The Spirit (2008)

Stylistically, this movie is fantastic. It’s a fun, over-the-top superhero movie. The plot is ok and very heavy-handed at times. This is definitely a fun watch if you want something visually different than what you are used to. Not much to say outside the story is fine, the characters are comic booky, and it's a visual piece.
