WHAT'S THE STORY? Remember how Michael J. Fox left '50s audiences dumbfounded with scrotal-grabbing geetar w**k in Back To The Future? Here, hip-hoppers Outkast funk-up a '30s speakeasy joint in the period 'rap-jazz' drama that is Idlewild.
TO BE HONEST: Technically messier than Capone's spewed prison lunch, but well packed with some cracking ideas, meaning it'll be hailed a flawed masterpiece in years to come. We're pre-empting this with a glittery 4-stars!
ALSO FOR: James Cagney to driveby rival cronies in a hip-hop remake of White Heat.
