Watchable,but still ten times worse than Sin Cty

Not only is this easily the worst comic book and super hero movie, this could very well be the worst film from Hollywood ever.

At first it looks okay but turns out to be a horrid mess of a movie.

please, frank miller, make more comic books.

Very mediocre. it looks great, but it struggles to maintain its balance because it is too stupid to be taken seriously and not spirited (no pun intended) enough to be successful as the camp that it is clearly aspiring to be.

#11#, popcorn, story, casting.

Common, it wasn't that bad! It was pretty good. It looks fantastic. Too bad it's only some sort of remake of sin city. The love story is a bit dragged into it. But it's a funny movie, and I liked it.

Not quite deserving of its terrible reputation. It's a fun movie that doesn't take itself too seriously. There's a sense of self-awareness as everyone involved seems to be in on the joke. The action is cartoonish, the dialogue absurd, and the visual style punctuates the comedy well.

Phenomenally bad. I can't figure what they were aiming at--at times it seemed like a kids' movie, like a parody, and like a Sin City wanna-be. The dialogue is some of the worst I have ever heard. It's not mind-blowingly weird, or so-bad-it's-funny, it's just a failure on every level.

The lack of visual consistency really helps keep the viewer from getting too close to the story and this allows it to be an extremely enjoyable feast of other people's decisions which you, the viewer, are free to wonder about. One can only ask "Why?" almost constantly and this is enjoyable. Also, it looks cool and has Samuel L. Jackson calling things weird for minutes at a time.

Make no mistake, this is a very bad movie but at the same it succeeds in being so bad that it's actually hilarious. Miller frakked it up big time!

I quite enjoyed Samuel L. Jackson's character and the visuals were good. That is all. The rest, blergh.

A complete failure, one of those real head-scratchers.

Nice comic book environment with Samuel L Jackson great character.

This is niether a good or a bad movie. Considering the cast you would expect expect something far better. This film falls in to the so good it bad catagory. It feels more like a throwback to the old B-rated crime movies of the 30's the the comic. People who watch it hoping for another Sin City are going to be disappointed

The Spirit felt much longer than it really was. That's never a good sign. There was little to keep me watching it, save for the interesting visual style that was already done a few years prior in Sin City. And at least in that case, I was entertained for the majority of the time. The Spirit falls flat, mostly because of its uninteresting character, lackluster acting and almost non-existent story. It's intermittently funny, but that, and the visual style, is about all I can say is worth praising.

So boring

Once you get past the horrid directing and vision of The Spirit, you're left with sub-par dialogue, bleak action and a retarded story. It's definitely not the worst thing I've ever seen though.

Complete trainwreck, everything about this is bad but somehow it's still vaguely enjoyable. Visually it resembles a media student trying to copy Sin City on a tight budget. The script is terrible. It tries to be a humorous pastiche (at least I hope that was the intention), but nearly all the gags fail. On the plus side, it has Johansson and Jackson clearly having great fun hamming it up. Egg-obsessed Nazi Samuel L Jackson melting a kitten will stay with me forever.

The movie is visually stunning. The dialogue is stilted but remember that this movie is based on a graphic novel. The whole style is a direct translation of a graphic novel. The beginning was a bit slow but by the end of the movie I was drawn into the story.

More like Samuel LOL Jackson. Just watch it for the Sam Jack

Somewhat disappointing. I was hoping to be blown away by stylish cinematography and story, but neither really quite got there. While it didn't meet my expectations, I found it somewhat enjoyable ... better than Schumacher's Batmen at least, if that says anything.

An alright movie that could have been much more fan that has a Sin City film style with a Rocketeer like story. Does go a bit stupid at times, but it is worth a watch.

Doesn't convince on any aspect.

One of the funniest movies I've seen in a while. Samuel L. Jackson's character is priceless. My only real complaint is that this needed to be rated R so the camera didn't have to zoom out when Mendes was naked. Shameful I tell you. Grade: B-

There's a special genre of films, where the story doesn't count, dialogs and monologues are as wooden as an old wardrobe, but all female characters are richly endowed, wear funny outfits and have hots for the protagonist: it's called an erotic movie. Alas, to the dismay of all male viewers, there's absolutely no hint of anything you wouldn't want your ten-year-old daughter do. We'll have to satisfy ourselves with ogling half a dozen of really beautiful women - the only strong point of this film.
