The Good: James Franco. His performance as Alien, a rapper and criminal, makes the film at least watchable for stretches. At one point, close to the middle of the film, it becomes decent before spiraling back into being awful again.

The Bad: The film is mostly about Spring Break debauchery and over half of the film revolves around lengthy scenes of people dancing, drinking, doing drugs, and having sex. It was like one long MTV special. I understand that they wanted to portray what goes on down there during Spring Break, but it seemed to be the main focus of the film and wasn't entertaining at all. I also had zero feelings towards the main characters of the film, who are four college girls who rob a fast food place to get the cash for their trip ... and then fall in with a criminal. I just didn't care about any of them and there wasn't much characterization. They were four random irresponsible college girls and nothing more.… Expand

The whole movie is like a weird trip, but Franco's character was too stupidly dressed (especially the gold teeth) to not think he was a parody. I actually really liked the plot, and the actors (especially Selena) were great, and the cinematography was BEAUTIFUL as well - but this movie was like a dramatic joke. I didn't feel a connection with any of the characters, and they all seemed like they had no chemistry with eachother.… Expand

No filme estrela várias atrizes talentosas como Selena Gómez e Vanessa Hudgens;a linhagem foi jogado bem em quem saía do lado do criminoso Alien (James Franco). Na trama temos a Ashley Benson e Vanessa Hudgens como vilãs do filme pois roubam um restaurante para conseguir ir no festival Spring Breaker. O filme não digo que é ruim pois é excelente temos que ter uma visão positiva dessa peça filmográfica,eu realmente gostei da atuação da Vanessa menos a da Selena que não se mostrou destemida sempre na dela.

O filme usa de elementos de cores,tipo em uma cena onde uma das meninas levou um tiro a luz verde caiu super bem nela,o jogo de luzes ficou super bem nesse filme e os sons também que achei super legais de ouvir,super originais.
Outro fato foi no fim (não vou contar o final rs) no último capítulo deste filme de novo o jogo de luzes e quebra de expectativa onde esperamos uma coisa e aí vai ser outra.

Em outro momento do filme teve uma parte onde tocava música agitada enquanto elas atiram,no filme também se usa muito um audiovisual com aúdio em cima como se elas tivessem contando a história é tip daqueles filmes de história real porém nem tanto.… Expand

the contrast between it's art-house narrative and it's trashy Miami theme is what makes the movie special, and James Franco's performance here is astonishing. The movie is odd and disturbing, but it's equally fun and enter

Foxes é maravilhosa. Eu amo tudo o que ela faz, tudo bem feito, impecável. Coisa de artista de verdade, é uma pena ver que não tem o reconhecimento merecido.

I didn't even love a single scratch of it. Even James Franco decides to waste his life playing in this plotless movie. The best part about it is that I'm reviewing this movie in Spring so you can't tell whether I'll see it again or not... but because my score is a negative, it means I don't want to see it again. If you're a critic and you decide to love watching this, you can save your life by getting some eye medicine. How in the world is such a film made in 2013 can be made to be absolutely to look shamefully bad in front of public? Now if we didn't had films like Scary Movie 5 or Grown Ups 2, this would've been the worst film of 2013 I've ever seen.… Expand

What happened to Mr. Korine?

This wretched "film" is the EPITOME of everything he was trying to annihilate in the 90s.

People are so hungry for something different these days, they'll praise a horrid mess like this as Christ's second coming.

When you're starving, a mold encrusted crumb seems like a feast.

People (artists and everyday folk alike) grow and change. And no, I'm not one of the vile cretin scumbags who "wishes Korine was still on drugs and living in misery", but this isn't "growth". It's a void.

Here's to hoping whatever he does next blows his prime years' beautiful, untouchable work out of the water (WRITING the screenplay for Kids, and writing and directing Gummo, and Julien Donkey Boy), and here's to also hoping that what he does next is so stunningly wonderful that it can bury his last 3 hideous works (Mister Lonely, Trash Humpers, and Spring Breakers). Each of those last 3 got progressively worse.

It does seem he's still got it in him to create real magic. It really does. He's a special and unique soul, but this one was off the charts nauseating and disappointing.… Expand

Başrolde sırf Selena Gomez var diye izlediğim, fakat beklediğimi bulamadığım. Klişe senaryoya sahip, bir grup gencin yaşadığı macerayı anlatıyor. Kötünün iyisi olarakta izlediğim filmler arasına giriyor.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall gooood, It surely had its imperfection like franco showing up to bail out and finding those girls fascinating for god knows what reason!, getting those girls into trouble even though he loved them and those brave girls wearing bullet proof bras and killing all the gangstas. But this all seemed fair to make film visually Bad Ass and make it look like a dream with hippy gangsta and their brave angels. worth a watch… Expand

One of the most underrated films of the past decade. This deserves a lot more praise.

The visuals, the performances (James Franco gives one of his best performances ever) and the piano scene alone should earn this a much higher score. It'sOne of the most underrated films of the past decade. This deserves a lot more praise.

The visuals, the performances (James Franco gives one of his best performances ever) and the piano scene alone should earn this a much higher score.

It's a tough movie to describe. Is it about sex? Drugs? Violence? Youth? All of the above? Is it about peer preasure? The american dream? Britney?

With all the stupid people going to spring break parties during a pandemic it's easier to see this as a very simple "spring breakers are **** stupid".

But is it really that simple? Honestly, I don't really care. The film is too well made for me to care about what it's trying to say. It's shocking, disturbing, and hypnotizing. it's Fear and Loathing in Florida.… Expand

Sure some of the acting may be cringe to some especially James Franco's role as "Riff Raff" however I enjoyed it all. Since this movie came out I was especially fond of Venessa Hudgens role and it was fun seeing Disney Girls play as the bad girls. Recommend to anyone who is a fan of Lynchian films especially with a mainstream twist. However if you come into this movie with the wrong expectations you will be disappointed - just a warning.… Expand

Some regard the film as sexist due to its gleeful depiction of a misogynistic society that objectifies women. Others consider the film to portray a girl-power camaraderie that empowers women. And still others have surmised Spring Breakers is a social commentary reflecting modern-day superficiality through highly stylized disposable decadence or the younger generation's self-destructive obsession with the hedonistic lifestyle. Personally, I believe all of these interpretations seem valid just as I believe Korine intended it to be open to interpretation. Despite my struggles with the lack of substance (especially the repetitive narrative fixations and crude dialogue), as a sensory overload of splashing colour and syncopated grooves it’s practically euphoric. After all, a film this loose and rambling may be best appreciated as a ‘sensory film’ more about feeling than action. It’s rare that I get the opportunity to see something so wildly disagreed upon and present a contrary opinion to the average critic and user scores. Thanks A24

Korine's movie is an iconoclastic masterpiece who paint on screen the nihilism that the youngsters are currently living in USA. It feels like a music videoclip rather than a movie and - I think - it's the first opera in cinema history with this vibes. There are no dialogues just monologues. This is brilliant too. I wish people could understand the deepest meanings ofy this movie. They're hard to see, but when you see 3 disney princess pissing on the street, you can grasp it. For me it's a ten.… Expand
