Tupac Resurrection is a great documentary about a man who probably experienced more pain in his life than any Hip hop artist or any famous person in the world. The film gives us everything you ever wanted to know about the man himself from the stories behind his poetic music, his childhood and growing up in violent ghettos with his mother (Afeni Shakur who was a well known crack addict)and to his times on Death Row records which set the spark to the Tupac/Biggie feud. What i like most about this film though is how the narration is actually done by Tupac himself! that makes it very realistic and quite spooky in a way,especially since nothing like that has ever been done before in a documentary. Obviously to be into a film like this you might have to be into a bit of rap music and be familiar with Tupac, But if not it does not matter because the film is just a too good story to miss. The soundtrack is also hot, featuring 'Runnin' (dying to live) a song with both Biggie and Tupac recorded while both men were alive which was never released until now and a couple of other great Tupac hits only now released. Altogether i loved this film an easy 10 out of 10.
score /10
