| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Poetic Justice |
In this film, two individuals clash with their different takes on life. One comes from a working-class family, while the other struggles with the inner-city thug life. The two eventually decide to work out their differences and become good friends. Janet Jackson plays a fabulous role here, while the late Tupac Shakur (known to some as 2Pac) shines in his best nonmusical performance.
