Spawn Ratings & Reviews
- 匚卂尺ㄥFebruary 23, 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.
- AngusMcNutzDecember 23, 2024Mostly nostalgic enjoyment for me but, objectively, this movie has all the subtlety and nuance of an ice-cold Four Loko
- jackmeatDecember 22, 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.
