Despite handsome production values and a crackerjack supporting cast, "The Shadow" remains a temperamental trinket that lacks the temerity to truly explore, as its titular hero would say, what evil truly lurks in the hearts of men.

It's an entertainment that deserved to have become the first of a series.

Despite similarities as a vigilante creature of the night, however, the Shadow -- a character that enjoyed its greatest success in radio after being created in pulp novels -- lacks the visceral appeal of Batman and won't strike the same chord.

What's on the screen is so tired by now that you've seen it before even if this is your introduction to the Shadow.

It offers a diverting, nostalgic retreat to the innocent days when crime fighting was a pleasant, rich man's hobby.

It has enough of the innocent exoticism and splendor of silent thrillers to suggest a continuity with the past missing from most other movies; all that's required is a capacity to sit back and dream.

This thing is all packaging and no content, or, dare I say it, all shadow and no substance.

Baldwin's low-key performance lacks charisma, Lone alternates between lip-smacking villainy and camp humour, and Miller is chiefly a clothes-horse for a series of slinky '30s frocks.

Very underrated and incredibly entertaining...

Polished to a high surface gloss, but nothing lurks beneath; nothing at all.

The movie has all the coherence of a bad acid flashback.

A pleasant, eye-pleasing movie.
