Review of Spring

Spring (I) (2014)
3/10
Had Potential
17 August 2015
Warning: Spoilers
The crux of the story had potential, but the science of renewing life for thousands of life cycles was really weak (e.g. sex, injections, rabbit kills, ancient incantations). The script had a poor flow, both explanations as to what is going on as well as the subsequent encounters between the two leads. Our female lead, Nadia Hilker, metamorphosing into a variety of ancient evolutionary forms had a good CGI effect, but was more just laughable scary. Also, not believable, was the life story behind the second lead character, American, Lou Pucci, and how he's adrift in Italy where events take place. The farm scenes, where he's employed, seemed pointless and the connection to the death of the farmer's wife was, again, seemed to be an afterthought injection. Finally, the ending and alternate ending seemed too sweetly predictable - not creative.
