I'd have said "Scarface" cause not only it was a great movie but also more inspiring to loads of hiphop artists than any other flick and sampled and imitated a 1000 times...

But as for movies with hiphop stars in em I gotta go with "Menace II Society". That's just the rawest and most impressing ghetto movie I've seen. A movie that actually surprised me was "Barbershop", great one too. "Boyz  In The Hood" is a classic too, but it don't come close to "Menace..." for me

All of those were wack. Not because Pac was in there it does make it a good movie. C'mon did u really enjoy those? or did u enjoy Tupac?

These are nothing special...

My vote goes for Menace, no doubt!

When you say "Hip-Hop" I have to think you are speaking about the culture, all the other movies would be referenced as "urban."

So the best "Hip-Hop" movie would have to be "Wild Style" heads who want to understand the culture as a whole needs to watch and study that, next would be "Style Wars" on the Graf aspect of the culture, then "Beat Street" and "Krush Groove" again for those who want an overall history of this rappin' thang.
