I guess a movie this brassy, sumptuous, and unafraid of what-the-hell effects, gags and visuals isn't enough for a lot of people. I don't really know why.

Frank Miller will undoubtedly make a movie worth watching one day, but it isn't The Spirit.

A blissfully coked-out-of-its-mind spit-take on Eisner and the modern world of superhero cinema, The Spirit is wet bag of hot breath.

Every once in a while a genuine turkey escapes the coop, bereft of charm or wit, utterly lacking in technical prowess, integrity or intelligence. 'The Spirit' is such a film.

Denny Colt might have come back from the dead, but The Spirit stays cold on the slab.

If Will Eisner's comic and legacy was a flag, Miller would be that person stomping it in to the ground and lighting it on fire.

What is most striking about The Spirit is how little pleasure it affords, in spite of its efforts to by sly, sexy, heartfelt and clever all at once.
