Ryan TerMolen Rhythm and Rhyme Review

Overall I really believe the documentary captured the essence of what poetry was and is now and how it compares to hip hop, I believe the students really poured their heart out into their poetry and expressed themselves in their own words which is what poetry is about. I thought the documentary was great and as an ETHS student thought it was great to see my peers, classmates and friends doing something they feel deeply about, some of these kids I would've never guessed had these things to say. Hip-hop culture is something relatively new to this generation and I feel as if hip hop and poetry are one in the same but one without a beat. The documentary was great and I felt that it was done very well, I know it is just a rough cut however some of the footage was a bit shaky and not that clear, I hope in the real cut the shaky footage can be settled and steadied, however other than a minor issue of shaky footage I thought it was done very well                                                                                                   and it is ice to see fellow ETHS students doing what                                                                                                     they feel passionate about.
