    what follows could be considered a spoiler i guess, but only about how the movie is set up. if you know anything at all about the LA grafitti explosion in 2006 it's all old news.

    it wasn't really about banksy at all. there were montages of stuff we've seen posted here over the years, and he does some narration, but it was mostly about thierry guetta, the crazy frenchman who shot all the footage. he followed around his cousin space invader, fairey, buffmonster, and a host of other graffiti greats. it follows his path as annoying assistant/groupie to annoying gallery artist under the name of "mr brainwash".

    probably one of the best docs of its kind, really gives a glimpse into how it's all done and gives some insights about the movement and its players from the players themselves.

    • i agree, guetta gets super annoying as mbw.sea_sea
    • so are they using the BANKSY title just to get people to show up?Douglas
    • it's an interesting movie with or without him, but he certainly lends pedigreescarabin
    • 2006? haSeriousFreelancing
