A great story of art and music

Rating: 8/10 (15 September 2015)

Straight Outta Compton is best throwback for all the old schools out there. Of course, we all know who is in the Group of NWA. It's all about art, music, and their story on how the group NWA made progress into making their voices be heard. This movie is interesting not only the story, but also because of the elements in it. Recommended for all the people out there.
First of all, the movie consists of the story of NWA reaching success. there are some things that lack information in the movie. The focus is in Dr. Dre, Eazy E, and Ice Cube. Some information about Dj Yella and MC Ren is not shown. But even if some focuses are on Dr. Dre, Eazy E, and Ice Cube, Dj Yella and MC Ren is not removed from the picture. They are always together, through tough and sad times. We can understand through their music on how they fight everyday struggles of police brutality, struggles in their personal life, how they express what they feel, violence in their surroundings, and how to speak and spread the things that is happening in reality. It started from creating the group, how the group breaks, and how the group reunites. We can relate in this movie if we experience the same.
Second, is the portrayal of characters. The actors did a great job on how they portray their roles. Even if the some actors will just appear in less than 30 seconds, they still did great. This goes for Tupac and Snoop Dogg. Eazy E, Dr. Dre and Ice Cube's portrayal was great. You can easily determine who is who on how they speak, talk, walk, act and their attitudes. It is also because we know how they act in real life and they perfectly impersonated each and every one.
Third, is the environment. They provided the same setting on how people live in these places in reality. The time is mostly at night. The concert grounds, houses, recording areas, and even the party place is accurate. It Started from a chaotic place, which soon turns into a peaceful place. The camera angles are also great. It captures the great scenes and characters.
And the fourth is the message. The message in this movie is how we can reach success even if we are in our hard times. We stay together because we can't be happy when one of our family leaves. We keep pushing forward, no matter the situation is. We fight our own rights as human beings and have our own way of expressing in through music and words. We should know what is happening in our surroundings, and how to make a change for the better.
There are some things that are missing in the movie. The movie focuses on the good side of the characters. But overall, It was a great movie.
note: I don't know why some stories are not shown in the movie and I don't know some of it. Maybe it's inapropriate.
