I think that drumline was an excellent movie. I would give it a 4 out of 5. Maybe my view is different because i'm a minor but, i feel that the movie showed everything that we (teenagers) go throw in our life. If u dig deeper than just what u see and reflect this on our everyday life, i think that u get a totally different picture.

There have been many rave reviews for "Drumline" from family and friends beyond the drums.
More children have come home being energized about doing their homework and studying,so they can have a better future thru education,not just having a good time.
Most definitely the feel of the "Drumline",and acting skills of Mr.Cannon.
A combination of all of the above has had many returning to see the movie 2,3,maybe more times!
Packed theater.
I will go Monday to see the movie I have anxiously awaited to enjoy,no doubt in my mind when I saw Mr.Cannon.
Now, I am looking for Gross ticket sales.

My rating 5 out of 5!

yo drumline the movie waz off the hook man it inspired me to drum and it did some good but my school won't pick me up cuz i am black what uo wit dat

Drumline was hot i give a 10 i wonder if there will be an drumline 2 or 3 that movie make me want to go to college just for the football games and halftime and that some shit!!!!!

My name is Toree and I heard that there making a drumline 2. I also heard that smily high school from houston Tx is going to be in it. I'm in the band myself and What I want to know is how they got into the movie.I also want to know if there looking for anymore bands. Because if they are I would make a better suggesstion than smily, I'm from beaumont Tx and I'm in the coldest band you'll ever see my school name is central high school. Weve beat smily at our first battle of the band this year. So please who's ever picking the bands for drumline 2 e-mail Toree from beaumont and see if you can give central a chance.

DrumLine was an excellent movie. It was filled with good emotions of love and triumphant skills. The movie teaches a lesson in itself that we all can apply to our own life. Well Done! It puts you in the shoes of a "know it all" musician, and shows you the lessons he learns in life.

ExCelLenT!

that movie was very good. i hope there is a drumline 2.

I think Drumline was a great Movie. I think it captured the things teenagers go through with out so much voilence and profanity. I give it a 5 out of 5.

Being in the band, and knowing how life is in it, Drumline is by FAR one of the BEST movies i have ever seen, and i am a very big movie critic. The artistic acting, the performance of the different very talented bands, the awesomely selected cast, just made this movie arguably the best movie of the year.

Yep! I understand your opinion. The movie was good and it did carry a traditional storyline. For people who love black college bands, it was awesome. Regardless of anyone's opinion...it (the movie) made a lot more money than any of us did posting on this page. Amen.

I think drumline was a AWESOME movie. I loved it! All the people that were in this movie were great. I loved music before and this movie only made me love it more. I hope they make a 2nd movie but it will be hard to beat the 1st movie. Drumline was by far the best movie of the year. I own the movie and atleast watch it 1ce everyday. Me and my friend thought this movie was the greatest and I have yet to see a movie as good. So brovo to all the people who helped put this movie together.

qUISIERA TENER LAS PELICULAS DE DRUMLINE

DRUMLINE, well what can i say, i went over to Las Vegas on holiday and bout this dvd, it insired me to go back to basics at school and learn to play the snare drum,but comin from the uk it was hard, no schools wanted to help me out, so i bought a snare practise pad from rowland and a dvd from there site, ive been playin now for 2 years. i took my snare drum practise pad into college and wanted to just go into a room and play so i did, i played it too loud and before i new it i had a crowd of people listen to me, my college music teacher told me to play it on a real snare drum so i did, it wa fantasic. Later in the college year my teachers told me to apply for different colleges for drumming, not knowin that the teachers and local comuntity had started a collection to get me into an amercan college. i recieved a letter through the poost offerin me a place and ive never looked back since. im 19 now and moved back to the uk after spenidn a year in amercia fantastic fun just waitin to show the college what i ave learned.. Please bring out a drumline 2 i wana see what happens with devon miles...!!! DRUMLINE IS INSPIRING. !!!!

Hey, i live in Nassau, Bahamas. I watched dis Movie when it came out in 2002 and man was it carryin on bey. Dis movie was tight, am in a band so i really was clinged to da screen. Am in grade 9 and am 13, and for my English Literature Home-Work we had to pick a movie we watched to do a report on and i chose dis Movie........becauze it was da last movie dat i watched in da theaters lol(so i aint been to da movies in a long time) and becauze i loved it!!!!!!!!! i hope dey do make a drumline2 cauze i wanna see how dat ga turn out but overall dat movie was really great, representin da bands! DA MOVIE WAS OFF DA CHAINZ!!!!!!!

