Summary: The Best Hip Hop from the Old Scool out there!
Review: This is the best Hip Hop old school movie there is out there. Maybe not the "realest" (Wildstyle) but as far as pure entertainment, this is the one. It has everything: a great soundtrack, characters you can get into (even though the acting is not the best), cameos by legends of the old school, incredible b-boy sequences, and more. The widescreen looks and sounds better than it ever has and the trailer that comes with it is worth the money by itself. It contains several scenes that were cut out of the movie, including the classroom battle sequence while set to a new rap track not on either soundtrack. If you are fan of Hip Hop or breakin, this is a must buy!

Summary: sneak peak at early hip hop culture
Review: This movie gives the new young generation a sneak peak into the early 80's hip hop culture....the place where breakdancers, dj's, tagging all began. where the movie lacks in acting it gains in breakdancing moves, battles, and music. a must see for any true hip hop fan!

Summary: For Those Who Are True To Hip Hop
Review: Beat Street is a Hip Hop Classic. I remember when I was nine and I saw this movie for the first time. I was already into breakdancing and hip hop music, but this movie made me embrace the culture even more. This movie allows you to enter the world of the pioneers of hip hop.

Summary: Finally
Review: Finally "Beat Street" is released on DVD!This is a classic movie, if you were from that era, this movie will bring back memories. It is a great snapshot of the times. Not only does it contain great music (Melle Mel, The System, The Treacherous 3), it has some awesome breaking scenes from 2 of the two best crews (New York City Breakers and the almighty Rock Steady Crew). The romance angle may be a little overblown, but overall the movie is a treat to watch. Definitely recommended if you are into Hip Hop and want to see what it was like back in the day.

Summary: Blast from the past
Review: Wow. This movie is electrifying. I was fortunate enough to be into Hip Hop at the time the movie was released. I remember the older B-Boys in my school talking about it. It is unusual for a movie to actually live up to the hype surrounding it. This one not only lives up to the hype, it overtakes it by a mile or 2.
The music, it signifies real Hip Hop, it has a live soundtrack with real Hip Hop artists, real B-Boys, not a bunch of fairys from some dance school acting the parts of B-Boys.
It is an amazing film documenting real Hip Hop and its elements ie:The music, The breakin' and the gaffitti. Any new jacks wanting to learn about the history of the culture in its original form, this movie is a must. THIS MOVIE IS A PART OF HIP HOP HISTORY FROM A TIME WHEN HIP HOP WAS REAL.

Summary: Very Prophetic
Review: Like some of the other guys writing these reviews, I've had a hell of a time trying to find this movie on DVD or even VHS for that matter. I saw this movie back in the day in 1984 when I was in high school, and it served as an inspiration for all my Hip Hop Breakdancing friends who were into the battling. I got the the old 12 inch vinyl record featuring Grand Master Melle Mel's rap from Beat Street and the 45 single as well. I listened to the 12 inch version that I recorded on a old Memorex tape I recorded it on long ago in my car recently and it brings back a flood of memories. Though I never paid much attention to the verses much back in the day, when I listen to it now, Melle Mel's rap of the "world being in terror", "the leaders makin an error", "the whole world caught on fire", and "the revelation of death" as our cure sounds eerily prophetic considering the post 9/11 times we face today. The fact that this movie and soundtrack takes place in New York makes it even more of a crazy thing. I hope this movie and soundtrack comes out on DVD and CD soon. That way, future generations can learn from its rich Hip Hop past.

Summary: SPIT!!!
Review: Thank you Beat Street for blessing me with the inspiration of folowing my dreams through your beautiful production of street knowledge. This Movie is "HIP-HOP" which helps me remember the Orgin of the Lifestyle. HIP-HOP is a blessing from GOD, it's lifted more of our abilities of natural expressionism & Culture.
I LEAVE YOU WITH THIS: "There is a difference between RAP(SPIT) & Hip-Hop!!!
