Great atmosphere, style, actors and music but because of the writing, the characters...bad dialogue and poor development - the story, or rather lack of it... is weak, un-engaging and almost boring.

After a week or two, I know I won't even remember it. Such a shame because it looks really cool. Could have been so good.

OH! And Emile Hirsch, in a movie about art and artists you LAZY 'artist'!!! You couldn't even shave your head for art's sake!? Or should we blame the make-up department, because that bald-cap he wears toward the end is so APPALLING! NO ONE ON EARTH's head looks like that when shaved. Just a polished flawlessly smooth shiny plastic looking dome... OMG it was so awful! - Completely destroyed the whole ending of the film! It was so glaring that it stood out so much as if you could suddenly see all the green screens or the set around the scene or the boom mics! YUCK!

Very disappointed.

I usually do not believe people that rates movies 1 or 2. I just believe they did not like the movie and as a result they give a 1. This time I am the one giving one star. Do not believe people that rate this movie 8-9-10. There is absolutely no chance that a real human being watched this movie and thought it deserved a 10. There are some great actors and there are some nice visuals but that is it. Midway through the movie you realize there is no story what so ever. I thought this looked good at first but it is the worst movie I have seen in a very long time. Do not waste your time on this.

Another vapid, very low budget drama that's anything but dramatic. Meyers stumbles his way through a role that gives him little to do, playing an art forger juggling romance with underworld contacts. A bloated Michael Madsen grabs the cheque and who can blame him in a production this messy.
