Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Staci Frederick Blistering performances.

lastliberal There was a moment at the beginning of this film where we got to see 30 seconds of Halle Berry. That is the only thing that made my investment of time worthwhile. After that it was all down hill.I guess this was supposed to be a mocumentary similar to This is Spinal tap. That would be cool except you have to listen to motherfu**er every other second and also subject yourself to a constant barrage of mysogenic, homophobic trash.In addition to Halle, it also featured Khandi Alexander (CSI) and Teresa Randle (Girl 6), but to see them you had to suffer through Chris Elliott and Phil Hartman - hardly worth the effort.Did I mention you have to listen to motherfu**er every other second?

mkw-5 This is really funny movie. It's well made in every way. Comedy must be one of the most difficult "art" forms, alongside with horror. It's very well written, the timing is good, actors are good. Full of good ideas. And it's not only funny, it's also kind of sad, humane and beautiful. It's made with love.This movie makes you want to forget all the BIG, Tupac and Suge Knight sh*t. The people in this movie have beef also, but it seems more like they are playing: They are not serious psychopaths like some. But anyway, after the rap world has experienced very seriously what playing with guns does in real life, it's a little confusing feeling to notice that you're laughing to these guys who are popping' their machine guns. But if you can take it as humor and all that, it's good movie. After all, these guys didn't kill anybody.But in the end, under the "irony" and humor, there is some small but serious messages and lessons to learn if somebody wants to.

rutiz i have only seen this movie once, back in 1993 in NYC when it first come out. since then, i have heard nothing! it's not on amazon or any other on-line video shop (if you know otherwise, please post the address and let me know!), and i can still remember it so clearly.as so many others here have already mentioned, the "sweat of my balls" and "straight outta lokash" are the high points, along with a funny sex scene i remember when our hero says something like "i ain't goin' down there!!"if anyone knows where i can lay my hands on a copy, PLEASE let me know!

nailed-3 This movie is a classic. I had wanted to see it when I was younger, but of course I wasn't allowed to. I saw this a few months ago and it was even better now. This is one of Chris Rock's best performances, he nails the role of a rapper perfectly (not to mention his costume...). The movie was one of the first to feature parody raps and they are great, considering this film was Pre-Insane Clown Posse and the like. "Sweat from my balls" still makes me laugh every time I hear it.Some might say this does not transfer to the new rap school, but It definitely does. If you were once a fan of oldschool rap or are still a fan of rap, this movie is definitely worth checking out.
