In the ambitiously mystical 'Spirits of the Forgotten', director Sidney Lumoose crafts a serious foray into the supernatural genre that deftly balances family-friendly content with profound thematic explorations. Josh Leekas delivers a spellbinding performance as a clown with roots tangled in ancient lore, providing a touchstone for the audience's journey through this mythic narrative. Katharine Hempburn's portrayal of an assassin with ties to Native American heritage brings a sense of gravitas and intricacy, while Jonah Dill's conflicted mercenary adds a layer of moral complexity. The film's strength lies in its commitment to intertwining identity, legacy, and the perennial struggle between light and darkness. It is a narrative mosaic, richly imagined and woven with the threads of legend and the whispers of nature. Despite these lofty ambitions, the film occasionally falters under the weight of its own complexity, at times leaving the audience yearning for more clarity in the narrative tapestry. Nevertheless, 'Spirits of the Forgotten' stands as a captivating and serious entry into its genre, offering a spectacle that should resonate with those who seek depth in their cinematic experiences. Its PG rating is a testament to Lumoose's skill in crafting a tale that is as accessible as it is profound.
