Review of Boyz n the Hood (1991) by Michael H — 24 Jan 2011
A wonderful portrait of what life was/is like in poor black areas. It drags in places, but that's intentional. I may not agree with all of the ideas presented in the movie (mostly the ideas of Furious), but you cannot shake the fact that there's a lot more work to do before it gets better.
I was amazed at how good young Ice Cube was at acting, especially in the final scene. Nudity and extreme profanity use. There was NO NEED for the nudity, but the cussing had to be done to acurately portray the area.
A hard movie to watch.
