What was a great idea for a documentary becomes a lazy mess lacking in investigation ("there are no white pimps") and seemingly obsessed with image and using the word "bitch". They could have interviewed more pimps who are active now, and at worst interviewed more hookers about their relationships with their pimps. Hard issues like viloence are glossed over and in the end one has to wonder if this is a documentary or a weekend film by guys who loved Starsky and Hutch. I hope this film encourages somebody to really do a documentary on pimping.
