Maybe the execution isn't everyone's style, but the film's point is undeniable. This movie is a very intelligent social commentary under a pink veil, and it is absolutely no accident. One group gets to go home like nothing ever happened, one group gets massacred and it's somehow okay.

In the end, one group of people gets to come into this town, party it up and take part in all kinds of illegal and immoral activity with absolutely no consequences at the expense of another group. No one bats an eye at the fact that when the main characters encounter a group of black individuals - for the first time in the film - hanging out and partying, it's suddenly scary and uncomfortable (but when white people go crazy and borderline abusive while partying, it isn't just fine, but expected and a positive thing). I don't mean to get all preachy with the feminist talk, but these are the points the film is making, like it or not. It means a lot when no one bats an eye at the film's depiction of what is expected of women on spring break - women are simply expected to get naked and make out with each other for other men's entertainment. People hate on this movie and praise it for its nudity or violence, but the point is missed. It's just kinda ironic to me that the majority audience reaction is essentially exactly what the film is satirizing. Pay attention to just how similar both groups are, and yet how differently one group is perceived by the characters.Д®dit: This post is getting a little attention, so I figure I'll add a couple thoughts. Pay attention to how black and white people are presented and how the carefree spring break partying is for one group at the expense of another. Pay attention to how the entire mood of the film changes the INSTANT a black person is introduced. This movie was made the way it is very much so intentionally, from the shallow characters and dream-like cinematography to the religious allegories and racial commentary. I bring this up because a lot of people are questioning if we are 'looking too deep' into this movie. First of all, if you pay attention to the first scene in the classroom, the professor is giving a lecture on deconstructionism. It's amazing to me how many people miss the race commentary in this movie.
