About this movie

STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON tells the true story of how five young cultural rebels -- armed only with their lyrics, swagger, bravado and raw talent -- stood up to the authorities that meant to keep them down and formed the world's most dangerous group, N.W.A.. And as they spoke the truth that no one had before and exposed life in the hood, their voice ignited a social revolution that is still reverberating today.

If it wasn't so long, I'd say it would have been better but having said that, still a well produced film....loved seeing a young Snoop Dogg. Great watch.

Watered down hyped up music biographical for kids. Giamatti was the convincing highlight performer in this otherwise glossy film that fails to capture enough of the true essence of these very important personalities in music history.

Loved it - Straight Outta Compton showcases a piece of American History,giving the public a socio-political and cultural context as to why gangsters and ghettos of the Black community came to be as well as the ongoing issues they have had in the past and still face today. A movie made from the heart, raw and honest.✌
