Rotten
This is a terrible, terrible worthless movie that you shouldn't give any time to.
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies
Overview
Filth & Wisdom is a poignant view of the lives of three not quite ordinary friends settled into meaningless jobs that barely keep them afloat while helping to finance their dreams of bigger and brighter futures. Their unique yet universal stories capture their struggles that are at turns funny and tragic but always brutally honest. Their intertwined lives explore the inevitable: a path paved with filth will often end in wisdom and one paved with wisdom will often end in filth.

I'm confident the material girl has more good material for movies ahead of her.

Does anyone remember when Madonna was considered shocking?
Peter Howell, Toronto Star

At 84 minutes, the movie feels both overpadded and underdeveloped.

Message to the director: Don't quit your day job just yet, but in the category of multidisciplinary artists moonlighting as filmmakers, I'll take you over Julian Schnabel any day.
