HARD KNOCKS THE SUBWAY EDITION

I was really interested in this as its a limited edition dvd, only 500 (legal) copies were made and I was curious to know what all the fuss was about, luckily the German branch of Spacehop.50g lent me a copy for review so here's what I think.

It makes a change to watch a dvd like this that features the same format of breaking into a yard or entering a tunnel that doesnt have the usual shaky camera, to dark to see, blurry footage. Instead the majority of this is really well shot, you can see that the guy behind the camera has thought out each section and there's a lot of planning gone into this dvd, the "actions" are filmed well, given the circumstances, but it's the bits inbetween that I like the most. The quality of the graff is impressive and consistant, featuring many differant artists and crews including, 35ers, Abis78, Acer, Acid, Amik, Azur, BAD, Bead, BSK, Burn, City, CMD, DGB, Dose, DRM, Drops, Dust, Ecsit, FCKW, Feat, Fery, FLS, Gamble, Hisk, HIV, Kaktus, Kird, Kitch, MRN, Nash, Pais, Plus, Puma, RBS, Rely, Roka, Roy, Shus, Siba, Sien, Skey, Skid,Smart, Soe, Sok, Tesa, TFZ, THC, Tin, Trus, Tuff, Tvisd, Type, Way, Zack. This is essentially two movies in one, the first concentrates on Berlins subway system while the secound deals with the MTA system of New York, allways good to see panels running there especially in 2008!! The run time is 1hour and 34 mins which i did think was a little bit long, but thats just because even if it was shot by Speilburg, there's only so much.... enter a yard, paint a train, leave yard, photograph in traffic, my mind can take It would really benefit from some commentary over the footage like in Dirty Handz 3. Without this it does get a bit boring, a train in a tunnel tends to look the same the world over, well worth a watch though.

Spacehop says 4 out of 5 Hopsta's. Don't watch on You Tube, BUY IT!!!
