I wasn't expecting much out of this, but it was a great movie. Really tells the story of the rap hay-days of the 90's through the life of the Notorious BIG. It was well done all around. I would recommend it to anyone.

this was a okay movie, i didnt have high expectations for it. I expected it just to be a movie version of a notrious big documentary and that was exactly what it was. the guy that played biggie gave a good performance portraying how smooth biggie was. Angela Bassett was good as well. the rest of the cast was awful puffy,little kim, tupac and faith. They could have done a better job of finding better actors.

I thought it was an excellent movie. Excellent acting. I don't know about whose point of view it was taking necessarily but I found the characters very compelling and human. I would recommend it highly.

it was o.k. i know some about the feud between the 2 coasts. it kind of got my attention to see it because i wanted to know how he actually die. you can't deny he did have a lot of talent and manage to get respect at such a young age
