Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 10/10 by Owen Gleiberman"Andy Warhol" makes you see that beneath the gargoyle hipster mask, he filled that emptiness with an art of transcendent sincerity.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Stephen HoldenThe movie is an entirely absorbing, occasionally revelatory portrait of a brilliant talent driven to greatness by an inner chorus of demons and angels.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Ed HalterThe result is an intellectual history of Warhol, bucking the trend toward the star-studded VH1-ization of biodocs and constructed with a mission to dispel the artist's own self-created image as high-fashion hobnobber in favor of a more profound depiction. Burns argues for a cogitating, agitating Warhol: deep thinker, cultural barometer, and world changer.
Salon.com - 9/10 by Andrew O'HehirBurns has accomplished something both remarkable and reassuring. Remarkable because this is a compelling film, blending astonishing historical images with long-winded talking-head interviews, in vintage Burnsian style, and reassuring for almost the same reason.
Variety - 8/10 by Phil GalloArt aficionados the world over will want to catch the pic, which PBS airs later this month; given the impact Warhol had on the world, it's a must for culture vultures.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanConsistently compelling and required viewing for anyone remotely interested in pop culture.
TV Guide - 8/10 by Ken FoxBurns devotes the bulk of the film to Warhol's '60s work, giving serious attention to the radical, often underacknowledged silent films he shot with the participation of the drag queens, speed freaks and high-society types who populated the Factory.
Wall Street Journal - 8/10 by Nancy DeWolf SmithWhat's so mesmerizing about this film is the sight, in an endless rush of color and images, of so much of his work in one place, including pieces we don't often see.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Ray RichmondWhile there is invariably repetition and drag in [the film], it also bursts with compelling detail and extraordinary insight into an enigmatic figure about whom we come away more or less enlightened.
Newsday - 6/10 by Gene SeymourTo say that this may well be the best biographical film we may ever get about its subject does not in any way diminish the achievement of documentary maker Ric Burns.