I HOPE THERE IS A DRUMLINE 2 BECAUSE I LOVE DRUMS

drumline waz a awsome movie and nick waz lookin so fine i think they should make a 2nd movie that would be off the hook!!!

Icould rate this movie a thumbs up... I can say that this was a grea movie that iv ever seen, because it makes me realize of being hard headed!!!! Nothing to say, though it's tru, it's really a beautiful Movie!! At all, I always remember that seeing a movie like this can help a hard-headed person and lose it's pressure!!!!! Huh!!!

Drumline inspired me to play in the band. I first played drums but then i saw all the other instruments and know i play percuison clarinet and alto saxophone. I hope they come out with another drumline and hope they show more instruments.

here are my thoughts.
I was drum captain of both my high schools(before i moved)and after watching this movie i wanted to puke. Ya its got drum parts ya its got some cool scenes, but the maority of the movie is bogus.Let me ask you have any of you ever heard of dci or dca?thats where its at. its takes true discipline to perfect youre art thats what being a drummer is all about.This movie dosent show that, its says make alot of flashy moves and youll always win.Any body reading this post i hope will write me an email,because id like to show you what real drumming is about or check out this website gulfcoastsound.org Its the site of a senor corp, with drum spots still available. its in houston texas were having drum practise this sat, i hope any one who wants to join will e-mail the corp or get in touch with me.DRUMMER OF ALL AGES AND ABILITIES WELCOME.

I loved the movie Drumline. I'm a drummer myself. I've been playing for almost 7 years now. I go to Stephen Decater High School in Berlin MD. I also play set for the jazz band. My band director said that I am the first girl in the school to play the drumset for jazz band. In marching band I play the snare. Many people say I'm the best that they have at school. I think it was tight how on the movie we got to listen to other bands.I can't wait to see another Drumline type movie.

Drum line i say Drum line baby hehe what a cool movie eh! i want a part 2 supah cool inspired movie the best ehehehe!! i say GREAT!! (-_-) soory im late dudz 2002 realese i reply 2005 hahaha funny eh! but cool classic and modern cool!! of the roof

Drumline The Movie huh...??? Well,...I can say that it was a great movie, and caused alot of people to join HBCU/HBHS marching bands, BUT it gave people a FALSE perception of what those/these bands actually are. They didn't manage to show you the blood, sweat, and tears that it takes to get one of these bands together. I still feel that they could've mad this movie better, and if they plan on doing a "Drumline 2", do it right this time. I'm a REAL musician/PERCUSSIONIST (notice how I didn't say "drummer"

dis is g4 just tellin u dat drumline was da best movie i had saw. but if yall make a drumline 2 e-mail me cuz im one of da most cold bloodest drummerz in moncks corner s.c. so if yall make it, just email me and tell me if there is any auditions or sumthin for the movie so peace.

G4

very good to play as a taen

You man, first off on ther movie, it was a good movie I liked the concept and it really gave SOME (not all or enough) insite on the world of a marching band;BUT! first off Nick Cannon can't even really drum, if you watch the movie and pay attention to there hands you'll see that on some parts there sticks don't even hit the drum. most of the Cadisies they played were hardly collage matterial too, I'm a fresh man in High school (SMHS Stone Mountain High) and I can already play every Cadise off of that movie on every instrament easily( including the snair parts). If you acually read the credits you'd know that some of the collage bands was made up of DEKALB COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. I am an accompliced Percussionist of stone mountain High(ATL GEORGIA) (NOT DRUMMER; Anyone who use the fraise "drummer" I already know that they sux and I wouldn't even waist my time Roasting them). also for all you people who think that you band is acually "good"....... WAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA, I would love to see you try and come compete with atlanta HIGH SCHOOL marching bands, you won't stand a chance, for those who don't believe me check out the REAL world of marching band at www.showtimemag.com . I would love to see a Drumline 2 BUT I ask that they'd atleast cast people who ACUALLY PLAY PERCUSSION instead off actors who just move there arms and sticks to a PRERECORDED drum Cadise.

Drumline was great, i loved A&T. Their Danceline was the best!! But all Seniors Class of 2008 rule. Also Minden High School's Band of Pride in Minden, Louisiana is the best band in the land!!!

imsorry....i used to agree w all of you but once i really got into music...you arent a drummer unless you have the gift to read write hear etc music...this movie only made battling other drumlines illegal at my school...also in a real drumline you have to pass before you play, and actually know how to play....not fake it w a double who can play....yup....mr nick cannon isnt a real drummer... maybe to the level of a freshman in high schoool....(a slow one)

First of all the movie was hot! Nick Cannon was cold on them drums. I want to be just like him in drums. I play for the drumline for lawton,oklahoma band. I just want to ask will there be a drumline2. If so make this one way tighter then the last one. You feel me holla at cha boy.

