Review of Boyz n the Hood (1991) by Elvis Mitchell for The New York Times — 01 Jan 1998
The film's strength is that it sustains an intimate and realistic tone. Mr. Fishburne, who is called upon to deliver several lectures, manages to do so with enormous dignity and grace, and makes Furious a compelling role model, someone on whom the whole film easily pivots.
