Straight Outta Compton - Movie Review
Straight outta Compton. There are no words to describe how powerful this movie really is. If you can get past the cursing, nudity and sexual exploitation, you will see a well made movie that has a life changing messages. The movie set in the 1990's actually mirrors today's life experiences. All I can say is that these men were ahead of their time.
Straight Outta Compton reminded me of my own dreams and ambitions. It provided me comfort to know

that must continue to fight for what I believe in and I am striving for. The movie centered around 5 guys that were determined not to give up no matter what life through them.
As I watched the scenes that stuck out the most where the FBI threats against them, their manager stealing from them, American record producer and music executive Suge Knight threatening rapper Eazy E., Eazy E dying from AIDS and Dr. Dre leaving everything that he built too start over again.
Straight Outta Compton gets 2 thumbs up in my book. It is a movie I recommended as a must see. I even suggest that when they edit it for regular television for young people to see. I believe it will motivate them in their own lives. For the central theme running through Straight Outta Compton is "You don't have to stay were you started. If you just stay focused on your dream, you can rewrite your future!"
