This cut-short icon thrived on his contradictions.īut the dramatized movie we’ve gotten, “All Eyez On Me,” is a hagiographic dud that unfolds like a depth-free magazine listicle. He was a cauldron of machismo and sensitivity, a poster child for misogynistic gangsta rap who could fire you up with a message of injustice or melt your heart with tracks about welfare mothers. Unpacking Tupac Shakur’s life would be daunting for anybody hoping to capture it in one biopic: Black Panther mom, turbulent childhood, theater school, hip-hop stardom, movie fame, criminality, charisma, rap feuds, prison, surviving a handful of gun battles, then tragically not surviving one at the age of 25.
