For a hardcore fan of his music and his life, it rings true.

If Milk set the standard for biopics in 2008, then 2009 is off to a strong start with Notorious.

rotten:
The movie leaves us with the sense that, twelve years after Biggie Smalls's death, a lot of people are trying to extract whatever profit or pride they can from the chaotic life of a young man who was, as he well knew, a work in progress.

fresh:
Even if we miss the thinking that went into the creation of Wallace's B.I.G.-ger-than-life alter ego, the movie's performances are exultant.

As mainstream hip hop becomes ever more predictable, so do the biopics about its stars.
