Maybe it was just me, but I could hardly stand to watch this show, even with such starlets as Scarlet Johansson an Eva Mendes. I was a really disappointing ride through a pretty decent graphic novel from Frank Miller. I thin that due to the success of Sin City and 300 that Mr. Miller might have assumed an instant hit. The truth is that this is not a comic that should have been translated to film to begin with.
Mr. Miller has managed to run through his more popular pre-existing work as part his earlier films. And The Spirit marked his first screenplay adaptation from Will Eisner’s original comic. I honestly hope that Mr. Miller gets better at this than reflected in The Spirit, else he fall to the curb as another brilliant but burned out two-timer.
