Movie Reviews

Film Journal International - 10/10 by Eric MonderAs a simple story of inspiration, The Hip Hop Project fulfills its objectives.
AV Club - 9/10 by Nathan RabinProject provides an unmistakably one-sided view of rap as God's gift to the poor, angry, black, and young, but given the beating rap has taken in the press lately (please Oprah, don't hurt 'em!), the film's pro-rap cheerleading couldn't be more timely or necessary.
Christianity Today - 8/10 by Carolyn ArendsIts most compelling message is about the importance and power of community.
Los Angeles Daily News - 8/10 by Bob StraussNet profits from the theatrical release of The Hip Hop Project will be donated to youth organizations, so you can feel doubly good about attending this modestly moving tribute to a small but significant kind of inner-city success.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Mark OlsenPerhaps the film's biggest failing is simply that the music of The Hip Hop Project isn't more thrilling, that there isn't a sonic equivalent to the wounded, searching feelings of the young writers' lyrics.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Ted FryFirst-time director Matt Ruskin is a skilled documentarian; he releases information gradually so the narrative develops in an organic fashion that is consistently engaging.
Boston Phoenix - 8/10 by Tom MeekRolle's passion and perseverance power the film, and along the way he gets a boost from rap mogul Russell Simmons and Bruce Willis.
Reel.com - 8/10 by Jim Hemphillthe bottom line is that Kazi and his cohorts would be even better served by a film that was more than only intermittently involving, and The Hip Hop Project is not that film.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 8/10 by Bill WhiteWhile their stories are well worth telling, first-time director Ruskin fails to shape his material into the dynamic film it might have been.
Time Out - 7/10 by Mike WolfDespite a jumpy narrative, the film works because Kazi speaks to the kids on their level but from a slight elevation, and the honesty and raw emotion he draws out of them come through.
