No one expected a documentary, but serious art-history students may feel let down.

It ain't pretty but you have a choisa: See Modigliani or rent Derek Jarman's Caravaggio instead.

It's hard to take this oddball movie seriously, right down to the undisguised streetwise-American accent of Andy Garcia as the Italian Jew Amedeo Modigliani.

Modigliani's problems lie in its contentment with superficial clichés

Just another artistic sacrifice to life's ironies, cruelties, and bad filmmakers.

Director Mick Davis shows little if any imagination in presenting the troubled genius or the remarkable Montparnasse art scene of the World War I era, and that's the real bummer.

A film of vitality, with imagery as haunting and romantic as it is intense.

The real-life Modigliani did indeed live a short, tragic life, but this factually inaccurate, plodding film makes it feel twice as long.

The best and maybe the only use to be made of the catastrophic screen biography Modigliani is to serve as a textbook outline of how not to film the life of a legendary artist.

Modigliani is slow, shamefully cliched and disjointed as a cubist portrait.

Instead of trying to provide insight into this genius's debilitating madness, Davis prefers to wallow in incoherent and clichéd misery, punctuated by poetically oblique imagery.

Thanks to writer-director Mick Davis, the film, like its subject, dies young.
