If you've got a sense of humor, I recommend "Body Rock". It stars Lorenzo Lamas as an inept MC who becomes famous. The film is pretty ridiculous, but there is some decent breaking and a lot of unintentional laughs.
sharei can't believ you just mentioned 'rappin'. that is serioulsy the worst movie of all time. you're an idiot if you're going to put that up on a list of 'respectable' hip hop movies. especially next to 'freshest kids' and 'the show'.
shareIt's a stretch, but there's a doc out there called "Just For Kicks". It's about shoes, but Grandmaster Caz, Doze, Futura 2000 and a few others are in it.
Worth watching, i think.
Nice list.
I've seen it at the idfa, a dutch documentary festival. It's a great doc, not just for sneaker freaks, but also for people that like hiphop (for above mentioned reasons)
