About this movie

From visionary director Harmony Korine comes a bold new vision of the seasonal American ritual known as spring break — the bacchanalia of bikinis, beach parties and beer bongs that attracts hordes of college students each year. Brit (Ashley Benson), Faith (Selena Gomez), Candy (Vanessa Hudgens) and Cotty (Rachel Korine) are best friends anxious to cut loose on their own spring break adventure, but they lack sufficient funds. After holding up a restaurant for quick cash, the girls head to the shore in a stolen car for what they discover is the party of a lifetime. They're thrown in jail — but quickly bailed out by Alien (James Franco), a local rapper, drug pusher and arms dealer who lures them into a criminal underbelly that's as lurid as it is liberating for a close-knit gang of girlfriends who are still figuring out their path. With a hallucinatory musical score by Cliff Martinez (DRIVE) and Skrillex, SPRING BREAKERS is an electrifying pop poem to girls gone wild. Harmony Korine unleashes a ferocious, feverish and furiously alive youth quake examining the sensory overload of a new generation of restless youth.

K well i watched it all the way thru and one thing that annoyed me more than anything is that guys voice saying "spring break fo eva" over and effin over. The color schemes threw me off a bit as well. I get the point of the movie but I think they should have played it out a bit more in certain areas and less in others. The cast was alright didnt really bother me much. I think they should have made this film a little more real life. Btw the cover of the movie does NOT portray anything that the movie is about

This is from Harmonie Korine, the guy who brought us kids which was a look at teen sexuality and aids. Definitely not for the faint of heart. This film can be best described as a cross between "Natural Born Killers" and "Girls Gone Wild" drenched in hedonistic nhilism. Again Mr. Korine takes us into current, modern day youth culture. If you were expecting some Judd Apatow-esque raunchy feature film, you've got another thing coming. Please do your research people before you see something like this.
