There are some moments of real tenderness between the two; but the true life of the movie exists not within, but rather around its central characters, in the supporting cast, strong soundtrack, and underlying messages.

Downstairs, in a luxurious video screening room, Jeff leaves us to ourselves to watch an introductory film on Scientology. The film has a B-movie sheen.

I polled my friends and came to the conclusion that I was part of a lost generation--rabid African-American rap fans who had sadly concluded that the soundtrack of their lives was scratched.
