The film's brisk pace is a bit wearing once the one-hour mark is passed, but the high energy and intelligence is quite charismatic over all.

Rated: 3/4

As a piece of art, it can seem a bit simplistic. The film fails to raise interesting new questions or delve deeply into unexplored territory.

Blurred Lines benefits of a visually enthralling subject and delivers an agreeable experience, if a notch sterile.

Rated: 3.5/5

A very pedestrian film about a fascinating subject. Focusing on discrete segments of the high end art world, using lots of earnest talking heads, it conveys the fact that big art is big business very clearly. But we've heard it all before, and much more interestingly.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
