I don't think this (or Sin City for that matter) count as visual gimmicks. The style adds something to the movie or attempts to set it in a certain recognizable style. I think Sin City won't be the same movie without it's visual style.
And I don't think there's many movies taking post processing this far. Other than Sin City and this movie, I don't know of any.
Sin City had that style to get the feel of the comic which it did very well.

Also, gimmick or not, every movie has a style. Something shot on film has a very different style from something shot on video. Some productions just take it further.
what's the diff between video and film

video records information magnetically
film records information photographically

photographically - as in silver phosphor thingies reacting to light right?
magnetically = ?
is this related to why movies look different than news recordings?

a vid frame is interlaced - 2fields and 30fps
a film frame is not interlaced its like a still and the framerate is 24fps
plus film can have a fucload more actual resloution
those fundemental diffs contibute greatly to the diff looks of each

Film has a different color spectrum, different framerate, slightly better resolution over HD, sometimes visible grain
