    Incredible movie

    by redyeah

    Thsi is one of those movie one could watch over and over and still never tire of. The cast is immaculate. The plot is well developed. The dialogue is spot on. And poor Morris Chestbut. Cried when I was a kid, and it still gets me.

    Great Movie

    by 619boy531

    This was a very good movie. It was pretty sad. It had a great cast, great story. Ice Cube, Cuba Gooding, & Morris Chestnut were amazing in this movie. You should see this movie if you haven't.

    by Ruby_Redz

    Very good movie. John Singleton did an exception job depicting the lifestyle of urban ghetto life.
    The cast Cuba, Morris Chestnut, Ice Cube, Angela Laurence, and Nia Long were extremely superior in their characters. They were very convincing in capturing the urban lifestyle.
    I found this movie to be very realistic, and hit home for me, that it was actually scary in a real life scenario; I have only seen this movie once. I can only see once.
