Review of Boyz n the Hood (1991) by Nick K — 27 Nov 2014
It's rare for a film to generate such intense levels of emotional investment as I felt watching Boyz n the Hood's tragic story unfold. It is a thought-provoking, heart-wrenching coming-of-age drama that masterfully balances poignant social commentary with a deep, character-rich plot.
Director John Singleton's exceptional cinematography and some incredibly moving performances round out what is surely one of the most resonant and culturally significant films of the '90s. As a directorial debut, it's nothing short of amazing.
