      eazeW3 Legendary Urban movie you wouldn't understand if you ain't from the streets or ain't up to date with hip hop culture Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/27/23 Full Review eazyedd2 I'm from Philly this was a hood classic movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/23/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best movies of 2002. A cult classic. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member It's trash as hell. The acting sucked, the camera quality sucked, and the cast was done mad dirty. Beanie Sigel and Jay Z deserve better. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review dustin d State Property is a cheap, amateurishly written, filmed and acted rap video-turned-movie. However, it does have its moments, particularly Beanie Sigel's more intense scenes, and even the laughable parts are entertaining. It is dumb, but it is also lively. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review c v It was not hard to imagine what this film was going to be like with a glance at the cast, but once the over the top violence starts rolling ( from a man getting beating to death with a bat to Beans gettinh shot up in a fantasy sequenece at the end ) it's hard to turn away from the thuggery that is "State Property", making you want to see every scene filled with drugs and prostitutes and hear every word Jay-Z mumbles in the 30 seconds he graces this film that deserves a cult following, but was obviously treated as a vehicle to sell CDs and clothes. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Chris Vognar Dallas Morning News A film of empty, fetishistic violence in which murder is casual and fun. Rated: D Feb 28, 2002 Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post Basically a static series of semi-improvised (and semi-coherent) raps between the stars. Rated: 0/4 Jan 21, 2002 Full Review A.O. Scott New York Times Lacks the visual flair and bouncing bravado that characterizes better hip-hop clips and is content to recycle images and characters that were already tired 10 years ago. Rated: 0/5 Jan 19, 2002 Full Review Mark Halverson Sacramento News & Review Rated: 1/5 Aug 7, 2008 Full Review Michael Dequina TheMovieReport.com Rated: 2/5 Jan 1, 2007 Full Review Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 16, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
