Ho-ly Fuck.

This is the best adaptation of a comic book I have EVER seen. Fucking incredible. I can't believe how incredibly exact all of the characters were. Marv was a carbon copy. I mean, he came to life right off the fucking page. And Frodo just wishes he could move like that! Goddamnit. I really hope that they film some of the other story lines like A Dame To Kill For. That would be so fucking cool! It's not often that I get so hyped up about going to see a movie and have it surpass how great I anticipated it to be.


If you haven't seen it yet, GO!! and if you have seen it what are your thoughts on this film?

I've read a little of the comic, and it seemed to me that it was very faithful to the book, but that this was its main problem. It convinced me that there are things you can do with pacing and structure in a comic book that will not work in a movie. The endless narration almost sank it, and unlike most people I know, I wasn't that impressed by the visuals (some of it actually looked cheap). Gotta go thumbs down on this one.

I think the movie was just great! It was supposed to look like a comic book, they weren't reaching for realism. I think the narration was pretty good. It made the goofy dialogue seem even sillier which was really funny. It is a very cool cheeze-fest like Night of the Living Dead. It is both a landmark and a great film. Hats off to Marv! And Captain Nazi. Best death scene ever. "Is someone going to call me a doctor?"

This film blew my mind on so many levels, and I was already the biggest fan of the comics! As it was, sitting in the theatre, by the end of the first story it was already worth the $10. (as well as that price the next 2 times I've been to see it).
As I am lacking in eloquence, I fidn that this review says it better than any other I've read: [link]http://www.thefourthrail.com/reviews/critiques/040405/sincity.shtml[/link]
