Review of Straight Outta Compton (2015) by Kevin V — 22 Jan 2016
The movie pointed out one obvious thing. NWA was important to music. As for the characters portrayed in the film? They were boring. Once the novelty of watch a guy acting like Eazy E and a dude that looks and sounds like Ice Cube wears off, there isn't that much.
I guess Dr. Dre was the main character? I don't know, I didn't get to spend significant time with any of the characters to really care about any of their stories. This guy just took a bunch of other music biopics and pasted them together to make this near-3 hour mess (yeah, I watched the Directpr's Cut.
... big mistake).
