Boyz in the Hood
Juice
8 Mile
Cooley High (for you old school folks)
I love the battle in 8 Mile and Juice (with Tupac Shakur and Omar Epps) is a real "street" movie and was somewhat entertaining. 8 mile is a little too "bubble gumish".
Boyz in the Hood is a Classic. This movie even kept my girlfriends interest. She thinks that Juice is a joke.
Ice Cube is brilliant in this movie. It leaves a lasting impression with you as you watch it. When I went to California in 2002 , I was on the freeway to see the eventual World Series Champs, the Anaheim Angels. I saw the exit for Compton and as a joke I got off the exit. My girlfriend thought about the Boyz in the Hood and she was yelling at me to get back on the freeway. I did. (I wouldn't have went to far into town-not worth the risk for a NY/NJ guy like me).
Boyz In the Hood is the best by far. (Cooley High was better than Juice) (8 Mile, I go back and forth on. Never had that nervous feeling watching it)
