Movie Reviews of Downtown 81
Movie Review: a time and a place
Summary: 4 Stars
important film for documenting a great time and place. the music scenes make it worthwhile as well as getting to see basquiat in action and the extras are pretty good as well.Movie Review: It was Ok i think
Summary: 2 Stars
pretty raw outlook in the life of Basquiat
I'm an avid fan so i have no regrets having this.
Movie Review: An Oddity
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought the movie was disjointed, it lacked subject matter. Very odd.Movie Review: Hard to watch...
Summary: 1 Stars
I am also a fan of Basquiat and of Schnabel's movie.
I loved watching the taped interviews of Basquiat available at MOCA-LA during the last Basquiat exhibiit. (I believe they're available on YOU-TUBE now.)
I found "Downtown 81" extremely painful to watch as I felt Basquiat was being exploited by this film maker. For me, he was "produced and directed" and painfully not himself.
Movie Review: Got. To. BE. Kidding.
Summary: 1 Stars
OK, Basquiat, at age 19- see the actual person. PERIOD(so wonderfully played by Wright in movie "Basquiat")What a major trainwreck of film this is.Should have stayed where it was buried. Sorry, won't waste my time to list all the many, very many reasons, already wasted my money.
