Dave's "Other Media" Rant Special: The Spirit movie
I decided I didn't want to wait to put this into next week's Capsules.
:) Think of this as an oversized capsule, I don't intend to go into plot
spoilers, although I may give away details that might count as spoilery by
stricter definitions.
Short form: I liked it. A little overwrought in a few places where that
was a bad thing (and very overwrought in places where it was called for), but
a fun movie. Very little actual gore and only brief nudity (Eva Mendez's
backside). Not really family-friendly, but it's practically cuddly for Frank
Miller's stuff.
And now for the longer form.

[D'oh. I forgot to put a crosspost in on the post to RAC.reviews.]
Dave's Unspoilt Capsules and Awards
The Week's Picks and Pans, plus Awards of Dubious Merit
Standard Disclaimers: Please set appropriate followups. Recommendation does
not factor in price. Not all books will have arrived in your area this week.
I am now on knitting junk mail lists. Rants, Capsules can be found on my
homepage, http://www.eyrie.org/~dvandom/Rants
"Other Media" Capsules:
Things that are comics-related but not necessarily comics
(i.e. comics-based movies like Iron Man or Hulk), or that aren't going to be
available via comic shops (like comic pack-ins with DVDs) will go in this
section when I have any to mention. They may not be as timely as comic
reviews, especially if I decide to review novels that take me a week or two
(or ten) to get around to.

I like it, and I'm ordering the sequel. I love me some Jim Starlin!
But I do have to admit some surprise that DC decided to go ahead with
a sequel.
