Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

ElijahCSkuggs What we got here is a fine piece of documentary film-making that gives a nice look into the game. What you say? The Pimp game, brutha, know what I'm saying.Ya's got Scorpio, Don Juan, Big Lex, Snooky and all the top mac's spitting their game at you and all their ho's, know what I'm saying. And the ho's on display here are for real, know what I'm saying, they got the asses up in the air all day long for sho'. These bitches know what time it is, and if they don't know, then they get shut down, know what I'm saying. If they get outta pocket, they get pimp arrested. That ain't practiced by all Pimps, but some still keep their ho's on a collar for sho', know what I'm saying. Besides the bitches ya get to know the Pimps style, their rides, their swagger, and just everything that makes them suitable for the pimpin' game, know what I'm saying.The pimpin' game ain't easy. It's got trials and tribulations of any stressful job, know what I'm saying. Everybody's hating the Pimp, but they don't give a f@ck, cause it's all about making the buck, know what I'm saying. If you feel like you could be a pimp, or think ya are already, check yourself, and see how a real Daddy does it, know what I'm saying.

Shamenshamen a rare glimpse in to the pimping lifestyle, shows just how a ridiculous amount of money can be wasted on providing just the right trashy pimped-out look. although this documentary can be a little bit slow in parts, it's one of those films where you say to yourself "i'm so glad i saw it once, but probably wouldn't sit through it again". I rated a 9 due to unique content. i've seen other documentaries about pimping, none really have the content that this does. the pimps interviewed in this film were very open and contribute a lot of information to make this documentary something special.Fur coats, over-sized pointless jewelry, big shiny classic cars.

ssslawman I thought "Pimps" was very colorful and fairly insightful. Some may find it easy to dismiss because of the seamy subject matter. However, this seaminess aside, the film was very good. Although the viewer isn't given a full biography of each pimp, we are given insights into their backgrounds and motivations and "professional" challenges (e.g. Mr. White Folk's race and Big Lexx's gender). Although "Pimps" may be a bit lowbrow for the Friends/Frasier/Will & Grace crowd, it is very insightful and entertaining.

denny-16 This HBO documentary looks at the lifestyle of the modern day pimp, without any condemnation or real depth. These swaggering men (and one woman) discuss how they control their 'hos' as if they were regular businessmen. Although no regular businessman would dress in their flamboyant style which seems a parody of those 'Blaxploitation' characters in the 1970's movies. We see them preparing, with great seriousness of purpose, for 'The Pimp of the Year' competition, while guest star Ice-T tells of how proud he is of his pimp background, which he sees as little different to the record or film industry. Pointedly, violence towards the women is never addressed. All we see is a troupe of apparently adoring (and often skanky looking ) acolytes. As far as we learn from this, the prostitutes need a good pimp to look up to and 'take of them'. These fellows wax philosophical about their calling while seemingly lacking any moral view. Having said all that, the pic is lively and colorful, with a lot of amusing characters on display. Remember---never make eye contact with your pimp.
