..I had to watch the movie since I actually liked at the time some of the music of NWA, especially the title track of the movie. Yet what happened after-wards, after their success, is just a sell out to make a bunch of money with no more attitude than all the others. And now the movie and it would deserve just one star, yet the music brings back some memories when things could have been changed in a different way than Look at them now, nowadays...thats all that there is to say about the characters of the movie. If that was meant to change things, well Sirs, screw you! The story itself, well I do not know what is true and what is not, but like stated above, in the end it came to make more money than others. What they have changed is just that violence and negativity can bring success, that youths of today look up to them what they could do and want to do as well...THAT is what they have changed and just because Compton is nowadays almost everywhere, does not make this a success in changes, but a success in stupidity. funny movies, like Ice Cube.... So what remains is the music...there was once a dream of a few guys who wanted to change something, what they have changed is to attitude and the real change they created, a no show!
