Straight Outta Compton is a classic movie

[Kidd Dibiase]

i think the next hip-hop biopic should be about DMX [i know pac is slated for next but that seems like a long shot]

 

[nieman]

Now is this better than Krush Groove?

Edit: Not as a biopic, but as a hip-hop movie

first half was dope, second half was meh...they rushed a bunch of shyt. Dude playing suge looked way too soft to be playing suge.

Overrated imo.

Thank you.poorly executed.

y’all nikkaz mad that the film showed dre whoopin some bloods and finding it not credible? would you have believed a former drug dealer who was "really real” unlike other rappers, would get beat up by a girl in an elevator until you saw it with ya own 2 eyes?

you never know, dre might have been suplexing these cold blooded piru's and we never knew about it

Jay z didn't get beat up.

And Dre's portrayal in the movie is laughable.

The way he was talking to suge

Finally saw the movie. Waaaaaayyyy better than I expected

Great performances by everyone in the film, top to bottom.

Movie was alright. Prolly one of those movies that I will keep on or flip to when it hits HBO or Cinemax.
Couple of things I thought were funny...
Cube obviously made himself out to be the protagonist of the movie. Not sure how I feel about it, whatever.
B1tch a$$ Dre standing up to Suge and the riders towards the end, FOH gay a$$ Andre, ain't NOBODY that even remembers anything about the sh1t believes that. He worth a billi now, so he can play that revisionist history sh1t, but ain't no way he can watch that sh1t and feel good on the inside, knowing he was a mark.

Great fukken movie.

Only problem I had was ol'boy who played Suge. They needed someone else, he wasn't even remotely intimidating.
Suge has a presence that alot of people talk about. He doesn't even have to say anything, and people are still shook.

Nah. Each of the big 3 got their shine as sort of co-protagonists. If anything Eazy was the de facto main character especially since he's the first one introduced.

Hailmary being in the movie is nothing more than fan service...its not that big of a deal

Suge is also intelligent,funny and charismatic. Hes one of the most interesting people in hip hop history.

He was a 1 note goon in this movie. His portryal sucked.

crosses $150 million at US boxoffice today brehs.

what was you expecting the amount to be when this film was announced and you saw the first trailer? i didnt think it would be $100 million. Especially after Notorious, that film opened big and then just fell out the bottom. I think it made about $30 million total. there just wasnt the historical precedent for a rap biopic to make dollars. 8 mile is a special case, given that it was a super cac and the cac was at the height of his popularity. So I was hoping for about $80 million in a best case scenario. $150 million and its still going brehs...

Suge was my second favorite performance in the movie after Eazy. they may have intended for him to be a goon, but knowing the story, way i saw it, he looked out for DOC and Dre. onnly jerry heller sympathisers could be mad at Suge.
