Not to be confused with: Notorious (2009)

Plot comparison: Hitchcock’s espionage thriller about an anti-Nazi seducer/destroyer (Ingrid Bergman), or George Tillman Jr.'s biopic about big-boned rapper the Notorious B.I.G. Life and death stuff either way.

If they switched directors: Tillman brings the bling to WWII, with pimped-up uniforms, bitchin’ tunes and drive-by shootings.

Hitch sends Biggie on the run, pursued by the West Coast Crew and aided only by the mysterious ‘Puff Daddy.’

Irksome To whom?: Hitch, obviously, whose titles seem to be fair game for anybody.  First Mr and Mrs Smith, now Notorious.

Someone, somewhere is making a foul-mouthed comedy about a hen night called... yes, you guessed it... The Birds.
