There is only one redeeming factor about this movie, the fact that Trakt give rating of 1 heart the name 'Weak Sauce :(' as that describes this movie perfectly.
People may say that this is a more 'arty' film, let's be frank, it's not well enough executed to be one, I've seen better arty films elsewhere.
Not only that, but I just can't get over the plot holes, which includes some typical Hollywood style puffery, for instance, the girls hold up a cafe (I think) at gunpoint, steal money from the till without wearing gloves (so you'd think there are fingerprints at least), the girls later get arrested during Spring Break (so I'd imagine fingerprinted), so I'm either over-estimating police intelligence or information sharing, or that was a pretty big plot hole.
In addition, when they are outside the diner/superette(?) and they re-enact the hold up, how that scene would go completely unnoticed, boggles my mind, it just doesn't make sense to me.
Apart from what I feel like plot holes, the proportion of runtime spent on mindless dribble/fast cuts/etc (which is really the director trying to be artsy) bored me out of my mind like you'd never believe.
In summary, I want my hour and a half back!
So unbearable to get through.
I thought this would be a typical (crappy) Spring Break movie, but it turned out to be a (very) good movie in a really weird way.
The unchronological scene editing was working on my nerves in the beginning, but after some time it really added something to this kinda weird party-hard movie.
"Spring Breakers is easy to hate and difficult to love, a quality by which all great art should be measured."
Just watched this movie again for Selena Gomez, I thought her acting was great. But everything else in the movie is just disappointing.
Too much style, not enough content.
Crap writing, crap editing. Nearly every line of dialogue is repeated 2, 3, 4+ times. Several places feature reused footage. The same reused footage. 3+ times. This story could have been told in well under an hour. Hearing Ellie Goulding's "Lights" play over the end credits was the absolute last straw—good song, tacked onto a terrible film. That licensing deal should be retroactively canceled.
Garbage, to many flash back type crap and repeats of audio, it was so bad i would rather watch Tyler Perrys movies.
i just watched this movie for the second time and it's still fantastic
Ever see a movie and you suddenly realize your IQ is dropping? That's this movie. I seriously cannot believe this movie got made, or that anyone in charge of the budget signed off on it. It's horribly dull, just scene after scene of people dancing and partying. These four "ladies" go on "spraang braaaake" and bad stuff happens. I kept waiting for the point, but really, the movie has nothing to say other than "look at these ladies in their bikinis." I guess the "moral" is that you shouldn't do bad things or bad things might happen to you? Maybe?
My least favorite part was the constant repetition of lines. I feel like the "writers" couldn't come up with good dialogue, so when they found something they liked, they repeated it. At one point, the girls get arrested, and they keep saying "it wasn't supposed to be like this" over and over. I'm not kidding, I think they said it six or seven times. The film is visually stunning, if I'm being positive. They spent a LOT of money on neon lights and fake guns...and swimsuits. SO MANY swimsuits, and so many closeups of women in swimsuits. I kinda feel like the director graduated from "Girls Gone Wild" to artsy films, but this need more plot, character arcs, and less of James Franco's teeth. If you want to hear people say "spraang braaaake forevvvvvahhh" many MANY times, go for it.
you are all wrong this movie is fucking awesome
What a loathsome movie. Trying to be art house, but just a poor excuse for soft porn. The only redeeming feature was James Franco as Alien.
tits and james franco, all the rest is bullshit. vanessa is awesome as always though, that ugly selena will never catch up
Well played pop culture take on today's society
I can't believe that a man and two girls with a NAME let themselves be part of this.
P.S.: Hannah from PLL is playing the same role.
not a bad idea of a movie but just into this film
Lush and distinct visual language throughout the film. A study in girls harnessing their youthful power and wielding it fearlessly.
A wild hair re-watch with the wife and her girlfriend. Dug it pretty well the first time around. "Sprang Breeaakkk Forevah!"
Worst movie I have seen in 2013 so far
uh honestly this movie changed my perspective in a lot of things in life, def one of my favorites
what is wrong with this director?
Is it a movie? Or just a trailer? Or a music video?
I wonder if this would be received differently nowadays, considering we’ve become far more accustomed to films where the protagonist is either annoying and/or irredeemable from the start. This is essentially made for people who get some perverse fun out of watching reality tv, it’s not for people who genuinely watch that shit (or even watch it as a guilty pleasure). This thing is like an intentional hate watch, and if you’re open to that you should be able to have fun with it. I liked the satire early in the film, as well as the dark comedy that appears later on. It looks a lot better than most reality tv of course, this has some great lighting and cinematography. It’s suitably pornographic and a lot of the music is complete dogshit, which fits with the vision of the filmmaker. The score is pretty nice, it feels like Cliff Martinez was still in Drive mode when he composed it. That being said, I don’t think the writing is particularly sharp. Much like Triangle of Sadness or Don’t Look Up, what it’s doing is very obvious and it never digs any deeper to say something truly bold. The bit becomes more and more played out as the film goes along. Moreover, there’s something a bit snooty about an arthouse filmmaker that makes a film like this about the uncultured. Going back to my earlier point, there’s only so much you can do with boring, vapid people, so this won’t challenge anyone with two working brain cells. Idk, it’s all a bit too obvious and low for it to be truly great, but I still had fun with it.
