Adrift in a lush, nocturnal urban landscape, Nick is a post-modern urban hero asserting his anarchistic agenda on the endless maze of virgin exterior walls that comprise downtown Seattle and Portland. For writer/director Bolton's lonely "tagger" protagonist, the vast wall surfaces of deserted alleys and trainyards are at once a daunting symbol of capitalist oppression and a texturally rich, seamless tableau ripe for exploitation to amplify his artistic dialectic of anger and ...

Adrift in a lush, nocturnal urban landscape, Nick is a post-modern urban hero asserting his anarchistic agenda on the endless maze of virgin exterior walls that comprise downtown Seattle and Portland. For writer/director Bolton's lonely "tagger" protagonist, the vast wall surfaces of deserted alleys and trainyards are at once a daunting symbol of capitalist oppression and a texturally rich, seamless tableau ripe for exploitation to amplify his artistic dialectic of anger and rebellion. His own virtually anonymous existence seemingly only secondary to the painted surfaces and "rupture the system" manifesto which more poignantly evidence his presence, Nick's prodigious solo graffiti output is interrupted by friendship with another young tagger. Their communication begins as less verbal than a kind of shared graphic tour de force; their enormous collaborative graffiti murals appear to emerge as the unmistakable offspring of their kindred spirit. But eventually their assumptions about one another are disproved as political, emotional and ethical issues arise which cause their relationship to dissolve into the background of urban detritus, and the artists themselves emerge only further atomized and alienated by the experience. Compelling themes, sensitive performances, and luscious visuals define this film which is a revealing immersion into the experiential reality of those daring to make their art in a socially condemned arena. For a film ostensibly focusing on manipulated surfaces, Bolton's cinematic artistry probes deep into the consciousness of the "tagger" and "graffiti artist" sub-culture.

| User ReviewBOO LTHIS MA MOVIE THIS IS SO KOO MANG THEY B TAGGING IT ALL UP |
| User ReviewAlex LRuben Bansie-Snellman is fine as hell. but it basically follows the life of a grafitti artist through oregon and washington. at first it might be a little weird to some people, but give it a chance. one of my favorite movies! |
| User ReviewGabriel GGosh!!! is just cuuute and such a beautiful, is a really compex issue but in another hand is love, just like that, love and graffiti, lol |
| User ReviewPrivate UI thought that the performances were appropriate, although what makes this movie work is, well, the entire movie as a whole. It's as if all the parts of the whole make up something utterly organic. |
| User ReviewAlberto MNormally i would dismiss this type of film as an arty farty snore feast, but the director has created a world with little dialogue and a questioning plot...i found myself questioning characters like no film before, and was awash with conflicting emotions of wanting to both mother Rapture (brilliantly played by Ruben Bonsie Shellman) and marry him!...the films soundtrack and visuals create an impressive doco drama canvas that perplexed me with it's subtle power...living in a city it's all street scape that is familiar yet distant, and Graffiti artist yielded a welcomed insight...after watching this brilliant film i found myself desperately wanting a hug and will always ponder the artist behind graffiti i encounter...please see. |
| User ReviewMichael Gok.. acting could be better, beautiful bombs, and somewhat akward toward the end... |
| User ReviewMegan AAn amazing movie about the underground world of graffiti and his travels to do what he loves. |
| User ReviewFrederick MSeeing Paranoid Park reminds me of this wonderful film I saw a few years back. This is more realistic movie about sk8rs and street kids in the NorthWest. Very low-budget, poor acting and lighting, but despite all that it's a very mesmerizing film, because it captures the isolation and loneliness of Northwest street kids with such honesty. These people feels so real that it's almost like I've met them before. It succeeded not in production value or storytelling, but the mood it captures. Possibly better at that than Paranoid Park, but that's mainly because homeless kids are far more interesting than teenage sk8rs from the 'burbs. |
| User ReviewShaina YSometimes the acting didn't seem realistic or sincere enough which in turn hindered the dialogue. Besides that, the film was still very good. |
| User ReviewMark Hpretty haunting silences in this movie. recommend watchin it at hours before dawn. |
