This documentary film seeks to explore how the Pimp game is synonymous with the power game.  Through the use of animation, satire, and archival footage, this media sensation makes you smile your way out of the Matrix.  The creative form of the film is quite ground-breaking.  It combines smart and cool in a unique way.  Replicas of this film will be hitting the college scene very soon.  The only major drawback for the film,  is that at times, the producers did not assume the viewer is smart.  Therefore, the narrative sections come off slightly corny.  But nonetheless, the film is quite bold and inspirational in nature.  This film most definitely needs to be on your bookshelf next to Pimp, by Iceberg Slim.

Ghetto Physics features exclusive interviews with a number of notable entertainers and thinkers, including Dr. Cornel West, Ice-T, KRS-One, Too Short, John Perkins and Norman Lear.
