8. The Spirit (2008)
This is Frank Miller’s noir fever dream, dripping with so much style it forgets to add substance. The visuals are a dizzying blend of black-and-white with splashes of red like a comic book spilled onto the screen. The dialogue is so melodramatic it could rival a soap opera, and the plot twists veer into the absurd faster than the titular hero sprints across rooftops. Yet, its over-the-top campiness and unapologetic theatrics make it a bizarrely entertaining ride through superhero absurdity.
