Critics Consensus: Spawn is an overbearing, over-violent film that adds little to the comic book adaptation genre.

Rob's Movie Vault

Rob Gonsalves

If it’s meant to snare the uninitiated, I must say it failed to hook me.

Unfortunately, as a product of the '90s, the film relies heavily on dated, primitive, terribly unconvincing computer graphics.

I would say I feel bad for a cast that's clearly above this material, but at least they got paid for it; I ended up in the red.

Violent '90s apocalyptic horror tale is dreadful.

Ends up feeling like every other mid-budget comic book movie from the second half of the 1990s, and that was a uniquely dispiriting moment for such things.
