scribblescrub I'm writing this in absolute disbelief how the main review that showed up on this page is absolutely asinine. I honestly thought for a moment that Al Sharpton himself decided that being a robot trying to destroy a festival wasn't satisfying enough to his ever-shrinking heart. But seriously, the reviewer gave it a 1-star, and went on to talk about how it was down right offensive and about nothing other than money, hoes, and weed.This is the kind of thing that makes me upset, they had a multitude of rap and hip hop icons working neck and neck with the animators and the writing team. This entire show was supposed to be a tribute to an insane event that happened once a year. Not to be taken seriously by anybody, and to say the only intelligent female throughout, who is based off Oprah, that's just ridiculous. But then again I can tell you the reviewer who caused me to write this also was an extra in the movie itself. At one point Big Uzi is diving into a sea of gyrating asses. This was Jamais Jochim's acting debut in all it's gyrating glory. This country we live in is a complete culture pit, and I think only when we strip off our pride and really destroy ourselves for comedic benefit is when progress from hundred year old grudges might actually happen.But then again, titties, money, hoes. Word out.

girrocksmysocksoff I watched this movie and just fell in love. The rapping is solid and sounds great. The acting was humorous and well done. The story line was not made to be serious. I know a lot of people dog on T-Pain for "over using auto-tune", which does at times make people sound a lot better. But I think what people miss is that it brings a style to singing. Maybe T-Pain sucks at singing with out the help of the program, but with it he brings a different style of music. Which can also work in his favor, such as it may work for his voice but for another person could make it sound horrible. It may not be talent but it sounds really good, so why dog it. It works really good with the musical. The art of the musical is all done in I guess you would say a graffiti style which is perfect for the movie it is.In a nut shell: Its a rap musical, featuring several top rap artist, with T-Pain as Freaknik turning Spring Break into the party it should be, and three young men trying to rising to fame.Can not wait for the soundtrack ^_^

solidgameboy12-1 Freaknik is the Adult Swim 1 hour program that stars rapper T-pain, the rapper notoriously known for his use of Auto Tune throughout his albums.I can't say I'm a follower in the legion of T-pain fans (I'm classic rock, I have to say) but I do watch a lot of Adult Swim, and unlike most of the shows, I couldn't get myself to miss this.The story starts when the major character, Freaknik, an Atlanta rapper who was at the top of his game, was arrested and eventually killed (A obvious reference to many famous rappers, who die so mysteriously) but a cool little summoning brings back the spirit of Freaknik, and thus, the voice that is the Auto-Tune sound of T-Pain arises.The story kind of moves into a rag to riches story that plays by the numbers. It may be an entire hour, but to be honest, it is not the story I was watching it for, because I have seen better; it's the actors, the music and the character, Freaknik.Again, I am not a rap music enthusiast; In fact, if I had to advocate any rap music, it was everything in the 90s and that was the end of it, and I do not enjoy T-Pain's music, and yet, I was intrigued by it all. T-Pain sounds like a character when he "Raps", so in said case, the Auto Tune voice makes the character seem a little bit more lively.The actors in the movie are probably the reason I wanted to see this for the most part: You have Snoop Dog, Andy Samberg and Bill Hader, Charlie Murphy, many great celebrity personalities to hear, but most are so underused in this project, Samberg and Hader used for about 3 minutes, Charlie Murphy for about a few seconds, and Snoop Dog for about a minute, all to bring us back to a few characters whose are dull as dishwater, actually.So, all that leaves to judge is Freaknik, the character, who was actually the best part. The character, a spirit, is actually real lively in speech, and The songs Freaknik does range from the over-excesses of Women, Drinks and Money, to helping strippers getting out of their awful jobs and getting them into college.This is where the movie excels, and unfortunately, that's as good as it gets. You get a handful of songs and a few chuckles here and there but that's it. It is a picture of little redeemable value.I think the problem was so much of the ideas were based on T-Pain that everything was given a backseat, so in order to make the movie watchable, it was just up to hiring a few well known rappers to give most a movie part in something.But, if this were a full length motion picture, I'm sure the story would be better than it is, and honestly, I'd like to see that. Freaknik is interesting character, perhaps in another longer project, just recreate the entire story to make characters who are interesting, not cardboard cutout ghetto characters with no passion or drive, you lose interest too quickly and it shows when the writers really create nothing more than an an overly long party sequence and a troupe of Flying Malcolm X's to wrap up the movie.So in conclusion, If the character comes back, make it more interesting, let T-Pain do what he does best, and come back with more interesting characters.A disappointing but brutal 4 out of 10.

cheetahcarroll I was a pretty good video. The animation wasn't the greatest but the plot was pretty decent. I'd recommend it for a first view but I probably wouldn't watch it again any time soon. The plot had some good points to it that weren't typical of something you would get out of most Hip/Hop. The voice actors did a pretty good job. It was also cool that they had Kel Mitchell in it since I haven't seen him in anything lately. All in all I would give in an 8 out of 10. Not because it wasn't great but because it was lacking in some of the things that you would expect out of an animated movie but it did have some of the plot features that you don't soo to often in movies nowadays.
