Boyz n the Hood (1991)
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.'

Since I have watched this nearly 30 years later, it's hard to comprehend how different this would have felt at the time -- a coming of age drama about black teens. Also, love the name Furious Styles.

I remember this film really impacted me I had never seen anything like it before and the whole Ricky getting shot and dying scene had me in tears I just watched this recently and I think it's held up pretty well over time

A great cast as long as they're nowhere near moving vehicles. I'm looking at you Cuba Gooding Jr. in Boat Trip, you Nia Long in Are We There Yet along with Ice Cube who was also awful on a boat in Anaconda and a bike in Torque. For Angela Basset it was spaceships in both Supernova and Critters 4. A train ride caught Morris Chestnut unless you're a big Under Siege 2 fan. Only Lawrence Fishburne went unscathed who whether by sea in Apocalypse Now or space in Event Horizon isn't tainted by travel.

simple story but emotionally intense film. with a good soundtrack and 90's west coast atmosphere, it's one of the referenced examples of "hood film", together with "do the right thing". i think "furious" reflects the main idea of the film. the government tries to destroy unwanted people by forcing them to being uneducated and unemployed. this method will cause to increase violence and terror among these groups. eventually the power will confirm itself and will demand right to intervene.

I thought I was watching my first Spike Lee right up until the credits rolled. Huh. Regardless of who I thought directed it, it was a good movie that feels completely relevant and barely dated at all 30 years later. 19th film of 2018.
