What Parents Need to Know
About Tupac: Resurrection
Parents need to know that this movie challenges the audience. Teens are going to want to see it because they like the music and the images of Tupac's "gangsta" lifestyle. This movie shows it like it is and you see how conflicted Tupac was. Arrested 12 times but also very caring about his community, he is not an easy person as a role model. Just know there is graphic everything here -- sex, violence, language, drugs, lifestyle and of course he dies at the end. But there's no getting around his influence and importance in the teenaged cultural world. As parents you can either go with the R rating and not let your kids see it. But if you do, please consider going with them.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what they think Tupac's importance is both to them and the broader culture. What kind of role model is he? What do they think about how he behaves toward women, authority, his community? Why do they think he did what he did and expressed himself the way he did? Why do they think his music is so good? There is fertile ground here to really address a huge part of pop culture and learn how your kids are absorbing its messages. Finally, you might ask them if they think the documentary is historically accurate and find out how they interpret what they see and whether or not they question powerful images such as the ones presented in this film.

- Inappropriate language
Any fan of Tupac should watch this movie. It's basically a biography/documentary on his life with interviews from people he knew and whatnot. It's been a while since I have seen it but there is plenty of profanity being a movie about a rapper. There is also sex and drug content as this is a story about his life ealing wiht real life issues. Tupac Shakur was arrested and tried for sexually assaulting a female fan. THere is also violent content such as in Tupac's lyrics or how he got shot. It's a great documentary and anyone who is a fan of Tupac should be able to watch it
