- ርልዪረ23 février 2025A favorite as a kid and still the best superhero I think. His suit/cape and all its powers are the coolest of all heros by far. When he first changes into the spawn and you see the suit was so awesome when I first watched it. Michael jai white is the man and one the best martial artists out there even though there isn't much in this film. Plus John Leguizamo as the clown or "violator" is hilarious. I've seen this movie a bunch of times but I just watched it again and it's still dope as hell. Good story line. CGI and special effects really good for the time it was made. Some people say the devil character "Malebolgia" looks whack but it's more or less how it was in the comics but the whole movie is worth the watch for sure. I'll take Spawn over the Avengers, Batman and any superhero any day.
- PhysicalMedia4Life4 août 2026Yes the 1997 Spawn movie is very flawed and the effects haven't aged well, most notably the effects on The Devil Malebolgia! However this is a very fun & entertaining movie, that has very good performances from the entire cast. Michael Jai White was a brilliant Spawn I thought. And John Leguizamo was just as awesome as the clown/violator spawns nemesis, if anything he steals the show you could argue. But I do absolutely love Michael Jai Whites potrayal of Spawn though. It has very cool action for the time and I still enjoy it now, all these years later. Martin Sheen was also great. It's also paced fairly well, its not as bad as its reputation says it is. I will hold my hands up ✋️✋️ and admit, that I do have a lot of bias nostalgia for this film. I grew up watching it and I still have the VHS 📼 tape of it to this day. Probably if I didn't have those ties to it, I'd be a lot harsher on it. I see the flaws a 💯 and the special effects as I mentioned are awful now in 2026. But it does have its moments and good qualities about it as well. Of course the animated series is much better that goes without saying than this adaptation. At the same time though I do think that, this a very watchable, passable & digestible film, despite its issues. My Personal Rating for Spawn 1997 is a 6/10
- Streetter29 juin 2026This 5 Star Rating is for the Soundtrack, not the Movie. Movie is a 2.5 Star
- Ned Peyroux17 février 2026It would have been a lot better if Todd McFarlane hadn’t spent the money on a baseball instead of honing his craft.
- Richard19 décembre 2025First saw this one on an import DVD at a friend’s place, and that already gave it a certain “forbidden fruit” vibe. Later picked up my own DVD… only to discover the French version had censored the killing, which somehow made the whole thing feel even more chaotic than intended. I’ve got the comics, so I know how dark and stylish Spawn should be and the movie tries, it really does. But the CGI was just too early in its evolution, wobbling somewhere between ambitious and “oh no, please stop moving.” Still, there’s something charming about how hard it swings for the fences. Good movie at its core, just trapped in the technology of its time.
- Kyle Bianchi9 novembre 2025Peak 90s action, peak 90s CGI, peak Spawn. I love Michael Jai White as Spawn just as much as I loved Keith David voicing him in the cartoon, but John Leguizamo as The Clown is top tier. Overall a solid, fun movie. We really deserve another.
- jackmeat22 décembre 2024My quick rating - 5,1/10. After being murdered by corrupt colleagues in a covert government agency, Al Simmons makes a pact with the devil to be resurrected to see his beloved wife Wanda. In exchange for his return to Earth, Simmons agrees to lead Hell's Army in the destruction of mankind. Back then, I was really into the comic. Well, I read it, didn't buy toys or anything but I did rush to the theater to see it. I was VERY disappointed then. This may be the second time I have seen it. From what I thought then I think now I am a bit more subjective in my rating. It still does the story no justice and I really am not sure why Leguizamo had such a flash of popularity there but aside from his nonsense character, Jai White was a solid Spawn and the movie does deliver some mindless action. But with now-dated effects, the movie also doesn't stand the tests of time too well. Maybe with a better story, it might have. Oh well, still part of the collection.
- marlon11167 octobre 2025Loved it.
- tokethaninja5 août 2025Would have benefitted from "less is more" mentality. The CG hell scenes look awful and are noticeably worse quality than the suit or the monster, which are mostly practical. This distracts from a decent story. Leguizamo is campy is hell but unfortunately he ends up being the most iconic part of this movie.
- AngusMcNutz23 décembre 2024Mostly nostalgic enjoyment for me but, objectively, this movie has all the subtlety and nuance of an ice-cold Four Loko
