Genres & Description

Action Crime Drama

7.8 / 10

John Singleton's portrayal of social problems in inner-city Los Angeles takes the form of a tale of three friends growing up together 'in the 'hood.' Half-brothers Doughboy and Ricky Baker are foils for each other's personality, presenting very different approaches to the tough lives they face. Ricky is the 'All-American' athlete, looking to win a football scholarship to USC and seeks salvation through sports, while 'Dough' succumbs to the violence, alcohol, and crime surrounding him in his environment, but maintains a strong sense of pride and code of honor. Between these two is their friend Tre, who is lucky to have a father, 'Furious' Styles, to teach him to have the strength of character to do what is right and to always take responsibility for his actions.

John Singleton's first - and so far best - movie. Very well made coming-of age story of life in South Central L.A. The first part of this trailer provides a great perspective of the film. But the ending gives the impression that it's another derivative story of gang life in an urban ghetto; and it's much more than that. - @Saturday, April 22, 2017 7:41 AM
