They may be every parent's nightmare, but the rap all-stars that comprise the 2000 Up in Smoke tour (smoke, as in blunts and chronic--or marijuana, for the uninitiated) are incredibly popular with a surprising cross-section of young music lovers today. This two-hour-plus DVD captures most of one concert by the four rappers who joined together for this tour: Ice Cube, Eminem, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg. If you aren't a fan of the music, don't expect this to change your mind or even to help you understand these rappers' appeal. For the devoted, however, you get heaping doses of four of the hottest acts working, in a show that includes lavish production values as well as plenty of backstage footage and photographs as extra features. Given the slice-and-dice editing (no shot, it seems, is allowed to last more than two seconds), it's hard to get a fix on them or a true picture of what the show looked like if you happened to be sitting in the audience. --Marshall Fine

 Great Concert December 18, 2000

This was the most succeceful tour in hip-hop history, now even I know why. This DVD features the 2 hour concert with behind the sceans intermission sequances. There is also about 30 minutes worth of other behind the sceans extra stuff. If you are a fan of Snoop Dogg and/or Dr. Dre, you must get this DVD, If you are an Ice Cube fan, but not a big Dre/Snoop fan, you may be somewhat dissapointed because Ice Cube gets less attension in this concert than others. If you are an Eminem fan, and ONLY like songs like "The Real Slim Shady", don't buy this, youll hate it. In other words, Snoop and Dre get the most attension on this video, and if you are a fan of them, youll love this concert. One last thing, on a parental rating system, I would rate this NC-17, so if you are easily offended, dont buy this DVD. The reason why I rated it 5-stars, is because I loved this show, and for under 20 bucks, its a great bargain.

If you was one of the unlucky ones that couldnt get tickets to one of the hottest rap tours ever, This DVD is the next best thing.. It puts you in the front row to one of the most exciting one of the most elaborate stage shows ever staged.. The DVD takes you on a 2 hour musical experience unlike no other you would witness in any genre of music.. The DVD also includes some behind the scene with the artists to give it that close and personal feel .. The Sound and picture quality is superb.. The Concert was film in Boston, Mass but there as other footage from other cities on the tour dealing with talkin with fans, People that work behind the scene during the tour etc.. All n All gives you a very in-depth look of the tour and what goes on behind the lights and music.. Highlites of the DVD Dr. Dre/ Snoop and Eminem.. Ice Cube portion of the DVD is also pretty good .. If there is a minor criticism to this DVD it would be that some of the performances were shortening.. But nevertheless if you are a fan of Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Ice Cube this is the DVD to get.. If you were lucky enough to attend the show you want to relive the excitement get this DVD you will not be disappointed

This is the dvd of the summer of 2000 tour by Dre, Em, Cube, and the gang. It features perfomances by Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg, Kurupt and all the other crazy kids who headlined this tour. The production values are top notch excellent sound and picture quality. There are various extras and some behind the scenes footage as well. This is a great DVD for fans of gfunk and anyone who attended or missed last summers phattest tour.
Best Hip Hop DVD Yet April 13, 2003

Ice Cube, Eminem, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are together in this show that'll make you sing, that'll make you laugh, tha'll make you enjoy rap as much as you do.
If you are a hip hop fan, I don't have to say how much worth this DVD is... Ice Cube (I didn't know him before this DVD) introduces himself in a very cool way, with a bunch of cool songs. Eminem (the reason I bought this DVD) doesn't have that big production, no big introduction, but his songs are great, mainly from Marshall Mathers LP album (The Real Slim Shady, Criminal, Kill You, Marshall Mathers...). And then you can check out Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, two hip hop legends, together. This is the best show I've ever seen.. They have an intro video (who was banished from everyone under the age of 17) which rocks... I can't even describe.
The image is great, cameras change quickly... It's like a 150 minute videoclip. The 5.1 Surround Sound is awesome too, you feel like you are in the middle of the crowd, seeing these hip hop legends singing. Plus there are lots of backstage scenes, so you can see what stars do backstage...
It's explicit because there is a lot of cussing and a lot of naked women. Just that...
The extras are mainly the trailer, Snoop Dogg talking, you know, nothing big.. But just to watch this show is a reason to buy it. Highly recommended. Five stars, extra fun for hip hop fans, lots of fun to non-hip hop fans.
