Tupac: Assassination (DVD)

Synopsis:
Tupac: Assassination lays out the entire murder-conspiracy plot surrounding the untimely death of Tupac Shakur. This film shows the events surrounding the investigation from two perspectives: how the events actually took place and how they were portrayed to the public.

By the time this DVD ends, the cloud of rumors surrounding Tupac's murder will dissipate and a clear picture will appear. Step 'N' Up Entertainment & Bond-Age Films have worked diligently to shed light on the truth about the events surrounding the murder of Hip-Hop's biggest icon, Tupac Shakur. The DVD, Tupac: Assassination, has provided facts that may finally bring justice for Tupac and his mother, Afeni Shakur....... 11 years later.

Comments: This is a very interesting account of the events that led up to, what the film makers refer to as, the assassination of Tupac. It's told first-hand predominately by Tupac's bodyguards.
            The only problem with the DVD is it's very one-sided. It's not so much a documentary as it is a case against Death Row Records and Suge Knight. It's definitely the bodyguards' side of the story. Specifically Frank Alexander and Michael Moore. There's also quite a bit about the apathy of Las Vegas police department and various other law enforcement.
            All things considered, this is a pretty good and informative DVD. - D (10:54 PM 1/18/2008)
