Review of Spawn (1997) by Steven Y — 31 Mar 2009
After watching the cartoon version I thought that the film would be just as violent. Spawn is ment to be a real badass but in the film there was not enough violence in it. I think that it was toned down to suit a younger audience and this ruined the movie.
The effects were a little OTT but they were well done. I have just bought the movie on DVD so I think that it is enjoyable, but I think that this could have been a real blockbuster, but it looks as though there will be no follow up which is ashame because we have gotten to know the characters and who spawn is and what he is about so this opens up a director to go all out for a spawn 2, if there was better direction and it was true to the comic and the cartoon then spawn 2 would be a smash for sure!
