Great film with plenty of people that have made a Mark after this movie

It’s a great film , one everybody should watch

An often harsh coming of age movie directed by the now late John Singleton set in a largely African/American dominated suburb in L.A.The film tells of how 10-year-old Tre Styles (young - Desi Arnez Hines II -older Cuba Gooding Jr)who has lived with his mother is sent by her to live with his father Jason "Furious" Styles Jr. (Laurence Fishburne) hoping that her son will grow-up using his father's standards as a guide.At school, Tre reunites with friends Doughboy (young - Baha Jackson -older Ice Cube) along with Doughboy's half-brother Ricky (young - Donovan McCrary -older- Morris Chestnut) and friend Chris (Young - Kenneth A. Brown- older - Redge Green)Seven years have passed, the boys now young adults.At a barbecue, Darrin (Doughnut) celebrates his release from jail along with his brother, Chris who these days is wheelchair-bound after becoming paralysed from a gunshot wound, along with several other friends and Tre who has remained close to Doughnut, Ricky and Chris though following a more responsible path in life.These are the days of learning about life, relationships and indeed further education prospects.Doughnut a leader as he always has been lives on the edge of the law, Ricky, Chris and friends a part of his set-up, Tre is not a part of any criminal activities.There is a neighbourhood rival gang who would like to take over the territory from Doughnut, a rivalry that would cost lives.Will Tre be able to follow his father's example and avoid the trouble that's coming?The 1991 movie is pretty topical and quite reflective in some ways of today showing really how little things have changed.A good film that perhaps lapses a little at times but as it reaches its climax becomes pretty heart-wrenching.Never seen the film before, not sure how it passed me by all these yearsThe 4K upgrade is in fact pretty goodWell worth a viewing

Fantastic Film....even though it's a bit older.... great acting...Love it...

RIP Mr J Singleton, brilliant movie but also sad. I loved the timeline transition of the characters starting off as kids and then an outstanding all star cast showing how each of them live their life. Singleton went beyond the typical stereotype gang movies by showing that even if you come from a rough neighbourhood you can still do positive things with your life.The scene that changes everything without spoiling the movie is the altercation, for those who haven't seen it i really recommend doing so, and for the other people who have should know which part i am referring to.The only thing that would be disappointing if they haven't already put this on the DVD version is an alternative ending scenes.

1 of the best film s

This is the standard by which any youth gangster movie should be judged.Moral, moving and utterly compelling, there is not one second of slack in thisgutsy coming of age tale of freinds growing up set amidst the squalor and violence of South Central L.A.Lawrence Fishbourne of Matrrix fame is the lynchpin as Furious , father of Trae, an intelligent kid in danger of being swept away by the gang vendettas around him.

Fair price
