...Savvy and cheerful....[Cundieff is the film's] funniest performer...
New York Times
Rating: 4/5 --
It lampoons the luminaries, yes, but gives their authentic anger, which came from a real place, the benefit of gentler nudges. Its greatest fury lambastes losers who embraced a gangster rap ethos to build a bank account, not let loose a battle cry.

The Film Yap
Rating: 3/5 --
If Mr. Cundieff doesn't match the satirical genius of Mr. Reiner's film, he does understand the rules of the game.
New York Times
Rating: 4/5 --
Satire at its finest. Uproarious and endlessly creative.
Arizona Daily Star
...Rudely amusing... -- Rating: B
Entertainment Weekly
While individual interviews, pop-video parodies and album titles hit the mark, the film as a whole is insufficiently clear-cut in its satire of the bands' dubious antics and attitudes.

...The best hip-hop film of all, taking on obvious targets and sacred cows alike...
