Biggie Movie Filming

You may have seen the crews and the orange signs around the nabe over the last few days.

Per IMDB, Notorious is about "the life and death story of Notorious B.I.G. (a.k.a. Christopher Wallace), who came straight out of Brooklyn to take the world of rap music by storm."

Any old schoolers want to weigh in on the movie?  Will it be cheesy?  Or does it have potential to be a great film?  At least they're filming it where he actually grew up (instead of filming it in Toronto and pretending it's Brooklyn).
