Straight Outta Compton (2015)

One of my favourute movies of all time, and one of the best biopics ever written, Straight Outta Compton is the birth of an iconic legacy that made the world explode into thrill-seeking hip-hop music that we love today.The movie firstly explores the true origins of one of the most beloved artists of all time, all their actors' portrayal knock off an act so beautifully, it details such a dazzling exploration of the real-life icons that made it to their success. From the rise to the hip-hop group N.W.A., to the fall of their band leader, Eazy-E, it surely brings it to a jam-rollercoaster, to an emotional level that becomes tearful, it shines a light on what REALLY happened to their lives that will never be forgotten. It really shows you the issues of Ice Cube leaving the band abs making his own Diss Track, and when Eazy-E's disagreement coming to see his illness. O'Shea Jackson, Jr knocks off a terrific performance of portaraying his real-life father and kicks off a new fresh turn of what he really experienced in the band. Corey Hawkins portrays the rap's doctor, who is now the owner of Apple's Dre beats, and the Jason Mitchell brings to life an artist that changed history until his faithful death. The movie makes it even better with unknown, fantastic new faces that portray one of the best artists ever: Snoop Dogg, 2Pac, and many more.The movie gives it all, and is one of the best biographical movies ever to be out on screen. GO AND WATCH THIS MOVIE! It will be a crime to miss it.

Dear loyal followers, Its time for an accurate, real and correct review of this off the scale 11/10 masterpiece. Lets start by analysing the techniques used to bring us this joyous, heartbreaking, emotionally warming and politically correct societal blockbuster hit. The use of actors was rather exciting, especially O'shea Jackson Jr playing the Angel of the lord himself - Ice Cube. Now many of you out there may criticise my beliefs and ideologies of how the genius Cube himself, is portrayed on his past experiences and work but not forgetting his colleagues who have made big success. Being a black man in the 80s was known to be quite traumatic and racist, so to see a group of young black rappers succeed was simply absurd but developed to be iconically phenomenal and game changing for the music industry as a whole. The music can I say made me feel quite peaceful and the classic hit '*UCK THA POLICE' is a song I listen to every morning for my daily meditation but also what I share with my clients to show them whatever you are going through is not that bad and it will be okay in the end. To all the haters out here I have one message 'go suck a duck', I shall change that word by simply replacing with a 'd', because most of you have 7pm bed curfews, and can not restrain from powerful language. This movie was beautifully crafted to reveal the true struggles of ethnic minorities. I will tell y'all a little secret, me and Ice go back a long way we have had our arguments over creative talent - ice always wins, which I think is fairly evident in this review of our lives. Now I have his digits on my cell, I won't hesitate to give him a call and arrange a little meet up with all you dictators. Cause Patricia B is crazy! Kind disregards Her Majesty Patricia Bateman Vanilla the 8thI gotta say it was a good day. P.s me and homeboy remember writing this back in 92' Peazy P outIts very hypocritical for this post to be declined multiple times due to other reviews being considered racist and patronising!

As a movie, it's great. The casting was spot on and the actors are perfect. It keeps you on the age of your seat for the first 1hr 45 mins and then winds down from there. It has some humour in it and shows the human side of them all. They all have their flaws, but they have qualities that outweigh them. I loved this as a movie. 7 is a high score for me and I would have given this movie an 8 if not for the last hour of the movie. The portrayal of Eazy-E struggling seems very disrespectful to me. If Eric were alive, would he have wanted himself being portrayed that way? He had a good solo career, he was working closely with Bone Thugs n Harmony who were nowhere to be seen. It skipped his rap beef with Dre and his diss records to Death Row and Suge Knight. He even ends up bagging up cannabis to sell and make ends meet. It's very disrespectful to a man who isn't here to see that his legacy get's shown tastefully. He was a very proud man and would want to come across as stronger. When Future generations watch this movie they will think Eric was a struggling solo rapper who couldn't function without NWA. The truth is he wasn't doing too bad financially, he had a successful solo career that was only slowed down due to his deteriorating health, and was helping many up and coming artists. He was still being paid for every record Dre sent out for the time he was under contract with Ruthless.Despite it being a very good movie, it isn't the best biopic due to their portrayal of Eazy-E.

Being a huge NWA fan since year 10 in high school,now (29)this movie was a dream come true,about my favourite hip hop act of all time. The cast did a great job especially the actors playing the 3 main leads(DR.DRE,ICE CUBE,EAZY-E). The movie paces itself brilliantly and everyone is given ample screen time.
