Genre: Action Fantasy Thriller, contains strong horror violence & strong language
Cert: 18 cert
Story: One of the most popular independent comic books of its decade was transformed into this dark, bloody adventure intended to launch a profitable superhero franchise. Michael Jai White stars as Al Simmons, a corrupt assassin betrayed and murdered by his evil government supervisor, Jason Wynn (Martin Sheen). Sent to Hell, Simmons is offered a chance to return to the earthly plane if he will become a "Hellspawn" ("Spawn" for short), one of many super-powered creatures assigned to encourage living souls along the path to damnation. Simmons hastily agrees to this deal and becomes a twisted, scarred version of his former self, living in a dingy alleyway, with no hope of regaining his life, as several years have passed and his wife Wanda (Theresa Randle) has married his best friend, Terry Fitzgerald (D.B. Sweeney). Despite the best efforts of his mentor, a demonic clown (John Leguizamo), Spawn performs mostly heroic acts, though he is not above seeking revenge on Wynn. Despite the film's middling box office take, plans for a sequel were announced. The same summer that Spawn was released, the comic was also the basis of a well-received cable TV series.
Likes : i love this film,its dark,violet,special effects are awesome for this type of film,the storyline is very good,Ive seen a lot of Micheal jai white films he an amazing marshal artist seeing him play spawn was a fitting role for him he suited it down to a tee, the story line of al simmons a solider working for a corrupted special government office was betrayed & sent to hell to lend the devils army,but kept his humanity through the love he had for his wife wanda played by theresa randle, the visual effect were just awesome special spawn suit of armour that with the cape he can use to blend in to anything he mind can control,it such a dark story line but an awesome storyline at that,john leguizamo star of romeo & juliet, super mario bros ,the pest & land of the dead was so funny playing the demon clown violator special when he dose he pom pom dance song spawny spawny he are man & he one liners like you've been violated girly man & every time a demon farts an angel loss's it wings.Ive seen john leguizamo play a lot of parts in film but this was he best performance by far he got that comical sense of humour in him which made he a good fit for the clown but i bet it was hard walking around like he had to do this role.Martin Sheen laying the evil criminal that sent al simmons to hell was very good playing this role,Melinda Clarke plays Melinda Clarke which there is just something about her that make her sexy & dangerous at the same time in this role,Miko Hughes plays the little boy zack who befriend spawn.this film is worth watching.Ive also seen the animated series on spawn very bloody/dark & violent as well.
Dislikes : The Devil Malebolgia the special effect could of been a little bit better more menacing
Overall : if you like dark films,dark storyline,voilents & fantasy this is one film not to miss.
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars for entertainment, 8 out of 10 for storyline & horror theme
