Death of a Dynasty Ratings & Reviews
DVDTalk.com
Scott Weinberg
Death of a Dynasty is fun stuff, and this is coming from a guy who hasn't bought a hip-hop CD since NWA broke up.
FilmStew.com
Todd Gilchrist
Truly terrible for plenty of reasons, not the least of which being Damon Dash's barely competent directing.
Philadelphia Daily News
Damon C. Williams
Death of a Dynasty accomplishes what it set out to do -- to make a few laughs.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Sure, having bottles of Armadale vodka crammed into every other shot could be read as a pointed swipe at crass endorsements of luxury liquors. But when you know Armadale is owned by Roc-A-Fella, it looks a lot like crass product placement.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
This narcissistic mockumentary is less a film than a full-length promotional video for Roc-a-Fella Records mogul/director Damon Dash.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
A mockumentary that veers unsteadily between satire and an infomercial for Dash's Roc-A-Fella records.
E! Online
E! Staff
Definitely funny as the hip-hop world pokes fun at itself and others, but it's frequently pointless, especially as the "plot" unfolds.
New York Times
Anita Gates
Watching Damon Dash's playful movie is like entering a room where a large, too noisy party is going on and never fully adjusting to the dark or the din.
Washington Post
Richard Harrington
Death of a Dynasty is, like the music it parodies: aggressive, over-the-top, louder than life and in your face.
Christian Science Monitor
David Sterritt
Dash is a good sport in poking barbed fun at the PR machinations of today's music business.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
There is a funny movie to be made from the outrageous egos and excesses of rap music. Death of a Dynasty is not that movie.
Village Voice
Peter L'Official
In Dynasty, even caricature becomes commodity.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
An amiably raucous, scorched-earth mockumentary about the Roc-A-Fella hip-hop kingdom under the proprietorship of CEO Damon Dash.
