" spawn " may be somewhat of an older film .
in fact it will probably be on video before anyone who has n't seen it will finally get to see it ( that is , if they see it ) .
but i managed to catch it before it made it 's way out of theaters and into the world of rentals
and , god forbid , video cassette purchasing .
it was n't the worst film of year by any means .
it is n't even on the top 5 of the worst films of the year .
but it did manage to top the bottom five of the bottom ten , which , in simpler terms , means it comes in at number 6 on my " worst of 1997 " list .
the only reason it does n't come in lower is thanks to the special effects , which might actually have been some of the best of the year .
performances , however , were either wooden or , for the most part , unforgivingly campy .
in fact , this film shows no signs of attempting to avoid campiness !
even the editing seemed to boast a campy quality .
i do n't know how to explain that one ; it was n't exactly choppy , but something about it seemed . . .
well , annoyingly unprofessional .
john leguizamo almost makes it as clown , but not quite .
he is the only character who provides the audience with any laughs that can honestly be called intentional .
but the main problem i found with " spawn " , as with most films that wind up on my " worst of " lists , is that it was just plain boring
.
i would n't even say there was a climax to the film .
sure , it had the big battle scene at the end , but the only excitement felt
was that the movie might be nearing a conclusion .
never too soon , the movie did conclude in a very simple , disappointing way .
even though it 's one of the shorter movies i 've seen this year , it 's one that i would definitely not want to subject myself to sitting thru again .
like i said , the special effects are the only reason that this film should have any sense of pride , no matter how small .
i was impressed with the opening sequence , so long as i did n't allow the melodramatic voice - over and lobotomizing editing
to get to me .
and batman has nothing on the spectacular visuals spawn 's outfit created .
but even the effects got tiresome during the final scenes , which looked quite a bit like a modern video game .
who knows if " spawn : the video game " was n't part of the plan from the beginning ?
keeping in mind that the film was based on a comic book makes it somewhat more approachable , and in a very small amount , makes up for the cheeziness of it all .
but none of this movie 's saving graces can it make it something
i 'd recommend seeing , no matter what the price of admission .
this movie is definitely not for young children , which should n't really be a problem seeing as how only teenagers , if anyone , would likely find it appealing .
if you really want to catch a movie , there are many better ones out there ,
no matter what your tastes might be !
trust me !
" spawn
" has very little to offer even the most avid moviegoers !
