Film Review: Exit Through the Gift Shop
One of the most interesting films I've seen in a while that kept me at the edge of my seat in laughter and amusement. The film is not entirely based on the illusive
Banksy just to say. He does have a few clandestine like comments throughout the film which is really amazing. Shepard
Fairey is seen much in the film, scenes of him at the print shop and posting up his art at night in some of the most daring spots. Other artists are captured on the camera while on their night ventures. There's even an amusing scene at Disneyland. I couldn't help laugh out loud during much of the film with it's quirkiness and wit. I honestly don't want to say too much on the film cause I just feel that you just need to watch it to understand. Another surprise would be the film music is by Geoff Barrow, the man behind
Portishead.
Banksy is from Bristol and so is
Portishead, makes sense. I highly
recommend to watch this film or add it to your
DVD collection. This made in my
top list of favorite films that I would watch over and over.
