the movie is a classic, but i think it goes thru the effect that pioneers of anything go through where their successors did what they did but better(or people think they did it better) Thus making them look "overrated"

Menace to Society >>>>Boyz N The Hood
yeah Menace is better imo.

Boyz is great for what it was.

Only thing bad about the movie is Ricky getting shot in the back

I grew up here in LA and when nikkas will chase us in cars, we kept running through backyards avoiding the ally’s.. sometimes we would jump the fence knowing the car is going that way and we jump back over again and lose them

non existent soundtrack

could've used more of Angela Basset

Lawrence Fishburne's character could've been played by someone else.

Cuban as Trey :mjlol::mjlol:

:hhh:not as bad as South Central tho
your position on bith being overrated is totally irrelevant,singleton made a potent artistic statement on the condition of African people in south central La

If anything Juice is overrated to me.

I never got the whole premise of robbing old man quilez to get respect. I thought the DJ parts were poorly done for the most part. It's still a classic but they could've done better.

Only bad thing about Boyz to me was Cuba.

Why didn't Ricky just go to the side and hop over the fence :snoop:

That's why none of y'all could be a film director. Y'all would've had Ricky jump the fence make it home, eat some dinner and go to bed. :dead:

no bullshyt though that scene showing the different interrogations is one of the all-time great scenes. even better than Bill Duke in Menace. Now I guess someone is gonna come with the "you know you fukked up right?" scene.
