'Paint': A Failed Attempt at Bob Ross Satire by Owen Wilson on SNL.
TL;DR Summary
Owen Wilson delivers a first-rate imitation of Bob Ross in the film "Paint," but the movie fails to capitalize on the potential for meta-commentary and mockery of the beloved television personality. Instead, the film drops Wilson's character, Carl Nargle, into a weak retread of "All About Eve" that fails to fully satirize its targets. Despite Wilson's excellent performance, the lack of a clear direction for the film leaves it feeling like a missed opportunity.
