Bomb it: The Movie

            


This is a documentary film on the life of graffiti, right up to modern day. standing at 1 hour 33 minutes I found this film was hard to follow at first, i wasn't too fond of the gangster taggers that dominated the first quarter. I mostly don't agree with what they say but they are also too aggressive as far as i'm concerned.

The rest of the film though presents great views and amazing pieces from every corner of the world. this includes famous artists such as Os Gemeos, Pez and Blek le Rat.

This doesn't just talk about the good points of graffiti, it also tells us the dark side of graffiti , the gang culture, the crime and even the deaths caused by graffiti.

I found this film to be a high quality, informative and certainly worth a watch to anyone interested in finding out more about graffiti.
