Spirit


Okay, I was mildly pleased, entertained, but this movie has yet to be made.

When it comes to comic book action and stylized imagery, "Sin City" remains the standard!

Spirit, played by Gabriel Macht, never quite gets off the page, so to speak. Lackluster? It takes considerable skill to play camp - for whatever reason, none of the cast are able to bring it off.

Script? Editing? Not sure ... but it left me flat!

What with all the good movies currently out, don't waste your time or your money, but if you're interested in the genre, it's worth it, if only to see how difficult it is to bring it off.

Glad I saw it - it's a film genre I really love, but this one needs to go back to the drawing board.
