Title: Trying to hit a home run with a whiffle ball
Product review: The producers likely thanked their lucky stars when 2Pac Shakur got shot... it was about the only good publicity they got which enabled them to hustle a few more butts in the theatres than the film itself warranted.I don't deny 2Pac is by most accounts, an average actor, and in this film, he really makes James Belushi look like garbage.Which, to be honest, isn't hard to do--he's never learned that comedy is his terrain, as it was his brother's. His forays into anything else come off as useless, by comparison. He's just walking through the occasionally inventive script, and likely was rooting for his paycheque at the end of each shoot.The film itself is less than a rental, and only 2Pac fans will pay money for this. For me it was a free rental, although I would have paid good money NOT to see it.
