![]() Adapted from the legendary comic strip, "The Spirit" is a classic action-adventure-romance told by genre-twister Frank Miller. It is the story of a former rookie cop who returns mysteriously from the dead as the Spirit to fight crime from the shadows of Central City. His arch-enemy, the Octopus has a different mission: he's going to wipe out Spirit's beloved city as he pursues his own version of immortality. The Spirit tracks this cold-hearted killer from Central City's rundown warehouses, to the damp catacombs, to the windswept waterfront--all the while facing a bevy of beautiful women, who either want to seduce, love or kill our masked crusader. Surrounding him at every turn are Ellen Dolan, the whip-smart girl-next-door; Silken Floss, a punk secretary and frigid vixen; Plaster of Paris, a murderous French nightclub dancer; Lorelei, a phantom siren; and Morgenstern, a sexy young cop. Then of course, there's Sand Sarerf, the jewel thief with dangerous curves. |

I had avoided this for years up until last night when I finally decided to give it a watch after picking up the DVD from the flea market for two bucks. Instead of the piece of shit that I thought it would be, it ended up being a VERY entertaining, well paced, action packed flick with some great dialogue, great characters (especially the major villains) and UNF...The Spirit himself was DAMN fine. I definitely recommend it. Just make sure you don't take it too seriously and don't go into it expecting it to be a dead serious film that beats out the likes of Sin City (which is what this is often compared to). Fun and entertaining but not much more. 7/10
