 Really tough guys who do right hard music: For example, the hip-hop group NWA positioned against police arbitrariness and for women’s wear. The film “Straight Outta Compton” tells how Dr. Dre, Ice Cube and Co. landed on the fast track.

 

 
 

There were once O’Shea Jackson and Andre Young, One was a juggler of words with college block, the other a penniless DJ. For them, the hip-hop legends Ice Cube and Dre were Dr. “Straight Outta Compton” tells how she as the driving forces behind the group NWA – Niggaz Wit Attitude -. The life of poverty turned their backs to indulge the pomp

“Straight Outta Compton” also tells of the NWA members Eazy-E, DJ Yella and MC Ren – just a little less. This could be due to the fact that it is really difficult even for an experienced filmmaker like F. Gary Gray to portray a group that broke up before its members had actually established in the industry. Yet the film at odds with less complex storylines rather than with the truth. Ice Cube and Dr. Dre have been producing the strip and had safely say in the contents of some.



The anger of the young men

is best “Straight Outta Compton” when the movie his hero shows as human beings and not as stars. Because what we too easily forget: N.W.A. founded simple teenager with great talent and a good dose of anger if the injustices they have experienced in their lives. Of course, there are scenes in which detained Black unjustly harassed or arrested. It is the impressiveness of those moments that make the moviegoers later feel the NWA anthem “Fuck tha Police”. The anger of the young men is justified for the moment.

It is regrettable that it “Straight Outta Compton” leave it there. The film does not look for explanations for all the violence-glorifying content that is not related to racist police violence. Instead, he lets the rapper heavily armed stormed through hotel corridors.



evil are the other

The fact that the NWA members can not look back on a clean past all, the film does not hide. Ice Cube smashed objects, Dr. Dre looking to get away, as it is cruel. But that actually evil incarnate in “Straight Outta Compton” other. The white manager Jerry Heller, for example, all except Eazy-E skin over the ear and eventually can not keep him. Or the rap mogul Suge Knight, with the Dr. Dre While some time making music, prior to its violent methods but eventually shrinks. In comparison, go the NWA-Stars as true luminaries by – but not for long

Women were off their curves almost meaningless in the world of hip hop in the late 80s and early 90s.. In “Straight Outta Compton” they have nothing to say in literally. Only when a beauty for longer term bedfellow ascends, she gets a few lines of text. Otherwise, they will begrabbelt, pushed aside or only with panties clothed shown the door. As Dr. Dre journalist Dee Barnes brutally beats, wanted “Straigt Outta Compton” but then rather not show.



For hip-hop experts and laymen

Something polished’s “Straight Outta Compton” precisely. Courage to human abysses exists only as long as it serves the image. But even with its ironed Plot knows the film to captivate. Sometimes it is possible with very cheap tricks – for example, when Tupac Shakur or Snoop Dog are woven for a few moments in the plotline. But sometimes it can also be achieved with a lot of cinematic sensibility. The concert scenes are impressive, the soundtrack is the theme accordingly huge.

You do not really know anything about gangster rap, to have fun at “Straight Outta Compton”. But you can learn on the basis of the film a little bit about gangster rap. Strokes are the hip-hop mentally, it’s the same old story of big money and how it transformed from talents in little lovable eccentricities. Fun “Straight Outta Compton” anyway. And fans can very much hum along quietly – how the story ends
