Rating: Summary: Wow just simply amazing. Review: I loved this movie ever since I saw at the movies a couple years back. This is not just about gangs, it's about inner city kids lives. I put this on my top ten list. Oh ye Im even white too.
Rating: Summary: Some of you guys just don't get it! Review: I was reading some of the reviews posted below, and was irritated when this movie was so often referred to as a "gang" movie. This isn't a movie about inner-city gangs, folks! The main characters, played by Cuba Gooding, Jr., and Lawrence Fishburne, and his friends Ricky and Doughboy (played by Ice Cube) are NOT gang members. They are simply poor, urban youths trying to make their lives the best they can. I can totally relate to Lawrence Fishburne's character, Furious, who amid the turmoil and suffocating poverty and despair of the ghetto, is trying to build a business that will improve both his family life and the neighborhood, as well as trying to keep his son (Gooding) on the straight and narrow path. Fishburne's character reminded me so much of my own father. I watched this movie in high school, and was blown away by the frankness of the story-telling. It was not overly embellished by tremendous acts of violence, as is the case in most Hollywood movies about the inner-city, nor does it try to ignore the ugliness present in everyday life in South-Central. The most heart-wrenching aspect of this film was the murder of Ricky, the USC-bound football star, who was gunned down in the alley the day he received the SAT result that would have allowed him to pass through the door leading out of the hopelessness of the ghetto.

Rating: Summary: This is a GOOD movie Review: This movie explains to us the consequences of being in a gang as you would have found out if you saw the movie for yourself. A tight uplifting film that has a good storyline and some very good moments in it indeed. I would give this movie the BEST OF THE MONTH probably but definitely not the best of the year. VERY GOOD MOVIE A MUST SEE FOR YOU VIOLENCE TYPE PEOPLE

Rating: Summary: THE BEST OF THE BEST Review: THIS IS THE GREATEST MOVIES OF ALL TIMES TRUELY A CLASSIC TO BE VIEWED BY ALL. LIKE DOUGHDOY SAID EITHER THEY DON'T KNOW DON'T SHOW OR DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT GOING ON IN THE HOOD BUT SINGLTON GIVES YOU A UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL VIEW OF WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. ANYONE THAT SEES THIS MOVIE MUST ALSO SEE MENACE TO SOCIETY.
Rating: Summary: It wasn't some old made up story to impress people. Review: I thought this movie was great it was real it wasn't so old made up story trying to impress people. For example Vanilla Ice. but I like the movie when It first came out and I like it now and I will always like It and watch it every chance i get.
Rating: Summary: True to life Review: Growing up in a bad neighborhood in LA, this movie struck a chord with me. Although I'm white, I still live through hell everyday and this movie couldn't be any more realistic. Singleton lived through this and nobody else could have made it any better. This is how it is in LA, whether you're white, black, hispanic, whatever, you have to watch this movie to understand how it is for the less fortunate of this city, and even then, you probably won't.
