I'm not sure I even lasted long enough to see the
intertwining of the stories. I'm usually fairly hardcore with
what I'll watch or read, and I just thought Sin City was over
the top in terms of violence and torture-porn, without
offering me enough story to care about.
*shrugs* It's not a judgment on the movie so much as a purely
personal impression. I might just have been having a bad
day.
