This is basically another one of those 'awkward teenage boy tries to get the beautiful girl' kind of flicks, which all the while pokes fun at the world of art and art school in particular. Having graduated with a BA in Fine Art, I have to say the satire is spot on. I went to school with every one of those cliched characters, and I must admit I was probably a bit like that girl who screams/cries for absolutely no reason. Unless you've either been to art school, or have known artists, and have a bit of a cynical side to you, I don't think you will enjoy this. And even so, the in-jokes begin to fall a bit flat towards the end. Although I enjoyed the satire, the movie as a whole sort of disappointed me. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't great.
