Review of Spectral (2016) by Richardgonci — 03 Jan 2017
While much better than many films with similar plots (the CGI is top notch) Spectral suffers from an inherent problem of this "genre," to wit, if the enemy is categorically "soulless," for whatever reason, they are categorically less interesting as an enemy.
Same problem I have with puerile "Zombie Apocalypse" movies. I want my protagonists battling antagonists who are evil incarnate... and, to be that, you have to have free will and a soul... even a very dark one.
