Sin City: How typical of their genre(s) are your chosen texts?

Sin City is classified as a hybrid genre as it has a mixture of comic book and film noir conventions. The film is very typical of its genres due to the techniques and conventions it uses.
One of these relates to the characters within the film. In a film noir genre, a common protagonist tends to be male and normally has a health condition that maims them in some way and makes them seem less of a hero character, such as a mental condition or physical trait. In Sin City, this is applied and used with the main protagonists of the piece as each one seems to have a condition, e.g John Hartigan has angina and Marv has scars and cuts from fighting. These conditions push the protagonists to do some good, as they treat themselves like less of a person because of them, regularly insulting themselves in dialogue throughout the film, for example when John Hartigan is going to save Nancy when she's a child, one of the lines of dialogue he says is "prove you're not completely useless Old Man". This is a common trait in the film noir genre, and this film is no exception.

Another way that Sin City is typical of its genres is the fighting scenes it includes, which are typical of a comic book film because of their unrealistic appeal. In one scene where John is saving young Nancy and first goes to enter the place where she is, he completely breaks down the door with one arm and is shot around 10 times with a gun in vital places but still continues on. This is typical of a comic book genre film as the hero tends to be seen as almost invincible in most and isn't affected by "simple" injuries such as gun shot wounds or otherwise.
