After much encouragement from a friend, I finally watched the 2nd instalment of the Sin City franchise. I watched the first for the first time a few months ago which I really liked. As much as I liked this one, I think sequels bring something else to the table and you can't really compare an original with its predecessor. Regardless of this, I really enjoyed the film. I found myself impatiently waiting for the resolve of Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character arc to find it wasn't really as integral to the story as I'd hoped. It's like the main arc of the film is new characters with the followings of the plot of the first film is a secondary arc with another arc thrown in for character background. This is far from a complaint, I actually quite liked this set-up. However, I would've liked a bit more development on from the first in this sequel rather than spending most of the film on other characters and then having the climax an ending to the first saga. It felt more like a spin-off, to be honest. Also, special mention for the graphics and editing which are one of a kind and will always be iconic.
