Sin City (2005)

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris delve into the seedy underbelly of Sin City to celebrate the movie's 20th anniversary. Directed by Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller, Sin City adapts several of Miller's noir comic book stories with an all-star cast, including Bruce Willis, Mickey Rourke, Clive Owen, Rosario Dawson, Elijah Wood, Benicio Del Toro, Jessica Alba, Powers Boothe, Nick Stahl, and Rutger Hauer. Zach and Chris talk about the bizarre structure of the "Recut, Extended and Uncut" version of the movie, how this kicked off a Mickey Rourkeissance, all of the horrible things happening on the Roark family farm, how Kadie's Bar is a slightly grimier Coyote Ugly, and more. You can rent or buy Sin City on digital platforms like Amazon, Fandango at Home, and AppleTV+. Next week, with Viola Davis playing an ass-kicking president in G20, we're revisiting one of our favorite ass-kicking presidents, Harrison Ford, in Air Force One.
