I liked this film a lot

Rating: 10/10 (21 January 2016)

I thought Straight Outta Compton was a very entertaining movie. To see how N.W.A. came to be and their rise during a very controversial time in "gangster rap", was very interesting to me. Like most success stories, they had to jump a whole hell of a lot of hurdles to make it to where they did. Hurdles like the press, LAPD & even the FBI. That is some serious red tape.
Love them or hate them, that is something that I have an immense amount of respect for. They were essentially pioneers in the rap industry bringing a whole new brand that received as much resistance as it did acceptance. This film kept me at attention from start to finish. Unlike most films I watch, I was honestly more interested in the story itself than the quality of acting. I really enjoyed the film.
