Summary: Disappointed with the soundtrack tho...
Comment: The movie is awesome... A little crazy, but Outkast would have no other way.. I love the music, but the soundtrack is missing a few songs that are very popular in the movie... What's up with that?
Customer Rating:
Summary: An extended hip hop video
Comment: I think everyone can agree that visually Idlewild hit all the right points. It's the bad acting and predicable plot that has you cringing in your seat. I understand wanting to do something different with the rap-they were trying to reach their target audience, but it's so jarringly out of place that you can't quite forgive them for it. The shootout scenes are the best part of the film, but overall the film doesn't have that much to say. Did I mention that the acting is bad???

Summary: Best movie seen since a long time
Comment: Everything's in it: gangsters, love story, great actors, exceptionnal musicians with Andre 3000, Big Boi, Patty Lavelle, among others. The sound tracks are really good, Outkast beeing lifted by that southern jazz heritage.
We loved it here in Geneva, Switzerland...... Go for it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Out of place and time
Comment: In the speakeasy of the prohibition era both jazz
and blues got their start. Musically rap and hip hop
came much later: break dancing is also a later result.
To be fair the music and plot are pretty good,
but King Arthur doing rock and roll is as likely as
30's blacks doing rap. Historically it shames the heritage
of jazz.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Could've Been a Great Movie About Ambition
Comment: This movie had the potential of being a real eye opener for many people, but they reuined it with all the sex and cursing, two very unnecessary evils when trying to get your point across. I don't recommend it for anyone.
