7/10
Very entertaining!

I don't know exactly what people were expecting, they keep writing bad reviews and giving the film a low rating. It's an MTV movie people. Overall it was not that bad. Very low budget, like a super long music video, lots of talent involved. Most of them even acted well. Half the people who were in this film wouldn't be caught dead participating in such a film in this day an age but it's nice that we have something like this to look back on. Beyonce acted very well in it (in fact her acting was better in this film than some of her more recent work.) I miss Mekhi Pfeiffer I wish they would cast him in more films instead of letting his talent go to waste. Mos Def was also good. Joy Bryant the serial best-friend was also decent. Also, it's a good thing to know that Beyonce can rap pretty decently. It was short, to the point and precise. Well done all!
