Review of Straight Outta Compton (2015) by Matt C — 23 Mar 2016

I thought this was excellent even if it does cop out a little towards the end towards mawkish and sentimental. I can't vouch for how accurate a portrayal it is but it's engrossing, the performances are absolutely spot on and the music.

..well if you're a Hip Hop fan then you'll be loving it. Ice Cube's son is ridiculously similar to him! It's scary! I'm sure some of the scenes are a little contrived but you'll always get this in a musical biopic, this is right up there with the very best of them though.
