this is the best movie of all time. why? because Mr. t says so foo. hey uh Ricky uh bobby uh hey you wanna see some break Danzig. don't drink the beer no no no. and now for a fashion show Tina and Tina are from Sana Bernadina. STAY COOL JEFF. Mr.t shockingly cannot play a cello. i tried to insert some of Mr' t's awesome vernacular but they have a automatic spell check. absolutely ludicrous merges into the best word of all time i'll call it OK well i can't use fake words, so i guess you'll have to check it out yourself. . this movie makes about as much cents as my review. GO TO EBAY, FIND THIS MOVIE, DUST OFF THE VHS PLAYER AND LAUGH YOUR SWEET LITTLE TUCKUS OFF. i love you.

"Hey you, you with the teeth"...any film beginning with the incomparable Mr. T addressing you in such a way can safely be deemed a classic. If you haven't yet had the privilege of seeing "Be Somebody", your life is sadly incomplete. "T" solves all of the social ills plaguing, not just the youth of the 80's, but all of mankind in only 52 minutes; can you think of anyone else who could do that? The mere suggestion is "absiludicrous". Parents, there is no doubt that you want your children to grow up to be somebody. Do them the ultimate favor, show them that you truly love them, and watch this video together as a family. Remember, if you don't, they may wind up being someone's fool.

This video is hard to come across, but if you do, snag it. It is too funny. Mr T. teaches kids the importance of being honest, dealing with anger, and of course, the art of RAP. "We all have a rap," he says, "we just have to find it." Wow. What a profound statement. It's almost as profound as the wonderful wardrobe and hairdressing departments. If you find it "foolish" to laugh at Mr. T singing and rapping, you can always laugh at the classic 80's getups.

This is a truly inspirational video that brings Mr.T's collective talents to the small screen. In this video Mr.T raps, dances, sings, and acts, all using his classic T-style. He teaches you to respect other people, whether they are male, female, black, white, or your mother. Mr.T also inspires all, young and old, to get up off of their behinds and start working out. After watching this video I now have the motivation and the drive to get my own icecream sandwich on hot days, instead of asking my mother to get me one. Way to go Mr.T! You turned this ground chuck into a london broil.
