Equestria Girls: Spring Breakdown ranking · 9:45pm Mar 30th, 2019

0/10 - AWFUL (unsalvageable, nothing to be gained from watching it, never should have been made, wouldn't recommend to anyone, completely butchers an important subject/teaches a horrible and downright toxic moral)
1/10 - HORRIBLE/BORING (tedious to sit through, hurts to watch it, a bore, no reason to watch it, whatever positive things about it are tiny and not enough to save it)
2/10 - VERY BAD (slightly less terrible, maybe it had that one character you liked or one/two jokes you laughed at that kept it from being a 1 but still very painful)
3/10 - BAD (the kind of bad where you're checking your watch over and over to see how much time is left before it finally finishes)
4/10 - MEDIOCRE (not awful but not really that good either)
5/10 - EH (average, didn't love it or hate it but you feel like you could've done something better with your time)
6/10 - DECENT (the first positive rating on this list, you wouldn't watch it again but you are glad you saw it once)
7/10 - GOOD (enjoyable enough that you'd maybe watch it again in future, had some noteworthy flaws but is overall a worthwhile sit-through you'd recommend to someone)
8/10 - GREAT (a solid, enjoyable episode, very entertaining)
9/10 - EXCELLENT (very engaging, awesome, you really recommend it to anyone)
10/10 - MASTERPIECE (extremely engaging, teaches a valuable moral perfectly, definite must-see for anyone)

Equestria Girls: Spring Breakdown DECENT

On one hand, Rainbow's antics got on my nerves slightly and the ending to the conflict was a little abrupt. Not to mention the first half of the special was sooooo slow. Fortunately though, there were enough good jokes that kept the first half from being a complete drag. And the story got more interesting once the second half came around with Sunset, Rainbow and Sci-Twi getting stuck on that island, getting transported to Equestria, the Storm King's magic brewing and the ship sinking. I just wish we could've gotten to that sooner rather than over halfway through. But on the flip side, there was no villain clone of Juniper, Wallflower or Vignette for a change so that's always a positive. I probably wouldn't watch it again but I am glad I watched it.

Mainly, I'm really happy that this special has no true villain. After several of the recent villains in this series or FiM, I feel like the creators were very smart to not have yet another "I'm bad but please feel sorry for me" type.

I found this Special a relief after watching Rollercoaster Of Friendship.

I think we all feel that way.

This would have worked better if it was longer (the movie). That would have made it a lot less abrupt; the problem is solved by dropping a previously-undiscussed object into the narrative that just fixes things.
