“Notorious” Box Office Hit?
Notorious, a biopic about rapper Notorious B.I.G, earned $21.5 million on opening weekend. For those who have not heard, Notorious is a movie about rapping legend, Notorious B.I.G. with Jamal Woolard playing the East-coast heavyset artist. The film is kind of like a biography, starting from his drug dealing days in Brooklyn to becoming the most famed rap artist in the world.
Many fans of the artist, who went to see the movie, had mixed reviews. One reviewer said that the movie was utterly boring and that the actors did not portray the other artists as they were in real life. If you remember from a previous blog, Lil Kim was not impressed by the way she was portrayed in the movie.
So will it be a Box Office hit? That’s up to My Bloody Valentine, which beat Notorious with $21.9 million.
