(0-5) (0 poor - 5 dope)
- Style Wars: No Comment because if you don't own this then this is the first graff video you need to go get, we don't carry it but if you don't already own it... go get it.. and if you're not going to buy it, then quit graffiti! (5)
- Dirty Handz: I was not expecting such a sick video to come out of Europe, but I seriously underestimated the European creativity and style. This dude narrates as he goes to most major European cities and destroys passenger trains after passenger trains! The narrator and the artists he meets up with puts most U.S. writers to shame especially when they travel to New York City and destroy the subway cars there and even do 4 whole cars! This video was really well put together and organized and I will watch this video again and again. Along with their graffiti Euro styles, the soundtrack in this video has European style too it, but that should be a given and is definitely not a minus.(4.5)
- FeelMode: It was good, most footage was shaky but had some dope video affects, live footage was pretty dope, but its showing its age and newer and better videos are coming out. Its time for a sequel or put this one to bed. The video had a pretty decent soundtrack(2.5)
- Future of Graffiti: Produced and directed from the one and only EAZ1, a former FX member. He helps to try and take the curious and inexperienced writer into the hard to reach world of burning! All of the tips and instructions are thorough and informative to anyone new to the game. If you've been around for a while and already have a good foundation then this video may be too basic. You may be able to pick up a thing or two but this video is really just for the inexperienced writers. It was really well put together and is one of the few out there with this level of professionalism. At an average price of around $28, I find it to be a little pricey and I wouldn't pay that much for a 'how to' video. Its given a 4 because of the high level of professionalism and how helpful this video is but the price of the video keeps it from going any higher.(4.0)
- Graff Core 2000: Within the first 10 minutes I thought this was going to be a pretty fresh video with all the hardcore New York City bombing; but thirty minutes in I was hoping it would end! It was just too much mind numbing bombing with no commentary, no story's, no background on the artists. One of the few things that caught my attention and any real interest was the short section that featured the late NACE and later in the viedo the former FX member SEW. For a video that had some pretty dope writers featured in it, seem to unsuspectingly drag on forever. Like the others this was just a graffiti video with just footage of people painting. Why watch a a video of people painting and bombing when one can go do it themselves!? It also become annoying when the makers of the video flashed their title every three minutes! The soundtrack was original and pretty fresh. I want to know why the bonus footage was left out of the video and put in as extra because it would have made the video SO much better! (2.5)
- Graffiti Artists: An indi film of two graffiti artist, or was it, the plot had nothing to do with graffiti and actually had to do with the boys struggle with his own homosexuality that he just so happen to be a graffiti artists, two thumbs way down! (1)
- Graffiti is Dead: I really liked this one and I wanted to give it a much higher rating if it just didn't get so slow! All of the bombing footage is SICK, especially when one dude does some day time bombing in a fenced in parking lot and destroys two NYC police bus's! Although the bombing footage was sick, it dragged at almost every live action footage! With that said, it was the same 3 or 4 artists over and over again. Props to the artists for getting up but I want to see more variety and watch dudes try and out do each other. The soundtrack was originally mixed but even that was slow and needed a more high adrenaline bombing sound. I would of enjoyed some more audio instead of having it all dubbed over by the music.(2.7)
- GraffLife: A pretty good graff video. Has some dope freights/walls/bombs. What I really liked about this video is its theme, its not just another watching dudes paint wishing you were them. A good soundtrack throughout as well.(3)
- GraffLife 2: A real dope graff video, a big step up from the first one. Again, I really like the theme that they keep with. Keeps exploring the lifestyle and the ins and outs along with the ups and downs of the game and interviews from those who live it. Picking up where the first one left off and out doing the first one. This video takes you further then the first video and gets more dirty with its interviews and topics. I liked the interview with the police officer and the topic of internet beef. It was really well put together with a dope original soundtrack. (4)
- Graffiti Verite' 5: A real breath of fresh air when it comes to a graffiti documentary. Not just another video of the same couple of dudes bombing and boring me. This video takes place in a town in Iowa that you probably never heard of which maybe will lose some of its interest but the attitudes and opions remind me a lot of those of early hip-hop. (3.7)
- GTV9: Had a hard time understanding what I was watching. Bombing was weak and just showed clips of graff shit from other videos and shit (1)
- Indecline, Worse then you Think: If you've seen their other DVDs you know you won't be disappointed... A real dope video that definitely keeps to their reputation. Doesn't have all graffiti but the other content is definitely ill and entertaining, One of my personal favorites (4.5)
