Nasher 29 Posted April 9, 2012 Spun is one of the worst and most childish movies I've ever seen. As per usual you can tell a music video directors early movies as they have inexplicably good actors and try far too hard to make a terrible plot interesting with visual tricks. And the cast is amazing: Jason Schwartzman, John Leguizamo, Mena Suvari, Patrick Fugit, Brittany Murphy, Mickey Rourke, Peter Stormare, Deborah Harry, Eric Roberts, how or why they agreed can only be justified by financial motivation and the flick was a massive bomb. Â Watching Spun is like watching a dog with Tourette-rabies. Every drug hit is accompanied by hyperactive camerawork and pupils flaring and occasionally grotesque animation. Then there gratuitous nudity inane dialogue and a plot that goes nowhere. Things happen for little to no reason and seemingly to just get to the next stupidly scripted scene. Â Worst of all most of the story and visual cues are ripped off from Requiem for a Dream in the most unashamed fashion. Share this post Link to post
