The Spirit ( Blu-ray )

A good-guy cop is killed in the line of duty and comes back to life as shadowy crimefighter 'The Spirit', now pitted against 'The Octopus' whose main goal in life is to wipe out the city and take a bit of immortality for himself. Gabriel Macht is the eponymous hero who has a weakness for the fairer sex, and there's no shortage of potential love interests - Eva Mendes, Paz Vega, Sarah Paulson and Scarlett Johansson all co-star. Adapted from Will Eisner's legendary comic strip and directed with tongue-in-cheek humour (and characteristic visual flair) by Frank Miller ('Sin City', '300'). Imagine a decidedly adult, live-action Looney Tunes cartoon and you've got the idea.
