Paul Giamatti stole the show and apparently everything else according to Straight Out of Compton.

Granted, no one could have reversed poor Eazy's unhealthy promiscuity, but what he if got NWA a better deal on their first album? The future/ie the present, would have been drastically altered…..No Boys In The Hood, no Are We There Yet? No 50? No Eminem, it's really back to the future-esque thinking about the capabilities of Dre. and Cube. Heck at least they came together to make this movie. One question, why have total randos play the main characters? Dre and Cube should have just played themselves. To top it off, the actor playing Snoop, that guy, wtf? He was not Snoop.

Not much adversity in this movie outside of a music tour hotel orgy shootup. Also, sadly Dre's bro dies, and of course Eazy's exit, which I fast forwarded.

Suge Night played the character well. Maybe there should have been more depiction of dog fighting at Death Row Records. How about Paul Giamatti in tears when Eazy wanted out, that is strange, what franchise was left anyways after all the other talent split? I think Paul is a big time Bone Thugs fan, and did not want to miss out on that.

I miss the ‘90s, life was simple, cops were assholes, free speech was threatened and it ain't no fun if the homeys can't have none. Hopefully you catch Straight Out of Compton around the first of the month, that way you can have some cash reserves to sip a 4 dawg and roll a blount for the viewing.