I like the movie Drumline. That is my 2nd favorite movie. I like the movie because I like to play the drums and play the drums for my high school. I like when they play the songs and the movie isnt boring. There are no other drum movies like this. I dont even think there are even any drum movies @ all like this one.

I think that the movie was great. It showed the things and the pressure that is on everyone including the musicians and directer. I give it a 4 out of 5

Drumline was good. It reflects how band life is. However...the bands from predominantly African American schools are not the greatest marching bands out there. There are huge differences, pros and cons, whatever you want to call it. These types of bands are more for show, and rely on music selection and fancy marching. They lack control because of this (high stepping as opposed to regular marching). Field formations are very very basic and a lot of times, they are spent in a stationary position. If you compare this to the national drum and bugle corps, you'll notice that they have complex field formations, intricate music selections, and more demanding shows. The only problem is that a lot of these bands use very "dry" selections, and although they are technically proficient, they don't have entertaining pieces.

Go to Youtube.com and look up "DCI" to see what I mean...

Stop Hating Drumline was tight and you know it Drumline 2 is gone be that plus 10 time more. Please hurry up and make Drumline 2 Nick Cannon we waiting on you make it happen.

Well drumline is one of my all time favorite movie.I've watched it so many times I know it word for word...hey Nick when will Drumline 2 be coming out?? need a co-star?

Esta es una excelente pelicula.
Aqui en El Salvador a los pocos dias de su lanzamiento fue una gran cosa.
Aun ahora en dia muchas escuelas peromesen con sus candencias y han quedado ya como clasicos.
En todo El Salvador la mejor Banda q toco estos ritmos en el 2004 fue el Colegio: Liceo Britanico de Usulutan, y el Centro escolar Basilio Blandon, pero ahora en dia la BAnda q mejor interpreta todas las cadencias y canciones es la Banda Musical del Instituto Nacional de Usulutan. Ahora en dia ya se necesita de otr pelicula de estas, por que a aunmento la necesidad musicalidad internacionl.

i think drumline is the best movie i ever seen..

Hey, I heard they are making a DrumLine 2 is that true? And when is it going to come out?

I loved Drumline the movie. It was THE BEST MOVIE EVER!!!

I dont want to bring the page down, with my comment... But Drumline the Movie was only good at showing the life of a band member of a show band. Corps style marching/ corps style marching bands go through way more than show bands to get prepared. So really the movie only tells half a story of what BAND as a whole is really about.

Aside from that, Nick Cannon never played any of the hard licks in the movie, he had a hand double. And the drumlines were never clean except for parts of the drum battle with the opposing drumline.

The Bands in the Movie were pretty good, But the drumlines were inferior compared to those of DCI, DCA, WGI and High School Corps Style Marching Bands.

The movie was ok, but barely tells the story of band that people here says it does. I give it a -4.

p.s. A second drumline movie would be a disaster, even though I respect the smiley band, and their drumline *rumored to be in the next movie*, the first one was bad enough, making a second is just .... stupid.

Would the black people raving about how much they loved "Drumline" have loved it if it had featured a white drummer and rock music rather than a black drummer and hip-hop? (How do I know a lot of the comments on this page are made by black people? Names like Tashima, Aaron A.K.A LilRoma, Jamal, GEORGE PRICE A.K.A G4, and Jay-c are usually a big tip-off). And by the way, does "lil angle" know she is calling herself the point where two lines meet, and not the winged being from heaven? The thing from heaven is an ANGEL, not ANGLE.

I give Drumline a 5 out of 5. Shit that movie rocks! And somehow I managed to get on my school's drumline because of that movie. I play the snare (duh)

Oh also the music on the official site, ROCKS so much!!!! I wish I could play like that.

Drumline was a cool movies to go and watch. But @ the end Dr.Leee says "Want to give them a taste of what they going to get next year". So, Is there going to be a Drumline 2?

WHAT UP THAT MOVIE WAS TIGHT HOLLA BACK AT CHA GURL MUTTY HOLLA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...........

I though this movie was one of the best made it shows passion and teamwork what alot of us need in todays world. Yes i am in the band i am a snare drummer and this year i am ECHS Marching band DRUM MAJOR!!! Great movie

Drumline...what a horrible movie. Im in a college marching band and that movie is nothing like it. My rating for Drumline is a 1 out of 5. If there is a Drumline 2 in the future, I hope they get what goes on behind the scene and not some love story.
