Based on the critically acclaimed graphic novel by Frank Miller and directed with immense style by Robert Rodriguez, Sin City signaled a new found maturity in comic book to film adaptations that continued with Batman Begins and paved the way for the even darker The Dark Knight and Watchmen.

Sin City worked as a graphic novel and it works just as well, if not better, as a film. This could have been a disaster that forever sullied the name of comic book adaptations, but that mantel is still retained by Batman and Robin.
