A true African American movie

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
