    Another load of talentless dribble

    How can anyone actually call this trash entertainment is totally beyond me. Yet people on the left hand side of the Atlantic seem to think this is quality entertainment. It has the makings of documentary on low lifes in the USA rather than providing any source of mind stretching viewing.The whole story line is so weak it barely gets moving during the film. How can anyone invest money into this kind of production because surely you can only make so many of these god awful films.

    I did my best to try and see where this film was going and what it was actually trying to achieve but I have to say don't waste your time with this film, you can do a lot with your life in the time it takes to watch this.

    Not as bad as expected

    Okay let me be the voice of reasoning for this title. I'm sure everyone is going to say it was crappy and had a horrific plot and bad acting and yada yada yada. But coming from a guy who's watched movies with a horrific plot and laughable acting. This movie was pretty good. The acting was decent. No it wasn't Oscar worthy but for the obvious lack in budget it casted pretty well. Now I will admit it had some very huge plot holes but if you can get past the plot holes then you can really appreciate this movie. Would I watch it again, well no but it's worthy of watching it once. People expect blockbuster Hollywood movies with a blockbuster video budget. It's never going to happen. But for the budget it performs well.

    Fantastic, one of a kind

    Yes the movie feels like it was made in college, too bad. From the first scene we are intoduced to Michael Kenneth Williams' character, the biggest name in Rap. Could smoke you verbally with just the music playing in his head. His acting is always so entertaining

    Then we are introduced to another actor from the Wire, Michael Mosely. Known for playing Walter Reed the handless soldier in "Late Editions".

    Boom next known actor is Manchild. Known for playing Junior Sopranos inside man within the phsych ward. Every "hot" rapper is in danger of being killed by a known serial killer.

    Are the murders a result of a Rap beef? Or something more personal....

    One of the worst movies ever made

    I started to watch this movie with no expectations at all, still it actually managed to disappoint me.

    You're Nobody 'til Somebody Kills You is basically a film about a serial killer killing a bunch of hip hop rappers one at a time, with a small knife by the way. The plot is incredibly awful, but it gets worse. The actors are as credible as a clown fish would be portraying the same roles, the script is horrible and a baby straight from kindergarten would do better in cinematography. The murder scenes looks like a Z-budget slasher film from the 70's.

    Unless this movie is a parody of everything great about movies, then this is one of the worst examples of filmmaking ever. Don't spend a second with this movie, since it won't work as sleeping medicine either, since the first five minutes will make you cry and scream all night over the truly horrible filmmaking.
