"A.S.C. is Funny and Shows A True Passion For Art"

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2006
Review: "Art School Confidential" is a really good movie in that it shows great passion for art. Now, it may be a comedy but I commend it for really showing how many times art.. and I mean true art goes unappreciated.

Now, let me first state that...

ART SCHOOL CONFIDENTIAL: "Jerome, You Could Be Another *Eugenio de Arnal!!"

Date of Review:  May 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Terry Zwigoff's second Daniel Clowes collaboration: a satire of the Art World, with 1950's vibes. Neither so subtle as GHOST WORLD, nor so outrageous as BAD SANTA, but amusing.
Review: So you want to become a great WRITER?

So you want to become a renowned COMPOSER?

So you want to become an admired FILM MAKER?

The answer is as easy as one, two, three . . . .

First, you need drive, ambition...

I Think Your Film is Too... Pretentious... Oh Shut Up Hack!

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: Art School Confidential is a Witty, Hilarious Satire on the Art World by Terry Zwigoff & Co.
Review:
Known for his eccentric films like the 1994 documentary Crumb and 2001's bleak comedy Ghost World, Terry Zwigoff was hailed as a director who gave voice to the outsiders. While his first two films were widely acclaimed and were modest success...

Artistic Licentiousness

Date of Review:  Sep 27, 2009
The Bottom Line: as a comic novel adaptation, the film falls flat without a real identifiable need in the lead character
Review: Art School Confidential is a dead pan look at a young artist who makes his way through Art College and all the learning experiences he must endure.  Tinged with wry humor about art school and loaded with assorted stereotypes the movie has a few...

Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Strangler

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Four years and $60K worth of art education condensed into 102 fun filled minutes. Watch it and save money.
Review: "I would say that art school was to me what Vietnam was for Oliver Stone..." -Daniel Clowes, Screenplay

**Minor Spoilers Ahead*

Having attended and dropped out of art school myself, the
title of this movie was both repellent...

Confidential is full of Cliche's.

Date of Review:  May 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you have been to art school, and like dark satire, then you should see this movie.The events aren't really probable, but worth the watch.
Review: This review contains big plot spoilers, so if that will bother you, please stop reading now.
Inadvertantly spoiling movies for people isn't my thing.

Jerome is a tortured artist of a sort. He has never had a girlfriend, his only...

Must see for art school graduates!

Date of Review:  Aug 31, 2008
The Bottom Line: A must see for artists or graduates of an art college! Funny and thought provoking.
Review: This movie is about Jerome Platz (Max Minghella) and his desire to become the most famous artist of the 21st century. The movie opens with his childhood and adolescense, focusing on how he doesn't fit in, but excells in art. He decides to attend...
