Spawn


Teenager movie based on a comic-book. Our hero goes to hell, where is he promptly given some special powers and special duties. He returns to earth as an invincible assassin. Expert lots of visual effects (to the point that they distract), and not much of a story-line or dialogue.

Action, Thriller

Visitor Comments
Shaun Myburg: I am lucky enough to have this film on DVD, so I probably won't go see it on the big screen. I do however encourage everyone to go see this film, if not for the remarkable special effects, then for John Leguizamo's performance as clown. For fans of the comic it shouldn't dissapoint. A great little sci-fi/horror... despite what the critics say.

Rory Wingham: I think that it can be better.

Dimitrios Zacharopoulos: Effects, Unbelieveable!

Ruan Barnard: The effects were good, but the storyline is all messed up in comparison with the comic book.

Bruce Humphrey: I hope you are all taking of what your Uncle Shaun says - this strange ''comic book'' super action hero movie (reminds me somewhat of the Batman movies) has some of the most fantastic special effects that I have ever seen on film!! Go and enjoy it if you like this kind of movie as much as I do.

Paul van der Westhuizen: Great FX! I did not appreciate the Armageddon stuff and the hell! Books were better.

Stella Kelani: Too boring for me.

Rory Stewart: It had an alright cast.
