Review of Renaissance (2006) by Andres V — 04 Jan 2012
At the time of its release this movie had one of the coolest-looking trailer ever released. Sadly, the real thing doesn't get anywhere near it. In the shadows of "Sin City" and "A Scanner Darkly" and obviously paying tribute to "Blade Runner" it tries hard with the production design but in the end it feels too video-gamey in the narrative and in the animation.
As appealing as its graphic novel black & white look is, the animation is incredibly clunky and any comparison with "Sin City" would be just wasting time. It just feels like a very long in-game cinematic for a nonexistent videogame the audience never got to play with.
