i must have seen a different film!!
Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
This movie is like a Sophia Coppola Scott Pilgrims Vs the World, an intimate take on the dream-pop female experience but with video game action/gangster neon. I'm not overwhelmed by any performance, but I am glad that they all did something I wasn't expecting them to do. And that's the best take from this film, it is unexpecting.
'Spring Breakers' may be a 'Spring Breakers' may be a visually striking film with beautiful cinematography by Benoît Debie, but unfortunately, ends up being another "style-over-substance" movie. The main flaw in this movie is the slow-moving plot that makes the movie drag on. While it's only around 90 minutes, it feels much longer and is rather difficult to maintain a focused attention. The climax of the film, however, is quite brilliant and makes you leave the film considering it wasn't that bad. The main that kept me going throughout the duration of this film were the visuals. The bright, neon color palette, combined with the beautiful direction by Harmony Korine and striking cinematography by Benoît Debie resulted in this film being hypnotic and extremely aesthetically pleasing (as can be seen in the film poster). The atmospheric score by Cliff Martinez was also a highlight and was unfortunately often disrupted by the dubstep tracks of Skrillex which was not favorable. The well-known leading actresses, such as Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson, Vanessa Hudgens who are all familiar from teenage sitcoms, were satisfactory, but nothing special in their roles. Their characters were rather complex and an odd mixture of sexism and feminism which ultimately didn't work. The highlight for acting would definitely have been James Franco, despite him playing a creepy and unlikable character. Ultimately, this movie was very stylistic with beautiful visuals and an atmospheric score that saved the movie from its boring plot and average acting from the leading female cast. film with beautiful cinematography by Benoît Debie, but unfortunately, ends up being another "style-over-substance" movie.

I rarely give any non-Adam Sandler movie a 1/10. But this one deserves it.If I were to summarize the movie in one sentence then it's just a lot b**b shots and no story. And it also has that Disney chick with the big head.Seems like the filmmakers only intention was to "titillate" the audience and nothing more.
'Someone' told me to watch this movie (and I am not going to forgive that someone!) if I want to relax my mind. And guess what I wanted to relax and did this mistake.Overall you will try to find something in this movie, but till the end, it won't give you anything. You will end up in frustration by keep listening one word again and again "Spring break". Okay, we got that this movie is focused on spring break, but how much time we have to listen to just one thing again and again. Not only this, there are many scenes which keep repeating and you won't have any clue why this is happening.NO plot, NO objective, NO story, NO script writing and they were literally out of good dialogues also. This could be one of the reasons why they just kept repeating few lines. God knows why Selena Gomez was in this movie! She hardly gets a chance to appear on the screen. 4 girls bored with their routine and want to enjoy. They rob a restaurant to get money and go to spring break. For what? For drink? Drugs? Fun? Sex? Bullshit? really? they can do all these at their college!! Why go and waste money? At the end they got nothing and we get a headache with a mixture of frustration! Overall in this movie, there is no objective getting clear, because of poor story-line and plot. There is not a single moment which you can enjoy in this movie. Dear God, give me some power to go in past and get my 94 minutes back! Believe me, that 'Someone' who suggested me to watch this movie is going to pay for this
