The movie has no special effects, no exaggerated characters, no unbelievable plot, and truly shows the living environment and social status of blacks in the 1990s. As long as they get a gun, the blacks will kill people unscrupulously at will.

The protagonist’s parents divorced, and the mother gave up her son in pursuit of a better life and left it to his father. This child has been mixed with ice from time to time, and ice also has an older brother who loves to play rugby. Then they grow up and fall in love. Party, one night stand. . . . . .

Black people are drug dealers and alcoholics. Stealing things, bullying, robbery, all of them are shown inside. Ice's brother is about to get a scholarship to go to university. Maybe he will be on the road to success from the second time, but he shoots and kills. This shows that black people have very little chance of getting ahead. Sports music seems to have become them. The only chance is for ice and the protagonist to avenge, and the protagonist withdraws on the way. . . In the end, ice avenged his brother, and he was also killed, showing the helplessness and system of black life. .

Although this film will not be a Chinese story, I was sour in the end.

Finally, a song by ice cube interprets the theme of the movie

    A. John Singleton's debut in his early twenties is the representative work of black block movies. It should be a movie to watch with "Do What You Should". Singleton's work started from his own life. The environment makes it impossible to reproduce or even reproduce (see the director's later works), and a director only has this One is enough! When I was a child, I was not used to seeing blood and corpses. Because of African origin, I had a fight with my classmates. My father didn't hesitate to shoot at a possible thief (but he might be the hope of the neighborhood); It leads to lifelong disability or even the end of the rest of his life, and the baby witnesses a new cycle of death in the block; the black police shoot unreasonably at the black youth, and they are angry and want to escape from this fucking place. After leaving, everyone parted ways. Another major feature is that the plot is as brisk as the soundtrack.

Boyz n the Hood quotes

  • Furious Styles: Any fool with a dick can make a baby, but only a real man can raise his children.

  • Furious Styles: Why is it that there is a gun shop on almost every corner in this community?

    The Old Man: Why?

    Furious Styles: I'll tell you why. For the same reason that there is a liquor store on almost every corner in the black community. Why? They want us to kill ourselves.
