Time Out -
That rarest of art documentaries, one that actually leaves viewers with a better sense of the gifted versus the phony.

|
|
Entertainment Weekly -
An exhilarating hall-of-mirrors look at what happens when global art fame turns anonymous, artists become objects, fans turn into artists, and the whole what's-sincere-and-what's-a-sham spectacle is more fun than art was ever supposed to be.

Los Angeles Times -
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.

The A.V. Club -
A documentary that doubles as a comic thriller, and it’s as entertaining as it is thought-provoking.

The Hollywood Reporter -
Hugely entertaining documentary challenges conventional concepts of legitimate art and the creative process.
