    This movie not only enlightens the average concert goer as to what it takes to produce a show but it also manages to maintain a tension throughout the film that the best scripted dramas can't do.The movie centers around Chang, a concert producer who has taken on the huge challenge of bringing all members of the Wu-Tang Clan back together for an all but impossible performance.Chang came off with a sort of guy next door kind of honesty.The film does a great job of contrasting the tumultuous environment of entertainers, fans, drugs, and booze against a seemingly normal group of producers who have to maintain order to make the show happen.The films production deceptively allows the viewer to think,"Hey, I could do that."But, a good artist always makes it look effortless and one would be hard pressed to find any film that can keep the viewer biting their nails until the credits run, much less a doc. One doesn't need to be a fan of hip hop to love this film as I am not, and I did.

    The extras about ODB were exceptional. The film was mediocre to the say the least. I understand that the focus was on getting the group together but the lack of musical footage of the actual event was disappointing. The ending credit said the group performed a two hour set but there wasn't even a snippet of that footage. Disappointed Wu Fan!
