There may be spoilers the rest of the review
Verdict: Bravely Different
Story: Spring starts with Evan (Pucci) carrying for his seriously ill mother at their home as he witnesses his mother’s last breath. When Evan gets involved in an altercation he beats a man up in making enemies in his own town. Evan decides to pack his bangs on go on holiday to Italy a trip he always planned to take but it just never ended up happening.
Evan finds himself traveling around Italy with two English guys who take him to a beach town where he meets the incredibly beautiful Louise (Hilker). Evan decides to stay in the town alone as he tries to locate the girl for a second visit to try and woo her. While we do see hints of mystery about Louise the two hit it off that night, but she awakens with a secret you couldn’t imagine seeing.
Spring plays out like a romantic film that works nicely but that would have just been boring really but this film ends up throwing the story completely on its head. I can seriously not believe where this ends up going because it teases so many different ideas about what Louise really could be. The final quarter of the film really leaves us surprised but to be fair each chapter of the film feels like a different genre which is amazing to see in a film today. (8/10)
Actor Review
Lou Taylor Pucci: Evan is down on his luck American who mother has just died, he loses his job and decides to pack up his things and head to Italy where he meets a beautiful young lady. As he continues with this romance he learns the truth about her which will leave him shocked. Lou gives a great performance that really shows how far he has come as an actor. (8/10)
Nadia Hilker: Louise is the mysterious lady that Evan meets in the small Italy town, but she is harbouring a secret that has kept her alive for years, giving her the chance to learn the world. Nadia has come from no where to give a great performance. (8/10)
Support Cast: Spring has a supporting cast that is filled with generic character that all come in and interactive for a time with our characters.
Director Review: Justin Benson, Aaron Moorhead – This directing pairing really bought us something special and these two have to be names too look out for in the future. (9/10)
Horror: Spring is billed as a horror but to be fair only one chapter of the film really explores horror side of the story really well. (7/10)
Romance: Spring has a constant feel of a romantic film from the moment Evan and Louise meet without getting all soppy. (9/10)
Sci-Fi: Spring ends up having a sci-fi side to the story once the true identity of Louise is revealed, and it is just wow. (9/10)
Settings: Spring uses te beautiful settings of Italy for most of the film showing how picturesque the world really is. (10/10)
Special Effects: Spring uses a mix of great effects to create the real image of Louise but I did notice one set looked too CGI for my liking, but that is being picky. (8/10)
Suggestion: Spring is an absolutely must watch for all horror fans because it will leave you shocked. (Watch)
