The Spirit

This movie had a lot of potential. The comic artist, writer and inspiration behind "300" and "Sin City". You'd think it would at least be as good as those films. But you would be seriously wrong. The first time director Frank Miller completely misses the mark with this movie that just goes to show that some people should just stick with what they're good at.

The acting is the worst part of the movie. The acting in this movie makes Jim Carrey look subtle. It's more over-the-top than Sylvester Stallone in the movie "Over the Top" (truck driver arm wrestling movie...don't ask). Along with the bad acting is the horrible, horrible dialogue and the terrible story.

Probably the only redeming quality about the film is the special effects and the art direction. Other than that, skip this flick.

Rating: 2 out of 10
