As an 18 year old I was a big fan of the music Snoop made with Tha Eastsidaz. Sure it was obnoxious and ignorant but the P-Funk influenced beats and gritty vocal tones of Goldie Loc and Tray Deee proved to be an irresistible combination for me and my friends. Despite being fans we all had to admit this movie was sh*t. It's weaknesses are all summed up in the other reviews here. Most notable are the horrible camera-work and some messy dialogue . It's clear they were to lazy to rehearse most lines. I can imagine their reasoning, like 'Ey cuz, let's make this seem...natural, just do how we do, you know'. Sadly this doesn't work at all, with lines being mumbled and interrupted by others.

When me and my friends first watched this we knew we had something bad when we saw the second scene. The first one isn't all that bad, as it sets the premise for the story and contains some graphic violence. The next scene destroys all this momentum as it takes far too long to pick up the story: we first have to watch minutes of Snoop and his homies smoking blunts in a depressing small storehouse. Still, this movie is a weird time capsule of a document. Four years after this Tray Deee (who plays the bad guy in this movie) would become disgruntled with Snoop Dogg and Tha Eastsidaz were disbanded.

The sloppiness of this movie also gives it an awkward charm, making it so obvious this thing was made by a group of guys who were meant to be musicians...but not movie makers. It's just a forgettable piece of work that's memorable for fans only. Or maybe also for 22th century students studying cinematic depictions of early 21th century Los Angeles gang culture. We'll see!

The movie itself is really bad. The production is so bad it's funny. It was made with some sort of home video camera. The movie had some very ridiculous scene's that dont have anything to do with the movie. The actors were a little bad although it's because their rappers which is excusable. It was going in the right direction but they made it a little serious. The movie has all cliches of any book or movie. Dont read ahead if you if you are sure to see the movie or I might spoil it. It has the whole framing, busting out of jail and last and bluntely taking vengance on the person that was most trusted, it even has a very bad excuse for a comedy releif. It looks like some low budget Chinese movie with their simple plots. If you are a big fan of Tha Eastsidaz then watch it but you like snoop but not enough then you will hate it. If you dont like snoop dog at all, which is very unlikely please stay the as far away from this movie. They should try again and this time make lighten it up a bit.

The basic premise of "Tha Eastsidaz" is Snoop Dogg and friends sitting about smoking weed. Then Snoop goes to jail and when he breaks out he kills a bunch of white people. The sound and picture quality are awful...which gets me to wondering if a cameraman, unbeknowest to the S man, followed him around for a week or two. Only upside to this is the rapping and seeing Snoop smoke blunts like a madman. I mean who would pay to see this... oh wait i did. Blast me and my illogical movie choices. I instead should have rented "The Voyage of Mimi." Ben Afflek for life.

Also check out "Bones" (I havn't seen it but if you like this crap, then your sure to love it)

Based on today's standards the camera work and acting isn't great but if you're a big hip hop fan, especially from the old ways then you'll appreciate the cast, soundtrack and the plot moves quickly. It's a classic for the cast members.

The Eastsidaz was probably the weakest movie I've ever seen. The story, which could be ok if not speckled with lame drug refrences and the atroutious naming of snap crackle and pop (ha, not funny), is weak contrived and filled with holes. The acting and production quality of this film is far below that of modern pornography. The over use of cussing in the script writing and the contrived dialect, which seems almost to stereo typical to be real, is sickening if not offensive. I think any young "punk" with a VHS or HI-8 camera and minimal editing skills that failed english in high school could write, direct and find better actors for a film. I'd personnaly suggest staying as far away from this flaming pile as possible. In short if you'd like to see bad camera work, bad acting and bad writing, without risking lending your kids the camcorder, rent or buy this film. Ernest goes to prison, with it's lame, yet similair wrong person in prison premise, is more worth your time, and won't insult your intelligence as much.

Great movie! Perfect if you like "OG"(Original Gangster) type movie's, and especially I like it cause it happens to be filmed at Snoop-Doggz house, I know where that is but I won't give location. Wonderful, for Snoop's Gangster ACTING! Wonderful Movie, Rent/Buy! Today!!!!

Sure this movie has bad acting moments, weak production, poor shootouts and looks like a home video, but if you start watching it knowing this you should get some enjoyment out of it. If you still don't it's understandable though.

Those who aren't fans of Snoop Dogg will most likely never like this movie because of the reasons above and the fact that there are a considerable amount of rappers acting in it, fans may hate it too, but the later should give it a try. There are some funny moments (some intentional and some not) it has a reasonably original plot and some good music.

Overall it is a movie not to be taken seriously. It can be compared to Blaxploitation movies like Dolemite. You have to understand that it's not a good film, but you can still enjoy it if that's what you're expecting. But definitely rent it first.
