About this product

Product Information

Based on Will Eisner's classic 1940s and '50s comic series and written and directed by his acolyte Frank Miller, THE SPIRIT follows the adventures of the crimefighter of the title (Gabriel Macht), a former cop mysteriously brought back from the dead. Hiding his identity as Denny Colt behind a mask and a fedora, the Spirit, now seemingly indestructible, protects his beloved Central City from his mortal enemy, the Octopus (Samuel L. Jackson), while contending with the many women in his life, including the doting Ellen Dolan (Sarah Paulson) and the dangerous Sand Seref (Eva Mendes).Credited with co-helming the film adaptation of his renowned SIN CITY comics (with Robert Rodriguez), Miller turns to one of his primary influences for his solo directorial debut. Not surprisingly, he uses the hyper-stylized SIN CITY look as a template for THE SPIRIT, allowing Eisner's pulpy vintage aesthetic to merge with SIN CITY's gritty atmosphere. Macht is well cast as the brooding Spirit, who has a habit of talking to himself at length, while Jackson gleefully chews scenery and burns through costume changes as the quirky, egg-obsessed Octopus. Although Paulson, Mendes, Scarlett Johansson, and others are largely relegated to "Bond girl" status, they play their roles with declarative verve, making THE SPIRIT an enjoyably campy addition to the pantheon of comic-book movies.

  • CATCH THE SPIRIT IF YOU CAN

    Features Actors:Scarlett Johansson,Eva Mendes,Sarah Paulson,Samuel Jackson,Louis Lombardi,Gabriel Macht, Dan Lauria Running Time:108 Min. Rating:PG-13 Surrounded by a menagerie of bizarre when not silly fellow citizens, the undead former rookie cop Denny Colt now morphed into The Spirit, runs interference with mixed results against Sam Jackson's fiendish extreme villain, Octopus and his shrewd sidekick Silken Floss (Scarlett Johansson). More than evening the odds, Silken surrounds herself with a murderous crew of homicidal fatty clones like an underworld Madonna bossing around an obedient crew of bad and badder boy toys. In the midst of perpetually picking up the pace of all sorts of erotic when not surreal sleuthing, Miller backs up for a coming of age, mean streets interlude when a ...

  • I really WANTED to like this... But...

    I was very excited about The Spirit because I am a big fan of Sin City and was looking forward to see Frank Miller in action again. Also, the cast seemed to be a great lineup. However, it doesn't matter how good the actors are if the plot and script are lame, and I am here to tell you -- I don't even think the likes of Anthony Hopkins and Meryl Streep could have saved The Spirit for this reason. I kept waiting for the story to intrigue me and for the characters to develop. I watched a couple of people walk out of the theater about an hour through... Finally, I checked the time (never a good sign when you're watching a movie), only to discover that the movie was nearly over, and there would be no chance for redemption. Aesthetically, The Spirit was interesting, but I couldn't help feeling ...

  • The Spirit is a great "Fun Movie."

    "The Spirit" was done in mock comic style similar to the techniques used in Sin City and 300. "The Spirit" was unexpectantly humourous and campy in some areas that give it a sense of pulp nior and is a great addition to Eisner's legacy of comics. Samuel L. Jackson steals the show as a villian and Scarlet Johanson is the perfect number one henchman. This is a great movie for a fun movie night.

  • Batman and Robin is better than this!

    I kept an open mind about this movie when I saw all the bad reviews. I like comic book movies and I never saw this movie so i picked it up. I Thought The Spirit was an interesting character, kinda like Batman, being a private eye/detective and keeping his secret identity but i was wrong about this movie. I tried to watch and enjoy it for what it was i really did, but just the beginning of the movie was areally bland and all over the place. I tried to appreciate the goofyness, but it's so goofy that its stupid. Especially the octopus (the main villian. This movie seemed like it didn't take itself seriously. I know it was suppose be like that, but to a certain amount of goofyness, come on man! This movie SUCKS! I felt like falling asleep at the beginning because it's so stupid and boring and ...
