i picked a copy of this up at a yard sale last week thinking this would be interesting. And it was. I never knew much about tupac's acting, or janet jackson's-- and both were well fleshed actors.
Tupac's pretty attractive! What a shame he was taken from us so early.
Some things bugged me from a director's eye point of view. The trip the four people take to the Bay Area is supposed to be in one day, yet they make like a million stops along the way and there is always the same amount of light out and they stop at places that you would never be able to stop off at from the 101 or the 5.
Creative license I guess. And also people were hooking up when they shouldn't have.
I also thought some of the poems were OK... but then I found out Maya Angelou wrote them. Hmph, I guess we all have weak moments.
Overall, it's good, it didn't move me emotionally, it was just interesting. It was interesting to look at it as a study of how violence and loss can seep into our personalities, at least in the personalities in the movies. Sometimes the character's comebacks when they were fighting each other were more poetic than Maya Angelou's crap poems.
So lesson is, if you see this at a yard sale, pick it up.
