Straight
Outta Compton 7/10
Finally
got a chance to check out the NWA based movie Straight Outta Compton.
When thinking of how I'd rate it I had a hard time because I lived
through this story. I guess this is what happens when you get older.
I loved the group growing up and know almost all of their songs. I
sided with Ice Cube after the group split up because he was fucking
incredible. The acting was okay. Cube's son was good but everyone
else seemed slightly off, like I could tell that they were acting. I
would have liked to see them age or look different other than a
couple of haircuts as well. And the guy playing Suge Knight was
distractingly bad. This may have been better if the actual members
were not involved because it felt like a cleaned up version of what
NWA was. Its worth checking out but I'm kinda glad I waited.
