art school confidential be a simply terrible movie build from a script that need dozen of rewrite before it would have be coherent . how clowes go from create such a lovely screenplay a ghostworld to churn out this desperate schlock be beyond me and but it clear that something go terribly wrong in this and his second collaboration with director terry zwigoff . it apparent that they need to rag on art and understandably and but the two must have be very hard press for a project to attempt this . watch it and i be embarrass for them . the cast be waste . angelica huston and far and away the most talented actress in the film and be in all of two scene . why be she even in this movie . malkovich performance a professor sandiford be entertain enough and but the character be totally inconsistent . the main character and jerome and play by max minghella and be hopelessly naive and unlikable . minghella try his hardest and but i want more to see jerome get slap than to see him succeed . after ogle love interest and sophia myles and from across the room and then briefly meet her and jerome start call her his girlfriend . huh . where do this kid come from . there be myriad unbelievable and sometimes cliché development like this which only confuse the viewer . what be the intent . do they set out to make a dark comedy and a farce and or what . the prat fall and attempt at slap stick negate any value it might have have a commentary on the art world . the plot be labor and full of hole and the comedy be lame at best and and the so called twist at the end be a cheap trick which bundle up dozen of loose and frayed end . not since crash have a movie so enrage me .
