Quotes

Afeni Shakur: I'm worried about...
Tupac Shakur: Ain't nothing to be worried about.
Afeni Shakur: Like all Black leaders you have a bullseye on your back and today it just got bigger.
Tupac Shakur: But I ain't no Black leader! Not yet!
Afeni Shakur: And how are you not a Black leader! The Vice President was just talking about you on the TV!

Str8 Trash

This trash had no business going to the big screen. You have a rookie producer and a rookie director tell the story of one the most iconic music figures EVER!!!!! The story was lazy. The characters were poorly directed., The best thing about the movie was that Shipp Jr. kind of looked like PAC. Other than that there was no reason to watch this garbage for more than 5 minutes. I looked like LT and Benny did all of their research on YouTube. It seemed like they took direction from the same people that probably game them money i.e. Haitian Jack, Sean Puffy Combs, and Suge Knight. This film was a disaster and a disgrace to the Legacy of Tupac Shakur. Its not meant to tell his story. Its meant to exonerate their benefactors. This is truly a poor excuse for a movie. This trash shouldn't even be on Life Time.
