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!

lol sorry, i have to rant for a minute. you're looking waaay to into this movie. the director, harmony korine, has said multiple times there is no plot in this movie. it's more like a liquid narrative where time is more free, it can jump forwards and backwards. it's supposed to mimic a drug experience in a way. it's more more musical and experimental than a traditional movie. i'm assuming you were expecting to see a generic spring break movie and were not open to something totally different. so now knowing this, you should go back and watch it and i guarantee you'll have a different opinion about it. okay bye.

@nigelj Sorry but you are clearly not used to truly unique cinema if you are commenting on plot holes etc in fucking Spring Breakers. This is more an experience than a film, a trip.
