Summary: Inside the World of Death Row
Review: This is a Great documentary......if you have ever brought a Death Row album, or a rap album for that matter, you will enjoy this inside look.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: very well put together documentary!
Review: this is a very good piece of film. they go into explicit detail to tell the complete story of death row records. the only thing they left out was pac and how suge set him up for murder. get this movie. it has some good footage of pac,snoop,dre,kurupt,....

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Well Put Together,however....
Review: This is by far the best documentary I've seen about Death Row or any of it's artists(tupac,snoop,ect.) HOWEVER,through no fault of their own,the producers could not get the rights to any of the Death Row artists songs to put in this documentary.
Therefore, the only known song played in this film is "Deep Cover" by Dre and Snoop. This documentary is still outstanding but I would've surely given it 5 stars if we heard some of many amazing tracks done by the artists of Death Row.
By the way, it was Death Row who would'nt allow any their tracks to be featured on this film.....Suge Knight....hahahaha.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: dramatic the stuff legends is made of
Review: this is the untold story of the rise and fall of deathrow records who has left their mark forever in music history this is very serious stuff includes interviews with suge knight, michael harris, and dave kenner. For folks who wanna learn about the rap game I recommend this video as a classroom and watch closely how suge rose to the top and then fell off and how interscope took his money and ran and left him in jail for 5 years don't expect no videos this is exclusive interviews and tells an important part of rap history and also features c delores tucker who ran campaigns against rap boy was she fake she did'nt care much for woman's rights ther truth was she wanted money and shows how when you come up everybody start looking at you like you have [lots of money] when there was plenty of rappers outside deathrow using profanity.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great insight into "the worlds dangerous rap group"
Review: this really is a well presented documentary on a controversial subject.the makers of this mustve had pretty thick skins to go and get interviews off of everyone they did,and present it the way they did.it certainly doesnt pull any punches about suge anyway.i really did learn a lot about death rows beginnings from this,and the mysterious harry o who helped bankroll death row originally.and thankfully,2pac is portrayed in the way he should be,and it goes some way to show how he changed from a political rapper to "thug life" rapper.a lot of this stuff you will know already,but a lot of it you wont.presented in first person narritive its consise and to the point.a few down points though,i got the feeling some of the interviewees were reading what they were saying off of idiot boards the producer had written.and you could tell dr dre didnt really want to talk about it much,he was trying to suck right up to suge on this.still,at least he wasnt wearing makeup,or was he?and snoops camp voice spouting a load of nonsense didnt help much either.but these are small points,the film is excellent.and the dvd extras make this an even better purchase.footage of 2pac suge and co leaving the boxing fight shortly before 2pacs murder is fascinating.i wonder what that guy whispered into his ear?probably,"you've only got one havent you,one of them was shot out".or maybe not.also,theres footage of death rows opening party,and a rubbish commentry.then again,ive yet to hear a good commentry.all in a great purchase,good value for money,and very entertaining.i definately suggest you buy it!!!! 4 out of 5.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The WHOLE story...
Review: This video is worth getting if you're a fan of the old Death Row. There is so much information and details about the rise and the fall of Death Row. It was interesting to see how Suge Knight went from being a regular bodyguard to being one of the music's worlds must notable names. The DVD traces Suge's history from being Bobby Brown's bodyguard to the infamous Vanilla Ice scandal. Not a single detail is missed on this DVD. There are also additional features aside from the Documentary, including an indepth Snoop Dogg interview. If you are interested in the deep history of Death Row, buy this DVD. If you're not a huge old school Death Row fan, it may be a little dull.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: If you think you knew the truth about Death Row...
Review: Welcome to Death Row is detailed in every aspect of looking into what really went on at Death Row Records. It also looks into the murder of Tupac Shakur and how he MADE Death Row Records. The only bad thing about this DVD is that Ruthless Records & Death Row Records refused to give music rights in the making of this documentary. This DVD is one of the best I've seen with 2Pac in it. It also has extended interviews, out-takes and if your looking for a DVD to keep you interested..this is the one. Even if you know nothing about Death Row you are going to love this one! And if you have doubts about how we rate it don't, get a copy now and see what all the fuss is about!
