I love Run DMC and the Beastie Boys, but this movie was trash. To list what was good is easier and shorter than listing what was bad. And to be clear--since we're talking about a movie starring hip-hop artists--I mean bad as in awful not bad in the complimentary sense. The only thing good about this "movie" was the music. Everything else was terrible: the plot, the acting, the editing, the sound, the video quality, everything. The plot started as something very nebulous and somehow morphed into a revenge plot. One of Run DMC's homies was killed by the antagonist, Vic. Run DMC and Jam Master J then went about trying to find the real killer and exact justice. It was laughably bad, but I won't hold it against these hip-hop pioneers.