- Lines Toughest 2: Fairly dope footage of rolling freight. Kind of seen this done before in many videos before (2)
- Lines Toughest 3: No Review
- Lines Toughest 4: A real dope benching video with commentary by KING157 with a real dope soundtrack throughout. For any serious bencher this wont let you down and will leave you wanting more; especially after watching the TLT #5 trailer. Also has a real dope feature of a photo gallery of a 100+ flix!(3.5)
- Piece By Piece: Not like any other graffiti video I've seen, a really well organized video on the history of graffiti in San Francisco that goes back to the early 80's. You don't have to be from or live in the bay area to appreciate or be entertained by this documentary. From the interviews of the artists who lived it; it was really informative and gave it to you straight. The directors really did do a good job at capturing the graffiti mentality and stayed structured in the different eras within the bay area's graffiti subculture. This is a pretty ill video for any writer or just someone who's interested in this criminal but highly artistic art form.(4.0)
- Quality of Life: An indi film that really tries to bring the audience into the life of a graffiti artist and the subculture. It was really well done, professional and cinematic. This is the first graffiti themed indi film that I've seen that is done right. I thought that both of the main characters, 'Heir' and 'Vain' really capture your average writers personal lives and evolution of their graffiti career with one taking his talent somewhere while the other kind of bums around. The ending was a little over dramatic but helped to complete the movie. I did enjoy watching a graffiti themed movie and recommend this for anyone who is tired of poorly put together documentary's and just want to watch a straight movie.(3.5)
- Sneak Attack vl2.: Definitely a dope DVD for the freight writer, has everything a freight writer would want to see. It drags at times, especially at the action scenes, but once you fast forward though those times it picks up again. At 1hour and 42min running time, you def get your moneys worth. A real dope original soundtrack mixed by SOE1 throughout the video. (3)
- Stolen Coats: I was pretty much bored throughout, has a moment or two, but the only thing that was dope about this was the extra footage of the train flying over the camera in tripy colors. (1.5)
- TATS CRU: One of the doppest crews to come out of New York City finally has their own video and wow, this video is humbling! You wont be disappointed while you are taken into a world of graffiti artists for hire! Fat Joe and DJ Kayslay (aka DEZ) give guest commentary on TATS CRU then and now while you watch TATS CRU progress through one of their murals at the Wall Of Fame; their finished products will blow your mind! One of the doppest graffiti videos out; it is professionally done and carries a real dope soundtrack throughout. Graffinc.com is proud to be one of the first to carry this video!(4.5)
- Teenagers from Mars: An acid trip. I definitely enjoyed watching this but I would of liked more graffiti scenes and less skits but thats only if you are looking for just a graffiti DVD. This is a hilarious video featuring the hair bra, emo cologne, and special appearances by Odorous of Gwar, Lamb of God. Watching REPAY get up EVERYWHERE was pretty sick along with other dope action footage. Special features was pretty funny especially the prank phone calls. These guys have no limit and I was definitely entertained. A dope soundtrack throughout(3)
- Teenagers from Uranus: Another acid trip. Definitely picks up where the first one left off. It had some dope graffiti scenes and interviews with the arrested Refuse who was featured in the first one. Live bombing was good but again I want more graffiti footage. The skits again were even more messed up then the first one but twice as funny. The driver license's left me rolling on the floor laughing. The extra features again were funny as well. But I'd have to say that I enjoyed the first one more. (3)
- Terror in the Burbs: A hardcore soundtrack was the best thing about this video. It was ok with an original concept but lacked and needed quicker action scenes, I mean theres only so long you can watch someone else paint and be entertained. It did showcase some dope writers and some dope pieces but lagged at times but otherwise was just ok. (2)
- The Art of Story Telling: From the guys who brought you Terror in the Burbs, you wouldn't know it. A much better video, my personal favorite graffiti video, had so much dope illegal action footage with day time bombing, heavens, freights, walls, and anything else a serious writer would want to see in a graff video. Also had so many dope writers and not just shots of their pieces but actually watching them in the act. You CANT get bored watching this and you will want to watch it again and again. Toward the end there was a guest appearance by ZEPHYR for a tribute to the late NACE as well. It had a dope soundtrack throughout, I want a sequel! (4)
- War 1: No review
- War 2: A real ill graff video, a good video for anyone into graffiti and who's not... real entertaining and can be watched again and again with a good soundtrack (4)
- War 3: Have you seen War2? then you've pretty much seen War3, a little disappointed but still a decent video. I guess I was just expecting the next level which would of been hard to do I guess. (3)
- Write and Unite: A professionally put together graff DVD that shows the biggest cities here in the States, Mexico and Europe has to offer. I haven't seen a more professional video. Some dope live bombing, dope pieces at some of the worlds best gatherings, and featuring some of the most prolific writers!(4)
