Spring Breakers - A Review

0 Stars - Horrendous

Few films have no good qualities at all. Few films are so atrocious that you can find nothing to feel about it other than hatred. Few films make you question the validity of cinema as an art form. This is one of those few films.

A film with terrible characters, awful acting, distracting editing, no story and nothing about it that is remotely good.

This film feels the need to flashback to stuff we've seen five minutes ago, and flash forward to stuff we'll see five minutes from now while the dialogue in the scene we're meant to be watching is continuing over it. This might be a vaguely interesting thing for one scene, but it is the entire film. The. Entire. Fucking. Film.

James Franco in this film, gives a performance of a white guy who thinks he is gangsta. He is so white that he makes Badger and Skinny Pete from Breaking Bad look like Avon Barksdale and Stringer Bell from The Wire in comparison.

If you want to make an art film, with unusual editing and moral ambiguity then that's fine, but I don't think it counts when your idea of art is girls shaking their breasts at the camera in slow motion. Fuck this film.

I have never hated people this much

In short, don't just give this film a miss, if you feel the want to see this film have yourself committed to some sort of institution for the mentally unstable.
