"Spring Breakers" is the next "Fight Club"?

I completely dismissed this film and had no thoughts of it.

Then I read this review on CHUD:

They praised this shite out of it. I looked at RT and it is being compared to Fight Club (basically its a very divisive film), a dark comedy on shrooms...and a scathing critique of today's youth culture.

I really had no idea. I thought this was just some comedy for the idiot kids of today, but apparently it is fairly scathing. And the Director is Harmony Korine, who also made KIDS and Gummo.

I guess I'll have to see this now. Also, lots of tits apparently.

When I saw Korine and Franco were making a movie together I was all-in. This movie will take a big swing I bet.

Exactly. It's a misleading trailer. Some people saw the Drive trailer and thought it was an action movie like Fast & Furious.

Apologies.

I'm still committed to not watching it, though.

I don't see the Fight Club connection/resonance.

Reads and appears like more a Donkey Punch metaphor.

Kids is the only film I've seen that he's been involved with. Can't say I enjoyed it much but his script gave it a realistic feel.

I'm definitely looking forward to Spring Breakers now that it sounds like there's more to it than T&A.

You haven't lived until you've seen Gummo.
