Feels more like a collection of 10 or so interviews edited together than a full fledged documentary. American Pimp embraces pimp culture instead of exploring it, only briefly delving into topics like the history of pimps and goes more into their role as a cultural icon. Its worth watching for some of the unintentionally funny lines that the pimps say in the interviews but overall the "bland" outweighs the good in this.

Great doc explains everything you want to know and more with out missing anything in a pimps life. Its hard to be a pimp.

"There's no cut. Ain't no cut. I mean, what a b* want me to say? Y'know, when a h* come to me, when she locked up with that $5000 dollar bond, or that $10000 bond. I mean, what a b* want me to say? Well, b* because you gave me half, well now I can only give you half. Hell naw, i'm givin' u a hunn'ad percent; see thas why I gotsta be demandin' my hunn'ad percent, hunn'ad and ten percent, cuz i'ma give u a hunn'ad percent. I'ma come reach ya funky a*."

C-Note, talking about if he ever gets "rough" with his women.

The stuff these dudes say is so outrageous, but it's some real playa type ish on a level 50 cent only WISHES he could reach. And am I crazy, or should "R.P." and/or Dudley have a reality show by now. -

It makes me a little uncomfortable that the Hughes Bros. seem to hold these guys up as heroes, but it's an interesting subject and the movie certainly holds your interest.
