Big Money Hustlas

You gotta give props to the clowns for making their own movie... I meen come on, they funded everything themselves and had all of their friends play the parts (a few aside). Violent J's brother Jump Steady played like half the roles through the whole movie (listen to the commentary on the DVD) and never complained... so how can you complain when you are just sitting there watching it? If you don't like my comment or review thing or whatever then you are obviously not a Juggalo, and that's 'Scrait' (Lil' Poot style), but just don't be dissin' on something just cause the Wicked Clowns and Twiztid are in it.

Big Money Hustlaz is one of the biggest laugh riots I've ever seen. The entire thing makes fun of mainstream rappers and blaxploitation movies. I actually had to turn it off at one point to retain oxygen in my lungs from howlin' at Jamie Madrox & the Monoxide Child (from the band Twiztid), who both play the two funniest characters in this movie.

But it's ONLY 4 JUGGALOS! Don't you dare watch this movie if you aren't a fan of ICP.

And if you are, there's enough Clown Love for everyone!

This movie is strictly for juggalos (aka ICP fans). this movie is about sugar bear (2 dope), who tries to stop a money obsessed gang leader (violent J.). 2 dope bumps Not Rated : CAUTION: LOTS OF SWEARING!

Over-rated white hip hop outfit with cult following makes low budget film. Doesn't exactly sounds like a great achievement in modern cinema, does it? While it clearly fails at anything resembling conventional success, this movie does achieve a bizarre sort of diamond-in-the-rough eminence that you don't necessarily have to be a Faygo-loving Detroit native to appreciate. As someone who holds great disdain for the campy music and image of Insane Clown Posse, I obviously saw this movie with exceedingly low expectations. In the end, I came away seeing a movie with surprising cinematography, a plot that rises above the sheer inanity you're expecting, and far more than its fair share of both cheap and earned laughs.

The plot basically amounts to ruthless drug lord versus smooth renegade cop, an obvious parody of the blaxploitation cliché. The execution is certainly quite a bit more ambitious than what you'd expect from a movie made by musicians, especially considering the band's only two members don't appear on screen together until the last quarter of the movie. Since both the villain and the protagonist both wear face paint during all scenes of the picture, you can expect a great deal of heavy-handed silliness. However, when the plot turns serious, you care about the characters without things becoming corny or over done. There are still obvious complaints, arising primarily from poor acting, which isn't surprising. On the other hand, the underlying quality of this film is surprising, and makes it worth a view when you're in the mood for a cult film that is strangely entertaining.

Having been a fan of ICP for such a long, LONG time, I can honestly say this movie sucks. It's horrible. But that's what makes it so goddamned great. I love ICP, and I commend them for making a film that only they (and the Juggalos) could sit through. And the best part? They're filming a prequel. I hope this saga never ends. I wish I could say the same for all sagas...

In short, this movie certainly isn't for everyone, but I urge everyone to see it, if not for your love of all things Psychopathic, then for your love/distaste for all things horrendously entertaining/appalling. Much clown love to all, and keep runnin' with the hatchet, mutha facko!
