I feel like "Boyz n the Hood" doesn't get the props it deserves

Well it ain't gonna be everyone's life. But def something to relate too. Maybe I'm wrong, but I felt they didn't go overboard with how the characters were.

I'll give you that...

Well, I am from Cali and I don't know if I agree that the representation was really "on point" as you say.

What are the differences? I just assumed it was pretty authentic

Not that it was too much off, but:

1. They just skip a HUGE chunk of time in the developmental part of their lives.
I understand they did so to move the movie along, but it's pivotal to show that stuff
given the context of the movie. That's why I always appreciated The Wood.

2. Nobody's mother is gonna give straight up send her child to live with his Father
without some court doing it, no matter how "together" he seems to be.

3. Dough an'em was too close in proximity to Chris and dem Blood niccas for somebody
to die only at the end. Niccas usually stayed on their sides a little better than that...

4. At the end, Tre just goes to college and everything is just fine after that. Really?? Iono about that...
