Rating: 2/5 --
A conventional biopic of renegade photographer Robert Mapplethorpe (a stranded Matt Smith) is a contradiction in terms, the pallid result feeling like an outline for a movie that no one actually made.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
A stunningly drab take on the life and legacy of a photographer who merged pornography with grace, Mapplethorpe doesn't have an artistic signature of its own, so much as a name it doesn't live up to.

The script, by Timoner and Mikko Alanne shows the rise of Mapplethorpe the erotic photographer through the positive and negative relations he had with people in his orbit.

How do you hew so close to biopic conventions -a dutiful recitation of this event happened, this fame arrived, that tragedy struck, etc - when you're dealing with an artist whose whole raison d'etre was finding beauty at the extreme edges of things?

[A] stylish, evocative, absorbing snapshot of creative expression, artistic ambition, sexuality and eroticism.
