The numbers are in, "Sin City: A Dame to Kill For" might be the least successful movie of the summer

Unfortunately, a movie that we were all hoping would be excellent has turned out to be less than that, probably significantly so. Rentrack has reported that this weekend, Sin City: A Dame to Kill For came in a staggering 8th place at the box office with just under 6.5 million dollars in returns.

This is a crushing blow for a film that looked so promising. What with the success of the first Sin City and the high profile stars involved in acting and creating this movie, it's a shocker it didn't even make it to double digits. The combined efforts of Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez, Josh Brolin, Eva Green, Mickey Rorke and about a thousand other talented people didn't turn out a successful product.

I haven't made it to the theatre to see this yet, although given a few awful reviews that are already out there, this might be one just to watch at home. One of the best reviewers on the interwebz, Vince Mancini, sat through it yesterday and released this review. It paints a damning picture. Sorry in advance to anyone out there who wears fedoras.

If the likes of Eva Green and Jessica Alba can't bring people to see this movie, it must be pretty bad.
