So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry, for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

It's a mixture of both if I'm honest.

I did dislike Spring Breakers, but I feel as though it's better. The Bling Ring disappointed me. I loved Lost In Translation, and this movie was so unexpectedly bland.

I really loved the characterization in Lost in Translation, but here we barely could focus on any of them.

I honestly don't know if it SB is better tho. My feelings towards the Bling Ring are so mixed, I might have to rewatch it. But as of right now, I currently am completely disappointed and only liked a few things.
I'd definitely say this movie had stronger Social Commentary. They tried with SB, and it didn't seem to connect IMO. I will say that.
The acting in this vs. SB is debatable. I'd say this had stronger performances. SB's was just a horribly cast film. I HATED the casting choices, and the film could've been improved had there been others to play the girls. James Franco was alright, but he's been better. His character was a bit silly as well.

Both had impressive cinematography, but SB's usage of colors made it FAR superior.

As for the script, I'm not sure which film had the better one...Maybe The Bling Ring is the superior film now that I'm breaking things down... :S

*NOTE*: Sorry for the contradictory thoughts, because I've edited this post like 5+ times, adding more of my thoughts.

I'm sorry, but this movie was a snooze fest. Emma and Taissa were the only saving graces, and they weren't even in the movie that much. The cinematography was amazing, and so was the music, but I agree with Curtis from a few pages back:

Definitely not the best Sofia Coppola film.

The music was the best part. It added so much to the movie, visual and feel wise.

NGL, I did like this movie more than Spring Breakers, though. I actually finished this movie, unlike SB...
