Foster slams 'offensive' 'Sin City'
Jodie Foster has slammed 2005 film Sin City for being offensive and claimed she is shocked that people find the subject matter humourous.

The Inside Man actress insisted that she does not like viewing films that centre around the abduction and molestation of children, like that in the Robert Rodriguez film.

Talking about the movie, which starred Bruce Willis, Clive Owen and Jessica Alba, Foster told USA Today: "That was so painfully cartoonish I was offended.

"I don't know how you enjoy or laugh about a child abduction and molestation. What part of that sentence is funny?

"I can't get beyond that. I don't know if everyone understands the impact of that movie's message."
