1. Two Academy Award Winning Actors who are also directors star alongside an ex-drug dealer-turned-rapper/actor.
2. The production company is owned by the aforementioned E-DDTRA
3. The estimated budget is less than either of the two Academy Award winning actors normally get paid.
While not the worst film, I've seen. I could have made better use of my money. 50 Cent is a slightly better actor than he is a rapper, which is not saying much. The plot has been done many times before in much better films (Training Day, Deep Cover). Curtis: Leave the acting to actors and the rapping to rappers. You don't see Jay-Z or P-Diddy starring in action/drama films, do you?
