Sara S It's a movie that takes you where you might not want to go, and makes you care about hell in a very small place.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review K W Lewd and violent, but undeniably affecting. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/25/25 Full Review JP K Trumps Boyz by an LA mile. MIIS casts LA's most favored sunshine via the prism of South LA urbanology. It's authentic yet staged, poetic without preaching too much, and headed toward a destination we all know it's going. That's not the point. The great achievement of the Hughes Bros is in exposing the ennui, the junk culture of today's youth that feeds them nothing but stimuli and zero insight, meaning and value calories. It's what Somalian Mohammad Ali so aptly calls, "waithood;" a sprawling warehouse of blunt force aimlessness. We know where Caine's headed, the questions then become, where's a generation raised like this headed? And what does this say about an America that turns its back on them? Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 04/19/25 Full Review Cameron L The atmospheric scenery of down and out ghettos is well lit, and the story is although predictable, it's an extremely engaging one. The violence isn't exploitive, but rather realistic and brutal. O-Dog is very funny too and ruthless Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Audience Member I'm a therapist and one of my clients recommended that I watch this movie, and he comes from a rough and criminal background himself so I was curious to watch it. This was a more powerful film than I expected it to be. There were scenes with irony, parallels, and directing/shots from the camera that stood out. Around every corner, there are intense exchanges and events just waiting to explode, and many times they do!! The only gripes I have about the film were that there were some slower scenes that could've been shortened (however the movie is only an hour and a half after all) and I also wish that there was more justice and payback for O-Dog (Caine's friend with the braided hairstyle, who I felt was even worse than HIM). Nevertheless, this is an important and powerful sociocultural film and piece of work for everyone in U. S. society to witness at least once.
