don't know if anyone else posted this, but "The Big Kill" and "That Yellow Bastard" are separate books in the Sin City Books.
Good call, but wow, you just done gone and opened up an old blocked-away wound, lol. Back in the day, way back, when Clive Owen arrived on the scene with his break-out role in 1998's Croupier, the word was 'England' has found it's new Bond. Seriously, look up picks of him from back then, he looks like David Niven (the original person Fleming wanted) meets a young Sean Connery.
That Shakespearean dude played Luz in Band of Brothers
Ron Swanson and Endless Mike haha
A lot of tension between y'all watching this.... 👀
I died at the "You would fit in there" comment! XD ;P
The closest Clive Owen got to play a James Bond role was in a cameo on the crappy Pink Panther remake. But I agree, Clive would have been a great James Bond.
Actually, the Tarantino scene is the car scene with Dwight talking to dead Jackie Boy.
There's some minor change, but it was pretty faithful, like 90%, to the graphic novels, they pretty much used them as storyboards. And yes, I've read and own all seven Sin City graphic novels.
For me I like Dwight's story the best as the dialogue is pretty good especially with Jackie Boy, Marv's has the best action for sure, as sad as it is for me to admit I don't like Haragin's story all that much mainly because I'm not the biggest Nior Detective fan. Casting for this film is great thought.
Wife killed the whole movie! 😂
44:20 When you go in front of a Parol Board, if you don't show remorse and repentance, you are not getting paroled... you have to deny your guilt you are not showing remorse and repentance of your crimes.
The priest who Marv kills is played by Frank Miller -- the writer and illustrator of Sin City and of 300.
The one in the confession booth, not Rourke.
FUN FACT: Despite the fight scenes between Marv and Kevin, Mickey Rourke and Elijah Wood never actually met. (Not during production anyway.)
ANOTHER FUN FACT: There were no sets or locations. The entire movie was shot in a green room.
Nothing fun about that.
One Of My All Time Favorite Movies, Great Reactions Everyone 😊
Fun fact, the swords Miho used are the same ones from Kill Bill.
If you want to see Clive Owen at his best, watch "Shoot em up"!
I see you too are a person of culture. :)
Shoot Em Up, loved that movie, and wow, does it know how to get a guy/male/boy to eat his veggies, well, carrots at least, laughs
there's a similar "that one scene", in another good movie too (no Clive though, nic cage instead): Drive Angry (2011)
but, my my favorite movie with Clive, is King Arthur (2004), best arthurian movie, as it's about the historical arthur and his knights, it's done really well too, sighs, wish more people would see it and react to it
PS...
wait... is Miho better than "Black Mamba" (the bride)... did Miho kill "Uma" and take her legendary sword... laughs
the wife seems not interested at all. Makes for a lame reaction.
@@redmoonbloodmoon3161
Love that movie also.
Yessss finally someone I follow decides to react to this comic cult classic! Hope you watch the sequel too!
Robocop gun cameo, with Hartigan.
Please don't watch the sequel. She hates the style so much she'll dislike it, too. I like her, but hearing her hate on a movie for an hour is disapointing.
Yeah the second movie really upset me.
It's exhausting.
She didn't hate on this movie at all... What are you talking about. She mentioned on criticism about the dialogue and then it clicked for her when I told her it was comic book bubbles. That made sense to her. And she liked Sin City 2 even more. That will be out next Friday. Just because someone isn't over-reacting and being jazzed up, doesn't mean they don't like something. She just has a dry sense of humor and says things sarcastically. No idea where you got the notion she hated this tho.
This is Frank Miller he did Dark Knight and all the great Daredevil
Comics. He is legendary. However he is kind of to influential and we forgot some of the fun things about DC. He is a genius in my opinion. 😊
And he is also the priest killed by Mary
I like Frank, but not all of his work is…rational.
“Holy Terror!” Is considered by many to be his worst graphic novel and preaches more like a revolt against the Changing landscape after 9-11.
Not helped by what he did to The Dark Knight 2 comics!
I have the graphic novel series too. Love Frank Miller!
"thats nice of you" with absolutely zero emotion hahahaha
Amazing movie, great comic!
(Tarantino's scene is the one between Clive Owen and Benicio Del Toro-dead-in the car)
