So well-regarded was the documentary Crumb (1994) that the failure of it and of the same year's equally acclaimed Hoop Dreams (1994) to result in Oscar nominations caused a media furor which forced the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to revamp its documentary nomination process. Robert Crumb is a respected but controversial underground comic book artist and writer whose creations include the popular "Keep on Truckin'" and Fritz the Cat (1972). Crumb's adult subject matter includes weird sexual obsessions, social criticism, and personal, confessional observations about abnormal human psychology. The genesis and meaning of Crumb's work is explained through a series of interviews with his colleagues, former lovers, and especially family members, which reveal a horrific upbringing that has crippled both Crumb and his siblings -- but has also fueled the artist's groundbreaking work. A long-time friend of the film's subject, director Terry Zwigoff followed Crumb (1994) with another comic book-related project, Ghost World (2000), a drama based on a story from the anthology series "Eightball" by Daniel Clowes. ~ Karl Williams, RoviIf You Like this movie you can streaming Crumb movie without downloading HERE

Review For Movie Crumb
Crumb's sense of humor is his saving personal grace and the movie's insurance policy against total immersion into the morbid. But just so you know, Crumb fully earns its most revealing screen credit: 'David Lynch Presents.'Mike Clark-USA Today
Crumb may be rough around the edges, even occasionally tedious, but what Zwigoff manages to uncover is honest, captivating and strangely visceral.
R. L. Shaffer-IGN DVD
(An) offbeat and often uncomfortably revealing portrait of the legendary underground comic book artist Robert Crumb and his brothers, Maxon and Charles...
Sean Axmaker-MSN.com
A balanced and insightful portrait of a fascinating artist, a wrenching and unvarnished depiction of a tragic family, an incredible statement of friendship, and one of the most inspired depictions of the creative process I've ever seen.
John Lingan-Slant Magazine
an absolutely disarming documentary and one of the very best of its kind
James Kendrick-Q Network Film Desk
Filled with haunting images, only a few of which are created by the hand of R. Crumb.
Christopher Long-Movie Metropolis
Among the all-time great American documentaries.
Stan Hall-Oregonian
interesting
Stefan Birgir Stefansson-sbs.is
This brilliant docu is not just a portrait of a compulsive artist, but also a deep inquiry into the mysteries of art, creativity, mental illness and family bind.
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com
Sporadically intriguing but ultimately overrated...
David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
Zwigoff's biography of Crumb is both absorbing and repellent, and it may be one of the best documentaries to make the connection between creativity and craziness.
Thomas Delapa-Boulder Weekly
As biographical documentaries go, this one holds our attention from start to finish. It ropes in obviously reluctant participants, it offers a nice balance between private and public moments, and it provides plenty of the cartoonist's illustrations.
James Plath-Movie Metropolis
Geek coolness abounds.
