Title: Okay Movie But Worthy Hip Hop History Piece
Product review: Spike Lee turned down this script.... That says it all. But I still wish it would be released on DVD. I think it's still a Hip Hop historical piece from that era. Shame it only grossed less than a million. Probably cost a million to produce though. They should have promoted this a little bit more. I recall reading about significant delays with this movie being released and problems on the set with Rick Rubin. It should have been a better movie with the caliber of rap stars they had. But by 1988 Run-DMC's fame was wading and their careers were starting to fade out a little in the late '80s. Nowadays, 50 cent gets a 30 million dollar movie budget and top notch promotion on all these shows and magazines. They could have done a little better with this one.
