Review of The Hip Hop Project (2006) by Kyle M — 08 Feb 2010

A documentary-style look at inner city youth brought together under the hip hop banner by a formerly homeless teenager and how their lives were transformed for the better. With a lack of direction, this script meanders all over the place and makes for a dull, uninspiring and frustrating watch.

The smattering of music that is played is very good and accents the film well, but unfortunately, they decided not to include full versions or more of it. Certainly not worth the time needed to watch it, even for the hardcore fans of the genre or idea behind it.
