    You think so? I just saw this too and I thought it was really good.

    Yes i agree - overall a terd... there were some parts I liked (when dude fucked up Luda and the way dude talked was cool but a couple times I couldn't understand a cotdamn thing he was sayin). Some other parts I thought were funny like "is a pig's pussy pork" had me rollin! The movie had potential but I don't know - maybe the ending is what I didn't like... I don't always like the typical ending - fairytale like a mutha fucka...

    Plaese to share reasons why ya'll thought this was terdy other than the, uh.. happy ending.

    I thought the performances were solid enough..

    we may have to throw down over this statement.

    DJ Qualls is a golden god

    you may be joking.

    however, actually, now that I reflect a bit on his character, it wasn't all that preposterous.

    the skinny white record nerd schooling the clueless ghetto black guys on the roots of Memphis music is actually (sadly) sort of on point.

    for the record I thought Terrence Howard gave a helluva performance.

    and there were some serious session players on the soundtrack also.

    plus Isaac Hayes.

    maybe it wasn't a complete loss.

    I thoroughly enjoyed it. Even the "special features" were above average.

    That Buddy Guy track "baby please don't leave me" in the beginning was killer!

    I liked the main character's long weed-out rants. I also liked Anthony Anderson's smoking-hot wife.

    The advertisements were so embarrassing bad I don't think I'll ever actually be able to watch this movie

    But I did like some of the soundtrack

    I didn't expect anything out of the movie but came away entertained. I liked them coming up with ideas for songs and getting down. I like the end with Luda. Other parts as well.
