When five young men translated their experiences growing up in the dangerous streets of Compton, California into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Set in the mid 1980’s following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A., STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON tells the astonishing story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war.
“This is a monster film. You will walk out feeling like you have been entertained, educated and emotionally fulfilled.” —Dwight Brown “The filmmakers have made a fiercely political movie that’s an equally fierce ‘talk back to the screen’-style crowd-pleaser for folks eager to hear the tale of an influential rap group.” —Odie Henderson, rogerebert.com “Timeless in its depiction of how artists and writers transform the world around them into angry, profane, vibrant and singular personal expression.” —Scott Foundas, Variety
