When “The Spirit” and “Valkyrie” open this weekend, they have a lot of pushing back to do. “The Spirit” has been dogged by toxic word-of-mouth ever since Frank Miller’s trailer drew laughs at Comic-Con, and “Valkyrie” has been plagued with production problems, release-date switches and the image of Tom Cruise as a one-eyed German plotting to kill Hitler.
Still, who knows? Plenty of movies transcend their bad buzz or their packaging to deliver cracking entertainment. And for every one of those, there’s a movie that seems to have everything in place, but fails to seal the deal and actually be enjoyable. We thought it might be fun to take a look at some of those.
