Boyz N The Hood is on the level of the Godfather

[BrothaZay]

fucc u if you dont agree

I know you diccriders only listen to what the media tells you, and yall been brainwashed by these cacs to believe anything white>>anything blacc made

Boyz N The Hood is easily one of the best movies ever made. The racist blacc cop, the gentrification scene in compton, the mother hatin her own son, ricky getting killed right before going to college etc...

fucc the Godfather

menace ii society >>> boyz

I like juice better

 

[Black Ball]

menace ii society >>> boyz

I think saying this is like saying Scarface >>> The Godfather.

Yeah there is mad excitement & action, but on the level of being a quality film Boyz >>> Menace. As a cult classic Menace >>> Boyz

 

[KTD2]

The baptism scene of Godfather alone >>>>

And this is someone who likes Boyz in the Hood.

 

[Sinnerman]

nah godfather was the greatest film ever made. too many quotables

"Im going to speak italian to mike"
"Do you renounce Satan?"
"Leave the gun, take the cannoli"
i could go on and on

edit: lets not turn this into a racial thing. there is no other film on the godathers level

....I like Boyz N The Hood but c'mon man! I guess it depends on what you want from a film.

i disagree. menace is a more realistic and less romanticized take on the hood than boyz, with an authenticity that makes it a more engaging film than boyz.

charles dutton's character filled the role of laurence fishburn. his son was, in many respects, much like cuba gooding jr's. a good kid who hung with the wrong crowd. the grandfather was another positive voice in a world of violence that young caine ignored to his detriment. everything that you give props to boyz for (crooked and racist cops, shady bytches, the moral tug of war taking place within the protagonist's soul, etc.) exists in menace, only in a much more genuine form.

i almost feel like boyz is the white boy version of the hood.

That's not fair to Boyz because it had the burden of coming out 1st. Also I thought O-Dog made for a great movie character, but also was a bit sensationalized as far as realism.

dudes like o-dog really exist.

 

[BrothaZay]

Boyz n the hood is just as realistic as M2S.

And yea odog was kind of far fetched, especially since he was only posed to be like 15-16

 

[Kalik]

I knew O-Dog type people... except he aint dead and still doing dumb shyt in his early 30s. I don't know how he still alive, and beating the laws.

that sermon laurence fishburn's character gave in front of the billboard wasn't realistic. it felt like the director preaching to the audience.
