I heard the The Spirit was going to be alot like Sin City, so I was very eager to watch it.  However, it didn't take long to realize that it was not going to be one of my favorites.  There are several similarities between the two, like mostly black and white and based on comic books, but The Spirit is not near as attention grabbing.  The Spirit had less of a plot and was at several times, very cheesy.  I fell asleep at the end of the movie and returned it without watching the ending.  I really don't feel like I missed anything.  I really enjoy watching movies, but I would pass on this one....
