Anyone notice that nobody in media or the film critics, are critical of a movie which glamorizes violence, including violence against women???

Anyone notice that nobody in the media will say what NWA stands for????

There’s a real war on women in the black community fueled by attitudes pushed by rap. But nobody will talk about that as they praise this movie.

I wonder how its doing at the box office. Does middle America really want to see a movie about ghetto rap “artists” and their coming up out of the ghetto????

Sadly, yes. Suburban teens are the biggest consumers of rap.

It's a massive hit. $60 million opening weekend, doubling the $29 million production costs. The fifth biggest August opening in history and the biggest August opening for an R-rated film.

Yeah, they do. Buch of people here were making plans to see it opening day, racing to get tickets before they sold out. Not exactly the kind of people depicted...
