Reviews
- "For those familiar with his body of work, finally being let in on every secret Kienitz Wilkins has kept up his sleeve over the course of the film prompts not only an emotional release, but feels like an intellectual triumph."
- "Seven years after collaborating on The Plagiarists, writers James N. Kienitz Wilkins and Robin Schavoir return with The Misconceived—another incisive, inventive movie about the anxieties faced by the never-quite-made-it creative class."
- "His newest feature, The Misconceived, catapults his recurring constellation of themes into his craziest visual world yet."
- "Wilkins is one of the most unique and perceptive filmmakers working today. This mishmash of atypical cinematic techniques only brings forth how one’s appearance, whether it be humans or movies, can deceive and offer a larger truth."
