Rating: 4/5 --
The movie has inescapable verve, capturing why its subjects mean every bit as much as The Sex Pistols or Rolling Stones.

3.5 stars out of 4 -- [E]pic....An explosively entertaining hip-hop biopic that raps home truths about race and police brutality as timely now as they were during the 1980s in Compton, California.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3.5/4 --
There is so much going on in the lyrical wordplay of the music, much deeper than the critics who tend to focus on its violent imagery suggests.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
Rating: 3/5 --
Straight Outta Compton is confused as to whether we want to see NWA as the socially conscious group holding a mirror to society, or the string of debauched solo artists they became; the fact it tries to do both at once leaves it feeling confused.

Rating: 7/10 --
Gray and screenwriters Jonathan Herman and Andrea Berloff at times feel too handcuffed to the group's well-documented history, breaking up the rhythm of the story to check off a minor, well-documented detail of the journey.

Way Too Indie
An excellent biography that works on multiple levels.

Rating: 4/5 --
Straight Outta Compton proves as infectiously entertaining as it is educational thanks to F. Gary Gray's richly textured direction and a thumping soundtrack that confirms rap as the protest music of its time.

Product Description:
Entrenched in the racial tumult of Los Angeles in the mid-1980's, a group of aspiring rappers banded together to revolutionize the global consumption of hip-hop and popular culture. NWA was born out of racial frustration and the disadvantaged economics of their South Central neighborhood. F. Gary Gray directs this biopic about the rise to stardom for the act that earned the moniker of "The World's Most Dangerous Group", featuring Ice Cube's son O'Shea Jackson Jr. playing the role of his father, Corey Hawkins as Dr. Dre, and Jason Mitchell as the late Eazy-E.
