the film was dope

Rating: 9/10 (28 August 2015)

Straight Outta Compton is a wild ride, that shows the rise and fame of Ice Cube, Eazy-E and Dr. Dre. What I loved about this movie was the characters, if you walk into this movie, being slightly familiar with the artists, you will walk out, bobbing your head along to the amazing soundtrack, which consists of the artists' original songs, as well as some solo projects that they embarked on. I loved everything about it; the performances, the musical cues, the writing sessions, Ice Cube's film career, where he is seen writing the script for Friday, everything was very well done. The only true gripe I can find is that; I was disappointed that they didn't show Ice Cube writing one of his most popular and most critically successful songs; "It was a good day", but other than that, Straight Outta Compton is an emotional, funny and touching thrill ride, that is well worth the price of admission, I give it a 9.5 out of 10
