Query: Why? Why? oh Why?

I have not seen this film and don't intend to after watching the trailer. How many more prequels of this nature do we have to put up with? The acting and the script look terrible. No wonder it's straight to DVD. Brian De Palma's Carlito's Way was a masterpiece and the performances of Al Pacino and Sean Penn were just mesmorising. The dialogue is absolutely poor in this new film and everything seems so cliched and unoriginal. These pointless films make me cringe and I keep wondering why Hollywood insists on wasting talented actors like Luis Guzmán and Giancarlo Esposito. They are capable of so much more. These type of films show nothing but Hollywood's lack of imagination. I would say to viewers, watch the first film, it's amazing but stay clear of this. Oh and as for the casting of P.Diddy, I thought he was convincing in Monster's Ball but here well, gimme me a break.
