Saturday Movies: Spring Breakers (2013)

I have to say that while I didn't love this movie, I was surprised by how much better it was than I thought it would be. This is actually a good movie, but lacks a lot of substance needed to make an audience want to see it. Within the thirty minutes there is so much working against the movie, and because of a poor casting person the cast isn't that impressive. I hate to say it, but the girls were really annoying, and I sadly can't say they ever cross the barrier into being likable. Now what makes this movie really good, and a lot more enjoyable is James Franco in one of his stand out performances of 2013. The guy thankfully only waits 35 minutes or so to appear, and the movie instantly takes a positive turn.

Summary: Faith, Candy, Brit, and Cotty all want to go on spring break, and they are tired of missing the fun since they have no money. After three of the girls take drastic action to make spring break happen they find themselves having the time of their lives on spring break. That is until they get arrested, but Alien, a gangster, bails them out, and the girls begin to get involved in his world. Naturally, for him bailing them out they feel inclined to do some criminal work for pay back.
