4.0 out of 5 stars
worth watching,
By
This review is from: Sin (DVD)
I found this to be an entertaining movie. No, it wasn't nominated for any awards, and rightfully so. But, that is no fault of the actors in it. Ving Rhames and Gary Oldman, gave their usual great performances, to an average movie. Rhames plays a tough ex-cop with a questionable past. Oldman plays a treacherous pornographer, out for revenge. My only complaint, is that there are several scenes with poor lighting. I don't know if this was done for dramatic effect, but it didn't work for me. I was pleased with the way the movie conveyed the message of how violent their world was, without being "overly" graphic. Overall, I say this movie is worth watching.

Death be not proud...,
By Grady Harp (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (TOP 50 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Sin (DVD)
SIN is a minor movie with a fairly substantive message once we get to it. The film is out of focus, meandering between the beauty of the Nevada desert and the wildlife of downtown Reno, and these poorly edited sequences blur the product and pull the film down. Ving Rhames is a man of the desert, having been dismissed from the police department for some specific blunders - 'sins' as it were - and is left with a moaning existence, a once strong man left with a useless left arm trying to keep his sister from spinning down the drug abuse whirlpool. Gary Oldman is the mastermind, omniscient bad guy out for revenge for his brother's death at the hands of Rhames and in an eye for an eye retribution - his target for retribution is Rhames sister. His stalking of Rhames and the ultimate confrontation of the two 'sinners' who must deal with 'the wages of sin is death' curse make up the bulk of this dark film. One comes away from watching this film feeling that a serious re-write of the bulk of the script might have lead to an insightful statement. But the usual patter of Hollywood pizzazz stealing the eye from the brain puts this movie in purgatory. Good actors make the best of a bad situation.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Pretty good revenge movie with Oldman and Rhames,
This review is from: Sin [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a pretty good cop revenge movie. Ving Rhames as
Eddie Burns tracking down the thugs who raped his sister and sold as porn is great. Oldman as Charile Storm the old enemey of Eddie whose out for his hide because of what he did to his brother is good too. Sure the movie isnt anything new but Rhames is hard to ignore as is Oldman, the cop shoot scenes is played well and there is some good suspense especially with the info about Eddie's partner who might be betraying him. Check out Sin.
