Too much of everything

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Blistering performances.

Hats off the 3D Motion Graphic artist who created that gorgeous transformation shot with the world renowned artist, DAIM (Mirko Reisser). DAIM is hands down the BEST graffiti style typographical painter showing the highest level skill that is unmatched by anyone in the graffiti scene.My mind was blown when I saw DAIM's live action painted style shapes digitally mutate into what would be that abstract shape's natural progression into becoming a definable letter style. With the complexity of DAIM's letter style, I am very impressed with the 3D Motion Graphic artist who animated that scene.Great film!

I was pretty surprised that I just happened to find this movie at Hastings & had never heard of it & then realized it is a really legit history of Graffiti (Much like the classics Style Wars & Wild Style from the 80's). I was thrilled to see some interviews with actual legends, the founding fathers of Graff such as Taki 183 & Cornbread! It was really cool to see tagging spread from NYC and go global moving up from bubble & block letters to Wild Style and then giving rise to pieces, murals and the birth of the phenomenon of street art. I also liked the balance in this docudrama, interviews with the police and anti-graffiti advocates right along with the most gutsy & outspoken writers. I really hope this documentary does a lot to reveal the absolute beauty of street art but also discourage straight up vandalism and gang related tagging that is just ugly.

Bomb It! is an electrifying ride into the world of graffiti told by both its purveyors and opponents. Graffiti is the largest artistic cultural movement in history and this documentary tells the story from the artists perspectives. It poses the question: "What is public space, and who owns it?" They share their thoughts about what the culture means to them, where/why it started, what it's become, and where it's going. We are thrust into the chaotic often times dangerous world of writers/artists who risk their lives and freedom daily, whether it be to "get up," gain fame, fortune, or simply announce to the world they they exist and have a voice. Bomb it has assembled a veritable who's who of graffiti artists from around the world weaving a throughly entertaining story about individual expression, rebellion, art, cultural/social awareness, poverty, and corporate greed. Filled with stunning art and music from around the globe, Bomb It! is a visual and sonic explosion which aims to bring down the social and class boundaries that separate us all. Splendid.

First a long passage in New York, the first graffiti, the tags, the pieces (or however it is correctly named), the gangs, the people, the evolution. Paris, an artist, the groups in the streets, what they feel. Amsterdam, Barcelona, Hamburg, London, Berlin, São Paulo, Tokyo, Los Angeles. How to express yourself, how you evolved, what people think, why they do it, how does it fit around you. I advise you to see it with your eyes really open because there are some really funny moments that just pass by most of the people, like when some really common big advertisements show up in the streets. I found the documentary really interesting in general.
