  • I'm a big fan of NWA so I really enjoyed this movie. Was way better than it had any right to be while also being very sad. Each member of the group was portrayed well and it is really cool to see the son of Ice Cube play him in a movie. Such great music.

'Straight Outta Compton' Review
7/10

Straight Outta Compton hurtles toward greatness only to fall short in execution. Yet, aiming high and falling short still results in a very good film.
