aka: chekeraccho “Check it Out, Yo!” is nothing you haven’t seen before, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying it. A mostly innocuous teen comedy about three directionless male high school chums who decide to form a hip-hop group in order to get chicks, and their tomboy female buddy who tags along, “Check It Out, Yo!” has a lot in common with the recent spate of Japanese teen comedies that seek to inspire by using an external form (jazz music in “Swing Girls”, synchronized swimming in “Waterboys”) as a hook. And like those other movies, director Rieko Miyamoto’s “Check it Out, Yo!” is a funny, inspirational, and pleasing two hours. source: http://www.beyondhollywood.com/check-it-out-yo-aka-chekeraccho-2006-movie-review/
