Straight Outta Compton (2015)

[Dupac]

Great movie, people wanted it to be a documentary, but it was a film... And as a film it told a great great story.. You can nit pick and fact check all you want and it's still a great movie....

Cubes son really broke out.... Thee laughs were great, that bye Felicia scene was genius on so many levels

 

[TheBossman]

9/10

Already a classic, that actor was a characterization of the real tupac.

Dre ain't that tough.

Cube son looks like his pops so much(and arian foster).

Kdot at the end was random, but I got it.

That's great to hear. Not to many music biopics manage that. There's La Bamba, What's Love Got to Do With It, Ray, Why Do Fools Fall in Love and that's about it. I mean I love The Jacksons and The Temptations TV movies as much as the next guy but they're pretty cheesy films.

DIdn't they get the same guy John Singleton found for the role for his failed Pac biopic?

if so yeah that guy looks a lot like Pac.

 

[Phantom Pain]

Dude looked nothing like Snoop, but sounded like him at points..

I burst out laughing when I saw Pac in the booth..

A nigga almost got emotional when they did "Fuck Tha Police"

..and that Wet & Wild party was goin down!!

 

[BangEm_Bart]

The guy that played snoop looks nothing like him.

 

[mryounggun]

-I can't front, I was ready to be disappointed with the Pac scene. Quite the opposite. Whole shit was on point.

-Cube's son can't actually act for shit, but that's cool.

-Yella was funny as fuck.

-I'm anxious to see the director's cut when it's released on DVD. Or at the very least, the deleted scenes.

-You can tell Dre and Snoop produced this shit. Not a single negative thing in the film about either.

[phukkyou2]

They weren't THAT off but I hear u

 

[Phantom Pain]

Yall notice dude with the curl that ran the club was where Pinky from Friday came from?

 

[willhustle]

I finally got to see it today and it was a damn good movie. Easy-E's death was sad as fuck though. This was way better than the shit they put out with Notorious years ago. Suge was like the fucking devil in the movie the way they portrayed him. 9/10

Spoiler

Side note: I spotted a IG chick as an extra when they introduced Dre's wife. The chick standing next to Dre's wife at the pool is the IG chick.

 

[Broddie]

Finally saw it myself since my homies picked me up with free AMC tickets earlier tonight and I didn't want to see Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Good movie. Don't think I'll ever see it again but glad that I got to see it. Hope this movie's success gets F. Gary Gray and Cube to finally get going on Last Friday once and for all.

Some folks didnt seem to like it.

"How is supporting people who doubled-down on their violence towards black women in any way supporting black people, and this is the coonery we want to bring to and support as black business? I guess unless women and queer folk aren't part of the black community then its all good. Yet people want to say this helps the BLM movement which was founded by a queer black woman.

I'm not sure how useful supporting black businesses would be if they don't support black women. Why should a woman go out of her way to support them if it's to her own detriment -- all the while proclaiming that it's good for the community somehow."

 

[Broddie]

I don't blame black women for not supporting this movie though. Dre was a black woman beater & rapped many anti black women lyrics and Cube was a huge misogynist. A lot of Black people also feel NWA was a COINTELPRO scam used to further hoodwink the youths in the hoods across America. I'm not much about conspiracy theories but it's not far fetched to see why they would think that. So don't expect every black person you see to want to see or be into seeing this movie.

I was kinda ambivalent to it myself because a part of me has outgrown that music particularly the second album with shit like One Less Bitch and it's ilk like The Chronic in many ways. I'm more of an Amerikkka's Most and Death Certificate guy in my 30's. Granted with SOC and NIGGAZ4LIFE it's still very entertaining when they go really over the top with their rhymes but definitely not something I'm bumping everyday anymore like I did as a kid, teen or in my 20's.

It will always be the reflection of angry teens and young men in their early 20's. I'm well past that stage now that I'm 32. At the same time the nostalgia of seeing "NWA" again one more time superceded that for me. Not so much for other people especially those who never liked NWA in the first place.

 

[OhMars]

Great movie, I ruined it for the chick i went though. Kept telling here shit that was going to happen before it did.

No the fuck he wasn't. He looked like Pac, but that's it. They need to get Mike B Jordan for that Pac Movie.

"So Cube, what does a person from the ghetto that comes up on a lot of money spend it on?"

Cube looks down at the end of the table...

"More Raiders gear and curl activator."

Shots fired right in front of that nigga Eazy LOL
