The Spirit

Ahh, Frank Miller's first movie since Sin City, however with him directing it. I thought this would be great. Plus Sam Jackson, Scarlett Johansson, and Eva Mendes in supporting roles.

I have to say the movie let me down. I enjoyed watching it from start to finish. However, this being Miller's first directed project with on supervision, he just didn't know what he was doing. The movie seemed rushed and there was little transitioning.

Gabriel Macht, played the lead, The Spirit. He was a cop who apparently died, but was saved by the afterlife. So he lives his life as a basically immortal savior to his city. He is also a womanizer. Macht does a charming job at his first lead role, and provides decent humor and action.

The movie, albeit justifed, seemed too much of a graphic novel brought to life, it was too jumpy as if the viewer was turning a page after each scene, instead of watching 1 masterpiece put together.

I'd say if you like these types of movie and are bored, give it a go.

I rate this movie 6.2 out of 10.
