Review of All Eyez on Me (2017) by The3Academysins — 07 Mar 2018
Director Benny Boom's biopic of Tupac Shakur is one of the worst films I have ever seen. It's long (2 hours and 21 minutes of pure despair), plodding, surprisingly lacking in music, and completely devoid of focus or meaning.
The performances are wooden at best and laughably bad at worst. Some scenes are so bad it is hilarious. The directing and cinematography are completely lazy and make the thrilling life of Tupac feel like a rip-off Hallmark channel movie.
Events just kind of happen without reason, we spend too much time on plot elements that go nowhere at all, and WORSE, a lot of elements, (such as the backstage argument with Jada Plinkett) Are completely fictional! Mr.
Benny Boom's vision of Tupac is a slap in the face to all real pac fans, and a quick cash grab. Mr. Benny Boom is an inept filmmaker at best and a greedy hustler cashing in on the greatest of all time at worst.
Tupac deserved better.
