A documentary searching for answers to the still-unsolved murders of Tupac and Biggie. The film is directed by Nick Broomfield, a British documentarian who has become well-known for investigating the stories behind high profile celebrities (his previous work includes "Kurt & Courtney" about the death of Kurt Cobaine, and "Heidi Fleiss: Hollywood Madam") and stirring up heaps of controversy along the way. It follows Nick as he explores all possible avenues of information, interviewing sources like Biggie's mom, Tupac's dad, people they used to hang with, anybody related to the cases, crooked cops, gang members, and even Suge Knight himself (while in jail!). He makes a definite case for certain theories (Suge Knight did it), but I don't know what the hell to believe now- how do you trust a crooked cop? Quite surprising, nonetheless. Bonus features included additional scenes edited from original theatrical release, and director commentary.
