4-0 out of 5 stars A Breakdance Movie with a Hollywood Touch...
This movie is about how life was for urban NYC youngsters during the early 80's. Hip-Hop gave rise with its four elements: Graffiti, Breakdance, MCing, and DJing running wild through the streets. This was the rich culture that people all over the world immersed themselves in and were impacted by. But I agree with those that say Hollywood exploited this culture we call Hip-Hop. They made this movie without understanding its true meaning and essence. But this movie is a fun watch because there are many big names known to the Hip-Hop world in it like the Rock Steady Crew and NYC Breakers, Kool Herc, Doug E. Fresh, Kool Moe Dee, and many other big names. If anything, this movie is remembered for one thing and that is the notorious ROXY scene and the battle between two great breakdance crews, RSC and NYC Breakers. It's probably one of the best battle scenes ever. I also like this movie because they had a couple of scenes at my alma mater, CCNY. The romance and drama is typical of Hollywood and it doesn't really help to formidably portray the Hip-Hop culture in anyway, rather it takes away from the few notable parts in the movie. They should of omitted the fakery and just focused on what it claims to be about, Hip-Hop. I think it would have had a better reputation and gotten much more respect from those who actually lived the culture during that period. I recommend "Wild Style" or "Style Wars" to check out what Hip-Hop was really all about in those days. PEACE!

5-0 out of 5 stars And the Beat Goes On
A true hip-hop classic. I was first introduced to this film through my mother who was a teenager at the time of it's original release in 1984. Thanks to this movie, at 9 years old, i have a greater appreciation for hip hop and better understand its origins. This movie gives an accurate representation of one of the 20th century's most influential musical genres. Unlike the other hip hop movies Beat Street accurately captures the look and feel of the hip hop culture of New York City in the 80s (sheepskins, bomber jackets, kangol hats) It also takes a holistic look at hip hop nation astutely incorporating all of its elements - rap music, break dancing, spinning/mixing, graffiti art. More than just a movie about hip hop, it is a movie about familial ties, friendship and the triumph of the human spirit. It is a must see for the new generation of hip hop soldiers. Buy it - YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED! Peace out!

5-0 out of 5 stars THIS MOVIE SHOULDN'T EVER GET LESS THAN 5!!!!!!
WHOEVER GAVE BEAT STREET LESS THAN 5,,AREN'T TRUE TO HIP HOP,AND PROBABLY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THE MOVEMENT THAT BOUGHT ABOUT YOUR 50 CENTS,AND PETEY PABLO'S,AND JAY-Z'S.... BEAT STREET IS MY #1 HIP HOP MOVIE!!! (...)BEAT STREET WILL REMAIN A CLASSIC TO ME..

5-0 out of 5 stars A combination of Beastmaster,Andromeda,Mutant X and Hiphop
Beat street is one of the greatest movies of all time since House party and Class act came out in the 90's decade where I grew up.It was really a great movie and one of the best movies of the year!

5-0 out of 5 stars ROCKSTEADY BY FAR WINS THE BATTLE, OFF CAMERA
In the movie it would have appeared that NYC Breakers would have won the battle @ the Roxy because of their fast, dynamic moves. But I think Rocksteady on the streets would beat them easy. If you see home movie footage of both groups, Rocksteady by far has more original and different moves that show true bboying. But dont get me wrong, I'm not taking away from the NYC Breakers power and speed, and I still think they are tight !! This was my favorite movie growing up in the 80's along with Fast Times @ ridgemont high (what a combination huh !) peace ya'll ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars FORCED TO SEE GRAY
Young James' world is limited to the Negro Quarters of rural Louisiana until a tootache forces him into a world he never imagined. A trip into town to get a tooth pulled ends up as a classroom for life's lessons and ambiguities. Set in the early 1940's, "The Sky is Gray", is the film adaptation of Ernest Gaines' short story. It is a classic piece in that a young Black boy comes face to face with the contradictions in the black and white adult world. Seen through an adolescent's eyes you will feel his surprise, raise his questions and share his hurts. This wonderful film is sensitive in its portrayal of a young boy forced to grow up in a hostile world. Gaines' black and white characters move beyond the stereotypes of southern society. Through James' eyes you see a young man confronting the slave mentality of a preacher while waiting for his dental appointment. You see James' mother attempting to maintain her dignity and pride when she knows her earnings are meager.Yet you find a woman who is willing to accept kindness, on her own terms. She makes it clear to her son that they are not beggers but working people. Most of all this film teaches us the lessons youth must be forced to learn especially if they're in an environment that is determined to keep them poor, ignorant and disenfranchised. James' mother must force him to grow up fast before he is consumed by the world. James sees the grays in this adult world but there is hope that he will be able to overcome the obstacles. This is a beautiful story about adolescence, becoming a man and learning how to live with dignity and pride regardless of your status. You will enjoy this touching story that reaches into your heart and fills you with joy for James and all young boys who must walk a similar path. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars excellent bi-lingual and inclusive video of Israeli life.
These videos are a great transition from the Sesame Street characters of America to the Rohov Sesame characters of Israel. The inclusion of adult stars such as Yitzhoq Perlmann and Bonnie Franklin make this enjoyable for older students and adults as well as pre-schoolers. The large use of humor makes the tape times seem to pass very quickly. A fine way to introduce Israeli culture especially,Israeli Arab culture which is often overlooked in studies of Israel. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Kermit
I have only seen one of these videos but based on that one I can tell you that this is a exellent value and well worth the price. The one that I'm taking about is the best of kermit. It is very smartly shown as a award ceremony called the annual frog of the year award. Kermits life is shown through various clips during this ceremony presented by Grover. This video was so exellently done that I think that this 2 pack is well worth the price for any fan. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars one of the best they made , all my kids loved it over &over
The best thing about it is you can put the kids in front of the television for about 50 minutes and do some things around the house & the kids won't move. They have alot of celeberties in the video. Sesame Street is the BEST thing that ever happened to children lets hope for another 30 years. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Sing Yourself Silly wonderful for people of all abilities.
Our daughter is in Special Ed. Her teacher plays this almost every afternoon at rest time. It really helps the children learn language and music. I enjoy the guest stars... including Pres. Clinton! I had to buy the video for our home, so I can figure out who all of the stars are! Y'know, "I know that face and voice, but who IS she/he? " Everyone will like this video, from 1 month old to 110 years old! Buy it. Buy it now! This 2-pack is an extra bonus! ... Read more
