Exit Through the Gift Shop

"A raucously entertaining postmodern survey of guerrilla street art that appears to be one thing, only to fold back on itself and examine would-be filmmaker Thierry Guetta instead."

"Interviewed in identity-concealing shadow, the appealingly wry Banksy freely admits he’s no film pro. But while stylistically the film’s merely adequate, its French subject is as diverting as a motorway pile-up."

"Exit could be a new subgenre: the prankumentary. Audiences, however, would be advised simply to enjoy the film on its face -- even if that face is a carefully contrived mask."

"This teasing faux documentary about Banksy and his fellow street artists is priceless – and hilarious..."

"The widespread speculation that Exit Through the Gift Shop is a hoax only adds to its fascination."

"Subversive, provocative and unexpected, Exit Through the Gift Shop delights in taking you by surprise, starting quietly but ending up in a hall of mirrors as unsettling as anything Lewis Carroll's Alice ever experienced."

"Hugely entertaining documentary challenges conventional concepts of legitimate art and the creative process."

"A provocative and typically post-Postmodern debut from the artist known as Banksy."