5.5/10
Greatest film ever made. Will never be topped.
bad bad bad movie ! just a waste of time ! I prefer The Bling Ring ! WAAAAAAY BETTER !!!!
Finally got to seeing this and the exploitative eye candy is there as expected alongside the heavy handed satire, but it didn't all come together for me. Some good moments in a surprisingly dull film despite all the chaos.
5.4 for me.
I am not even sure what to say about this movie. I don't mind movies that become what this movie becomes in the final act... it just all felt really pointless. It ended and I could only shrug and move on with my day. Complete apathy.

Worst movie I've ever seen in my entire life...
I was looking forward to see it since I love most actors of the casting ( Especially Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens and James Franco) but it was disapointing.
The movie is not captivating at all and really boring.
Between Trash Humpers and Spring Breakers have a Black Keys Gold on the ceiling short videoclip: ATL Twins :laughing: Well, I really like the break of expectation here... Even more for anyone don't know anothers Harmony Korine works, but this is awesome compared with all he made before. Great acting, James Franco and all the ex-Disney girls. Great cinematography, great score and use of slow motion. The robbery scene saw on pick-up is f....ing genial and the piano Britney Spears tribute was marvellous. Wow, a good Scarface reference on the ending. WTF
Beautiful women wasted in a forgettable, goofy movie. That leads to nothing. Some critics managed to call it one of the best movies of 2013 though.
Huge disappointment. I was expecting what it said, a dark comic look at an American tradition. Instead it was... whatever that was. It's my own fault, I know Harmony Korine sucks shit and hasn't made a good movie in 25 years. The last time I got tricked into watching one of his movies was ten years ago for Trash Humpers, which is likely the worst piece of garbage I've ever seen in my life. Can't believe I fell for it again. I will say, it had some very nice Miami-esque visuals at times. See you in ten years for your next dumpster fire, Harmony.
The film's aesthetic is so beautiful! tears
Holidays! An ode to the tourism of desmadre.
Faith is the smart of them all, whoa. I totally didn't recognise Vanessa Hudgens there.
They should really make that "Everytime" bit the new music video. Pure gold.
The boobs don't worth watching it.
A new concept for "bizarre"...
Awfully pretty, in a supersaturated, nauseating sort of way. A spiritual sequel to Kids, it reeks of smugness at its own profondity, but beneath the cotton candy colors, guns, drugs, bare female body parts, and provocation, there's really nothing there.
Walked out of the theater.
Watched 40 minutes of this and quit. Incredibly stupid, trying-to-be-artistic movie. Thumbs down. Did not get to me at all.
Pretentious piece of crap - worst movie ever.
This movie is a terrible excuse for teenage exploitation-horrible
A strange film indeed, both titillating and uncomfortable yet undeniably entrancing!
Franco is superb and the four lead girls surprisingly make the jump from teen starlets to adult stars fairly convincing.
A clever take on teenage excess that makes you question whether you should or shouldn't be aroused by the scantily (if at all) clad young women so often associated with the world of teenage media.
Weirdest movie I've seen for a while. The outfits were brilliant though, I don't think the 4 girls wore anything but bikinis the entire length of the film.
2/4 of the chicks were hot: Ashley Benson and Vanessa Hudgens
3 Stars for them. Oh and also Franco was good as usual, still not enough to save the film though.
What a music video.. any way i love it.
Easily the biggest steaming pile of crap I've seen in a long time.
damn, what a bad movie
Well that was a wasted 93 minutes....
Easily the most artistic movie I've ever seen that includes scenes of frat bros pouring beer on girls' tits while yelling "spring break forever, bitches!"
I give it 3 for the storyline but I must say that I actually enjoyed the rest, all and all 6.
waste of time ! bad bad bad
hello guys how una dey
Total waste of time! Dont invest time in this!
This movie horrible bad :D
i liked because of the girls but the movie is confusing
I failed to understand this movie. I'm sorry for that.
Crap, bad scene, bad cam, bad cut, bad stupid story, I give two for the tits.
It has some really stylish scenes and good ideas but it falls rather flat. Maybe that was intentional? I don't really care. It's only thanks to plot armor that girls dressed in bikinis holding guns like a toys get to shoot down some gangsters including Gucci Mane. Also the ATL twins are still creepy.
Not completely believable. More like a rap music video.
