'Spring Breakers' plays like an extended party music video at first, but the atmosphere slowly dissolves into darker territory. What follows are the exploits of four young college girls as they delve into destructive behavior. The film is mostly concerned with visuals and maintains it's flashy music video look and editing through the entire running time. However, it's intentions contain some merit, because the girls face serious consequences for their actions and are forced to consider a change in lifestyle. My only gripes are the film's overall style, the repeating voice-over that happens often, and the fact that it all boils down to sex, money, drugs and guns. These things gave me a feeling of detachment.
