Movie Reviews of DJ Qbert's Wave Twisters
Movie Review: Wave Twisters is literally out of this universe!
Summary: 5 Stars
On the Strength: Visualization of DJ QBert's kinetic debut album is without a doubt, the hottest Hip-Hop film to date, and certainly a one of a kind. With vinyl as his canvas, and two turntables as brushes, QBert has managed to paint a timeless masterpiece that is sure to enthrall b-boy enthusiast for decades to come. He is undoubtedly the Picasso of modern-day turntablism. Illustrator Doug Cunningham's characters are by far the illest bunch of deranged outcasts ever assembled on screen. When Lord Ook (a cross between your mom's old rag-doll, and Pinhead from Hellraiser) learns that the Wave Twister has resurfaced, he calls upon his number [guy], the Redworm (a baby donned in a Mexican wrestlers mask, with a red parasite protruding from his naval) to retrieve it. The Redworm unleashes his psycho army of "Chinhead" motorcycle thugs, (I ain't even gonna' try to explain) on the Dental Commander's mother ship (a city sized '63 Impala). The Dental Commander retaliates by releasing his own army (a band of custom lowrider fighter ships, ammoed with spray-paint cans as rockets) for a high flying, psychedelic, inner-galactic dogfight. Wave Twisters will shuttle you to the edge of sci-fi adventure, and hold you there, dangling atop a root canal of musical and cinematic brilliance.Movie Review: but is it art?

hey folks, i never thought i'd be one of those guys who shills for some movie or video on amazon but hey, i was wrong... ok, dj q-bert has long been held in high esteem by many a wanna be turntablist extraordinaire. and now he's come through (not without a little help from his friends) with the visuals to match his turntables on acid sound. wave twisters deserves a worldwide release and a place in the pantheon of many a cinemaphile. play it at half speed and you've got the perfect companion for those nights when you can't keep your bowl glowing orange and your dayglo pink floyd posters aren't cutting it. hey who knows, you might even find yourself digging through vinyl stax next time you're at the record store...Movie Review: Super Fun Vid

I had no idea what to expect. I saw a small little blip of recommendation somewhere & since i love anime & Hip Hop, i figured this might be a good x-mas present to myself. What a surprise! It is excellent for the year it was made.
The sound track & images of scratch DJ's preserve a lifestyle many of us experienced as we grew up. The animation might be considered a little rough or amatuerish - but this in fact contributes to the over-all vitality of the disc. If you have enjoyed the various animated music videos down thru the years & have an appreciation for Japanese anime, you will find this a worthwhile addition to your collection. It is quirky & fun!

i have yet to hear the soundtrack that accompanies this tripped out film. i watched it with the sound off at a local club. it stands alone as a sensory trip. the images are intense and the colors are great. the characters are eerie and humorous all at the same time. if you want something odd and a little disturbing, but totally thought provoking... get this dvd. i am a fan of q bert's. i did not even know this was his project. he is the godfather of battle scratching. he has great style and he is a pioneer in the art of the dj. get it for the collection and get it for the heads who love visual art. cmon amazon send me this thing so i can hear it too.Movie Review: Masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
This has most or all of the music for DJ Qbert's album of the same name. There is animation for every song, which creates sort of bizzare story as the DVD goes along. The animation is not brilliant but is does go perfectly with each piece of music and the characters have a hip, cool style as do the vehichles they ride around in. This is truly one of the most all time greatest "hip/hop-DJ" DVDs ever. I can't imagine any one who likes this type of music that would not fall in love with this DVD and watch it over and over.
