I disagree with Eazy-E calling this an After School Special with cursing. A better example would be coming-of-age films like Stand By Me. Singleton was more of a classical filmmaker--especially in image design and editing--which creates appropriate comparisons to a young Orson Welles. The social drama is slightly dated, although most pictures of the era were. Still, it rightfully spawned numerous imitations that merged the narrative sense of hip hop and the auteur aesthetic of indie film.

This movie is at its best, oddly, when it's being mundane. The dynamics between characters is charming and engaging. Otherwise its framing for social issues is hamfisted and hard to take seriously while not saying much of anything. It tackles a lot of different topics about black American culture but doesn't go anywhere with it, nor are the points the film addresses anything beyond superficial, surface level arguments that any leftist could make. The ending was pretty lame.
