Movie Reviews of Stolen
Movie Review: Interesting if you love art & museums
Summary: 4 Stars
Good look at trying to find stolen art. The art investigator himself is really the best part of the story. Would only recommend if you have serious interest in stolen art & their museums.Movie Review: Fascinating topic made imminently boring.
Summary: 1 Stars
Although the Gardner art theft is a fascinating topic, this documentary is imminently boring. This film has an odd, depressing pace with an equally depressing soundtrack. Much footage is shot with a shaky, handheld, video camera and the film is poorly edited. It smacks of an amateurish documentary - a film student's first attempt at his craft - with every cheap film transition and filter in the editing software trotted out to try to add interest via special effects because the film itself is so utterly lacking.
The presentation is somewhat disjointed. It doesn't give the viewer a particularly good account of this famous theft, but sort of jumps between interviews with some of the peripheral players in the story. Along with the discomfort imparted by the the shaky camera, bad composition and poor editing, it is often hard to watch in part due to an exceedingly strange looking cast of characters.
If you wish to learn about this famous and still unsolved art theft, you would do better to pass on this movie and to read instead The Gardner Heist: The True Story of the World's Largest Unsolved Art Theft.
