Review of Straight Outta Compton (2015) by Ben T — 02 Jan 2016

Straight Outta Compton is the movie about the rap group NWA. I was really excited for this movie as I'm a big fan of NWA's music and the trailers made this film look great. Straight Outta Compton is a great and very entertaining movie that I really enjoyed.

All of the actors do a fantastic job, especially the actors who play Ice Cube, Dr Dre and Eazy E. This film is also brilliantly directed by F. Gary Gray. This music in the movie is great and I loved the riot scene where NWA sings fuck tha police.

This film also handles the dramatic scenes brilliantly, the ending is very sad and almost made me cry. This film has a few problems, the biggest of which is how this film sugarcoats a lot, showing the NWA members as perfect human beings and leaving out the bad stuff they have done.

However I really enjoyed this film and it's a lot of fun. A-.
