Newcomers who can avoid feeling burned by occasional dishonesty should join longtime admirers in enjoying this account of a career Cattelan claims ended with his splashy Guggenheim retrospective in 2011.

Variety

"Maurizio Cattelan: Be Right Back," Axelrod plays along with [its] eccentric subject's insouciant attitude vis vis his own identity to mostly delightful effect.

Hyperallergic

Here, the bait-and-switch keeps the informed viewer on high alert and adds a shade of suspicion to every legitimately insightful comment Gioni-as-Cattelan makes. It must also be noted that Gioni's performance is superb.

The Young Folks

Be Right Back doesn't appear to revel in itself quite the same way. Rather, it takes itself a little too seriously, holding its viewers at the length of its over-stylized arms, and so becomes something of a snooze.

Rated: 4/10
