And while Miller attempts to replicate the noir of his early comics, it all feels like an empty pastiche with no geniune emotion to be found. The characters aren't interesting, and the performances range from stone-faced and wooden to shrieking and hysterical over kill. Looking at this film with it's hyper-noir asthetic, overly reminiscent of Sin City, one get's the feeling that Miller may owe Robert Rodriquez a big royalty check.
It's a nice film to look at, but not much else. The biggest problem ( and there are many) is the shallowness of this effort. She fled to Europe to earn those riches she desperately craved and rid herself of her own identity. They were close childhood friends, until her father was shot by cops. She loved Denny Colt before he was the Spirit. One is a femme fatale anti herione, Sand Sarif (Eva Mendes) and the other is Ellan Dolan (Sarah Paulsen) the police commissioners daughter. And just like any hero, he has women to love. He has an arch-nemesis who goes by the name of The Octupus, played by Samuel L.
Besides that one detail, he's just like any other hero. Open since 1983, Spirit Halloween offers a unique, frightfully fun experience unlike any other stores in the business. The Spirit, as this masked viligante is known, is a ghostly masked hero, the only man to have escaped the Angel of Death. With around 1,400 stores open across the United States and Canada for the Halloween season, Spirit is the largest Halloween store franchise in the nation. Take one look at The Spirit, and you could see why. But how is it that Frank Miller got to direct and write his own film? Yes, he was the co-director (allegedly) on Sin City, but so what? How much directing did he actually do on Sin City? What did he learn? I would like to suppose that he didn't learn much at all.
#Spirit series
Not that one should wonder how another superhero film was greenlit, for that much is obvious. Songs In the Quay of Life is a series of live performances that were filmed in the Spirit Store during the winter lockdown at. It's more than a bit perplexing to ponder how The Spirit came to be.
