Details

Erik is a hip-hop-lovin' teen living in Philadelphia who'd rather spend time listening to his idol, the rapper Prolifik. One day, Erik finds himself more entangled in Prolifik's life than he ever imagined possible: Prolifik's been kidnapped, his master tapes are gone, and, through a series of twisted events, the same people who are after the musician go after Erik, too.

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
lndkramer To me Snipes has one of the best plots I've seen in a movie. The action never stops and you can never once guess what will happen next. There is always another twist. Dean Winters is a great evil villain and he really makes you hate him. Zoe Saldana is gorgeous as always and a very good actress. Seeing Nelly in it was interesting but he played a part anyone could of played so I'm pretty impartial to his performance. Not bad but not amazing. This is a movie that never gets talked about or anything, and I'm surprised. It's one of my favorites and I recommend it to anyone who likes thrillers, gangster movies, crime dramas, and even rap movies.
tiara_1299 This is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. It explains how hard life can be when u hit the big time and also talks about what would happen if a fan was in a situation when he had to kill his idol? Nelly was amazing in this movie, proving that he can rap but he is an amazing actor as well. I think this movie was also a very touching story(especially at the end of the movie). To tell u the truth I was crying, I not going to lie. Also ladies, if u wanna see a bunch of hot guyz then this is the best movie for u. It of course has Nelly in it and a bunch of other hot playaz. There is something for the men too. There is a woman in the movie , Cheryl, acted by Zoe Saldana. She looks good for all them men.lol.Well if u want to see a hot movie that is a drama, action, and a love story, this is the movie for u to see.
Omar Mouallem Now this isn't one of the great thrillers of our time, but it is one of the best of the year. It's smart and fascinating, surprise-a-minute crime film that's held together with a great line of unknown talent. Even pop-rap superstar Nelly, (the main bill on the box art) did a wonderful job as a cocky and arrogant, yet undeniably talented rap artist.In comparison with Black-urban action flicks, this is almost right up there with Hype Williams overlooked masterpiece, Belly. In fact, in comparison with most rap-movies (ex: anything by Master P, or Dame Dash) this is Oscar worthy (in comparison, of course).From begining to end, this cause-and-effect thriller will hold you onto the edge of your seat and let go of you with a sharp blast to the frontal head.
eyesp Nelly is the bestest, and if you like band-aids and testicularless rhyme styles, this is the movie for you. In this movie, you get to see nellys ass when he gets out of the shower, so if you are from norway, you will really, really, really love this movie. GO #TURNTABLISM
