To be honest, I wasn’t a huge fan of the first Sin City. I thought the movie, as a whole, dragged and all of the hard-boiled narration didn’t really work as an homage or a parody. I appreciated the film’s unique look and respected the fact that Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller really did succeed in creating a very real cinematic world but, on the whole, the film just didn’t work for me. It was a movie that failed to leave me excited, offended, enthralled, exhilarated, or angry. Instead, I was just bored.
Judging by how excited people online seem to be about Sin City’s upcoming sequel, I am very obviously in the minority.
And, I have to admit, I’ll probably end up watching Sin City: A Dame To Kill For. After all, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is in it. I just hope that, unlike just about every character in the first film, he doesn’t end up getting disemboweled or shot in the head.
Here’s the 2nd trailer for Sin City: A Dame To Kill For.
(Also, if somebody doesn’t create a parody called Sim City: A Dame To Kill For, I will end up losing all faith in the internet….)

I think what will bring me to go see this is Eva Green as The Dame to Kill For. You must admit that part of you wondering why you weren’t called in to be in that role. XD

I agree with you about the first one, it seemed like too much style and too little substance

I was bored as well, I thought the the first one came off as as black and white pro wrestling.
