Critic Reviews

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

Formulaic but performed with some verve. Read full review

New Times (L.A.) Luke Y. Thompson

But there is a saving grace: Seemingly aware of how weak the material was, the filmmakers have filled it with wall-to-wall beautiful naked women in every other scene, complete with a little gratuitous lesbian action. It can't save the film, but it'll keep you from dozing off. Read full review

Keith Phipps

A singularly uncharismatic leading man, the paunchy, expressionless, frequently inarticulate Sigel makes an unintentionally comic impression as a character named, naturally, Beans. Read full review

Elizabeth Weitzman

The cinematic equivalent of a gangsta rap song, State Property is little more than a marketing tool for Roc-A-Fella Records. Read full review

Ronnie Scheib

Result is fairly good-looking video shot down by a hackneyed script, atrocious acting and a total lack of redeeming social value. Read full review

Paul Malcolm

It almost appears like a little thought went into this otherwise grim exercise in soullessness. Read full review

Dana Stevens

At the end the picture seems to acknowledge its own ludicrousness, but by then it, like Beans, is beyond rescue. Read full review

State Property 1, although a little bad compared to the sequel, was a good film. The soundtrack was good, and had an all hip hop star cast. The ending was the strongest scene out of the film when Beans, Baby By, and D Nice shot u the courtroom and they all got shot

It's a shame that Beans, a good talented mc, participates in this shameless film.

Been Rich All My Life is something like the "Ballets Russes" of tap dancing. I'm delighted to report that the similarities include the fact that the Belles are transmitting their improvisatory "rhythm tap" style to generations of younger dancers.

Not an original thought in sight and acting so awful it borders on comedy. In a nutshell: embarrassing.

If there was ever created a worse movie please inform me so i could conclude to tell you that it was not worse than this, nothing is worse than this, this not only brings the standard of all movies so far down it makes the sequel of this movie seem like the godfather, but it also sets a If there was ever created a worse movie please inform me so i could conclude to tell you that it was not worse than this, nothing is worse than this, this not only brings the standard of all movies so far down it makes the sequel of this movie seem like the godfather, but it also sets a cornerstone of all mankind as being a pathetic race of redundant protoplasm.… Expand
