Frank Miller - there IS egg on your face!!
By NativityInBlack (119 reviews) from Birmingham , 02 Jan 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
Frank Miller needs to get another director to bring his visions to life, where Robert Rodriguez and Zack Snyder made brilliant adaptations of Millers graphic novels (Sin City and 300 respectivly), on this occasion Frank has gone it alone in the directors chair and the film feels....flat.
The characters are 1 dimentional and feel totally detatched from the viewer, and most of the time from each other too. You nver feel any attatchment to Spirit and dont particularly care what happens to him, further since we dont really see any citizens there isnt much concern for 'his' city either. the acting is ropey and even the stylised visuals feel tired and unimaginative, where dashes of colour were powerful in Sin City the whole film feels awash with blandness.
I highly recommend NOT seeing this film, 3/10 - total snooze fest- Was this review helpful to you?

(208)Oh The Pain in this movie
By JasonP26 (6 reviews) from London , 23 Feb 2011So you saw Sin City and thought 'this movie is similar, this should be great'
Dear God!! this movie was painful, it hurt me in ways I can't describe. Took it out of my Blue Ray drive after 30mins and quickly forgot about it.- Was this review helpful to you?

Tedious is a good adjective!
By davyjohn (10 reviews) from Maidenhead , 15 Dec 2010I didn't know what to expect from this DVD. If I had, I wouldn't have rented it. I guess it's based on some comic book character who I hadn't heard of it ... I'm not into them in a big way. Perhaps that was my problem since I would imagine big fans of the genre might appreciate it more. Dark and ominous lighting (in fact I think it all took place at night) didn't help ... so depressing. To sum up ... not my bag and, oh yes, tedious.- Was this review helpful to you?

Where is the Spirit?
By a customer from Bury, England , 23 Aug 2010A slow, dull film that has the style of Rodriguez's Sin City, but none of the class. If you're expecting something great, then don't.
I managed 20 minutes and that was pushing it.
2 hours??- Was this review helpful to you?

OK not brilliant
By a customer from London , 18 Aug 2010Worth watching if you have a few hours to spare if only for Jacksons performance and the plethora of gorgeous ladies in the film.- Was this review helpful to you?
