A film not unlike the music it celebrates: Vibrant, eclectic, loud, rhythmic, and powerful.

See Scratch for the history, see Scratch for the music, see Scratch for a lesson in scratching, but, most of all, see it for the passion.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 16, 2003

Engaging documentary.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 11, 2002

Even as it pays earnest homage to turntablists and beat jugglers, old schoolers and current innovators, Scratch is great fun, full of the kind of energy it's documenting.

Pray has really done his subject justice.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 3, 2002

Pray's subjects can wander off into arcane Dennis Miller-esque rants, but he manages to hit the high points and most of the major personalities.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 20, 2002

You don't need to be a hip-hop fan to appreciate Scratch, and that's the mark of a documentary that works.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Jul 9, 2002

Those moviegoers who would automatically bypass a hip-hop documentary should give "Scratch" a second look.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 20, 2002

A determined and carefully made but ultimately unsatisfying effort.

It's a story of turntablism that will appeal to both newcomers and DJ diehards.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | May 31, 2002

It's all stitched together with energy, intelligence and verve, enhanced by a surplus of vintage archive footage.

| Original Score: A- | May 30, 2002

A nifty portrait of a minor, but intriguing, element of popular culture.

| Original Score: B | May 29, 2002

One of those terrific documentaries that collect a bunch of people who are enthusiastic about something and then figures out how to make us share their enthusiasm.

Illuminating if overly talky documentary.
