Wassup Rockers (2005)
This movie was GREAT!
What an outstanding movie. This is easily up there with KIDS if not better. I need to see it a few more times in order to say for sure. During the Q&A after the movie Clark admitted that the goal was to make a film more accessible to kids so that they actually get a chance to see his movies. This means no more flying semen or murdered grandparents. This is a story about kids "from the ghetto" who don't quite fit in in the hood, and definitely don't fit into mainstream whitebread America, but that's all okay with them cause they have their freedom, and they have each other. I applaud Clark on this one. If you're a fan of the gratuitous 17 and under sex scenes then look elsewhere, Clark get the sex scenes done this time without going over the top. They're actually there as part of the story and not in the film for shock factor. Bottom line, amazing flick, and I hope it gets mainstream distribution. Of all his films, this one has the best shot of actually getting decent box office exposure.

This movie is 100% trash - possible spoilers but who cares.
Eye-popping visuals and cultural gags aside, the main storyline of this movie and it's execution are horrible. Drum battles? Jack Russel Terrier police dogs that sniff dirty underwear and salute signifying they are on the job? Drum sex? Black Ears? Castration = ultimate drum power? Like what the hell did I just witness? I'm sorry, this movie is just not good. Quirky, yes. Off the wall, definitely. Enjoyable.... I guess that's subjective. If you enjoy chaos with not much rhyme or reason then this is right up our alley. If you want your movies to make sense and have a plot line in which you'll somewhat care about seeing come to an end, then don't see this.
