Summary: It's made a fan out of me
Review: I never really understood gangsta rap or it's appeal. I never really understood what "Thug Life" meant. And I certainly never understood why Tupac has such a fan following.

But I watched this movie, and I understood perfectly.

Simply put, watch this flick. It's a truely eye opening film and will change your mind about any negative things you've heard about Pac or any rapper.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: tupac rocks the hizzy
Review: i saw this movie in theatres with some friends and i didnt really even want to go see it, but my friend really fancies tupac so i was all "ok" oh my word. it was so not what i expected. i dont think it should be rated r because there was not much cussing and there was hardly any sex or anything of the kind. but what he thought about poverty and politcal and social issues was phenomenal. i agreed with so much that he said, this movie really moved me, and i thought it was so good, im gonna buy it when it comes out on dvd if i have some money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Riveting, captivating and enthralling
Review: I was never a fan of rap music, and for the most part, I still do not like most of it. However, after viewing this documentary on Tupac, I became very interested in this gifted, talented young man whose life was cut much too short. The world has lost a truly promising and magnetic artist/activist. I was genuinely surprised to see that Tupac was a very intelligent and articulate young man. His writing, his poetry, his acting ability and his political savvy, all were far beyond his young age. If he had lived and matured, he could (and would, I believe)) have become one of America's leaders. It is so sad that he is gone. What a waste...

Buy this DVD or if you don't want to buy it, at least SEE IT. I think you will understand what I'm talking about.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Real Story
Review: I've been collection all Tupac's doucmentery movies and books to know the exactly story of Tupac's life but I didn't got it, Cause all of the other movies were people talking about how he was killed or fans yelling and crying why he died so fast, but in "Tupac Resurrection" it's the real story of Tupac Amaru Shakur since he broned till he died with his own voice and real scenes about his life like when he got shot, high school interviews & some lawsuits.
In the end if you like Tupac you must watch this movie!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sad, so-called "tribute"
Review: Just an exploitation of Tupac by his family and the movie industry, wanting to make every dollar they can off him, alive or dead. There's nothing revelatory about this film. If you're familiar with Tupac already, you'll see nothing new or even that interesting. If you're not already familiar with Tupac, you're better off sticking to old magazine and newspaper clippings.

As far as the making of the film itself, it's just home movies and interviews smashed together incoherently, with no intent of getting a message or overall thought to the viewers. This one stinks.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Tupac Documentary.
Review: No question, this is the best Tupac documentary out there. There are alot out, such as Thug Immortal, Thug Angel, 2Pac 4Ever, etc. but this definitely beats all those. Produced by his mother and other people who were close to him, this documentary informs you about his life before stardom, during it, and everything in between; and the best part is, Tupac, himself, is narrating tha whole thing!! There's also a alot of bonus footage of Tupac, and several interviews with people who were close to him like, Jada Pinkett, Snoop Doggy Dogg, Treach of Naughty By Nature, etc. Although, Suge Knight does not give an interview for tha film, there is some footage of him speaking about Pac. This is a must have film for any fan of Tupac... you have to have it, your collection is simply incomplete without it. I strongly reccommend this DVD to everyone, even if you're not really a fan, it's still really interesting. Get it!!

Summary: Tupac Shakur- Still the Greatest
Review: People this ain't a movie it's a documentary.
Im just telling yall because when i went to c it in the theaters halfway through most people left cuz they were expecting some ganga a** movie with Tupac in it.

Personally I really liked this. I would recommend it not only to the fans of Tupac but also to his enemies and to the people who don't agree with his lyrical content. I would recommend it to them because they should take the time to see what Tupac was really bout. I ain't saying that after you watch this you'll become an expert at his life but it's a pretty good summary. His voice addition made everything stand out more. It was great. Some people think that we should stop commin out with sh** about him because he is dead but that don't mean nothing.

He wasn't just a regular rapper. His raps stood for smth. Not like many of the rappers today who just rap about getting high and drunk. I mean that ain't bad but com'on they should be rappin about some real s***.

Tupacs raps will never be matched. His words will never be forgotten. Everytime i hear lyrics on the radio or anywhere in real life it just hits me like "Damn thas Tupacs words"
You can't do that just with any ol'rapper.
His lyrics stood for smth important and in whatever mood i am they will always help me out.

This DVD is real good. He has a lot of stuff out but everything is diverse and so is this. You don't got to buy it you just got to watch it. This reviews up in here trying to sell DVD's and s***. All you need to do is watch it once and his words will get embalmed in you head.

To the greatest ever.
Still love you PAC

Summary: solid documentary, although needs some outside perspectives
Review: The disappointing issue about most Tupac documentaries is that they do offer little nuggets of information and small revelations about Shakur, but overall are far from being hard-hitting and thought-provoking, rather settling for the sentimental and lightweight, overly romanticized touches that mark most tributes to artists who died too early.
"Resurrection" is somewhat different in that Tupac's own words from interviews are stitched together to have him provide his own story: it's not a new approach, having been done before in documentaries for Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and numerous others. But unfortunately, despite having some moving moments with Tupac's where we see his fun, sensitive side, mostly we stroll through times and events we already know about, and the documentary could have benefited from some honest, outside perspectives. The documentary also doesn't delve too deep into the man who was Tupac Shakur, and the complicated, troubled, interesting person he was. It seems to skip at a steady pace until his death in Las Vegas. It's all a far cry from the passion, charisma, personality embedded in his best, often hard-hitting songs. You're likely to come away knowing him more by reading books and listening to his music. While Tupac fans should see this film, it's only a superficial glimpse into Tupac. The best documentary on him has yet to be made.
