Film Review Quotes
- "A comic-book movie must observe the narrative rhythms, scene construction, character development and dialogue delivery that cinema has honed for more than a century. The Spirit does none of this, and it is truly a mess. Fans of Sin City and 300 will populate theaters for the film's opening, but boxoffice will fall quickly. The film's campiness might then pull in a different sort of aficionados -- those who celebrate films such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show for their silly acting and overripe dialogue."—Kirk Honeycutt, The Hollywood ReporterThe Hollywood Reporter: Film Review: The Spirit (December 18, 2008)
