Simply Perfect

Lack of good storyline.

good back-story, and good acting

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

This movie is a landmark film. It may well serve as the most important tool available to young white males to illustrate how incredibly stupid they look trying to be black. I firmly believe that if this movie is shown in schools there may yet be hope for a future for Caucasians everywhere. Stoop Dogg was instrumental in making this film and that's important to note due to the fact that he's come far enough in his career that he no longer needs to placate young "wiggers" by reassuring them that they don't look stupid trying to act black, and has gone so far as to make them look stupid directly and make a movie about it. This film did not enjoy wide distribution due to the entertainment industry's fear that white people would stop buying C rap music and they would lose those dollars. I applaud Fox's decision to distribute this film and will make every effort to support them in all of my movie watching choices in the future.

I love this movie. It hits the nail on the head portraying suburban white kids trying to be thugs by imitating rappers from MTV. You tend to find more of these kids in backwoods towns and deep in the suburbs than in the inner city and this movie seems more like a non-fiction representation of that ridiculous subculture. They even address the fact that these kids weren't dressing the same years ago or listening to the same music. Basically, acting like these kids is similar to deciding to dress like a cowboy because you start to like country music.Anyone who doesn't like or appreciate this movie - the joke's on you, thug life with a North Carolina jersey.

whiteboys, where to start with you? let's see here. first off: this film was a really great idea, and seeing as how it came out in 1999 i have to say it's ahead of it's time. in today's world where hip hop and rap rule the radio stations and kids strive as hard as they can to be "street" this film portrays that and portrays is pretty accurately. three farm boys who long to be more than farm boys, a story that has been seen before in movies like "a river runs through it" where a rural boy grows up and chooses to be a journalist but still keeps in tough with his roots. but this takes that idea, and skews it. it takes the idea and twists it in such a way that the viewer is left thinking that the director is racist, and the movie is stupid. and yet the story of kids growing up on the farm and leaving their rural roots is a story that is played over and over again, and never once really turned in such a way as this. the film takes pop culture, transposes it on these three boys, and then lets them loose. and so they ride about sippin 40's and wearing fubu. selling fake cocaine to people in night clubs and just trying to be as close to "high rollas" or "big pimps" as they can. and the fact is the characters really do show some real rapping talent and show that they can "bust a flow" but at the same time the film shows how awkward these teens are and how alientated they are in a world of trucks, and cornfields these three wear baggy pants and long to drive blinged out tractors. the film. though it is seemingly a comedy, to me seems to be so much more than that. it seems to be a lot deeper than just a simple comedy and puts forth a story that albeit sounds pretty dumb and even is pretty dumb at first glance is really much, much deeper than just a simple comedy, and much, much deeper than the typical "break away from the farm and follow your dreams" transcendentalistic stuff that is seen in so many other films. in the end i think whiteboys is a great movie, and is terribly underrated.

This could actually have been a good movie. Instead it was a bizarre movie.Whiteboys actually had a point; but it waited until the last 10 minutes to make it. In fact, the last 10 minutes would make a good music video.But by the time you get there, you don't much care any more. Because you're so tired of Flip being such a one-dimensional human being.It's probably funnier if you've already drunk a couple of 40s ... but then, who does?The rest of this comment has been added. Because IMDB insists on a minumum of 10 lines. But sometimes. A half dozen is more than enough. Like Whiteboyz.
