AMAZING movie, if yall noticed, Frank Alexander (Pac's bodyguard RIP) also got some love, he was suppose to be the guy with Suge during the scene at the pool party who calls Suge away where Jerry is looking at Suge Knight from a far. He was rocking a Laker's jersey.
I'm speechless, I had really high expectations and this film blew them out the water, I was satisfied. Suge Knight threw his life away over how he was portrayed in the film SMMFH. It's funny b/c Dre was quiet af even after all that ? , the movie was prolly the first time he actually opened up about it and he didn't even paint Suge to be all that bad compared to how he could have done him. That's crazy how Dre doesn't even own the rights to 2Pac's music and it's a shame because some old jewish woman has the rights to his catalog SMMFH.
The part about him saying "Aftermath" was chilling to me, I liked it, because Dre knew that ship wouldn't last much longer the way Suge was running things - just as Cube knew with Jerry Heller it was only a matter of time. He closed that door and won. Dre was prolly gonna jump ship a long time ago, I think he just wanted to see if he could get the masters. That's why I think he only produced for Chronic, ? and a few songs for Murder Was The Case, Suge prolly realized that early, and that if Dre left so would Snoop, Warren G and the Dogg Pound. It prolly was Suge's narrow-mindedness to try and turn Pac against Dr.Dre so he could latch on to him.
Overall great movie, the competition I think was weak this year so it's possible this could win an Academy Award or at least several nominations. Bridge of Spies, Danish Girl, The Revenant and The Hateful 8 would likely be it's competition. Best Picture, Best Sound, Best Writing Adapted Screenplay, seem possible.
It's definitely a Hip-Hop classic, wish Dre woulda done a video for one of the tracks off his Compton album to carry the film. Always felt that every major movie had that - The Bodyguard/Whitney Houston, 8 MIle had Eminem with Lose Yourself, Batman had Seal, Armageddon had Aerosmith, etc. Woulda been dope af if Dre did that too.
Overall I'd rate it 8.8/10
Hold on @Sion, you watched the movie up to that point and came to the conclusion that the dude in the Lakers jersey was somebody else even though he had already been introduced as D.O.C.? -
Watched tonight
Great film... Def gunna cop that 3.5hr long director's cut Gary Gray said he dropin with the dvd/bluray
glad DOC kinda got some shine even tho there was no mention of his solo career & dude didn't get any type of lines. But at least his presence was on screen.
Yella was funny as the comic relief
People doubting Dre wildn out... Warren G said in a recent interview Dre was the wildest one out of the whole crew back then.
...interested to hear how Arabian Prince feels about the film

so you missed the scene where they get off tour and Suge picks up DOC and Dre tells someone he's managed by Suge?
so you missed the scene where DOC was ? in the studio being an ? and they told Dre to get his dude?
or the scenes right after when Dre gets a call that DOC was in a car accident? and then Dre visits him and Suge tells him his throat was crushed?
smh you need to go see the movie again mate, and not turn away or talk during it. -

Finally watched it last night, dope ass movie. The guy who played Eazy was great and Cube jr. killed it but the guy playin Dre irked me a little bit. He was good and had the voice/mannerisms down but man he dont look ? like Dre to me. Looked like he had a pile of makeup on his face too. The Pac guy was real good too.
But I didnt catch the Cube changing straws thing, what the hell are yall talkin about? -

That scene is right before they get harrassed by the black cop and white cops outside of the studio. They need to speak on it, hopefully it's in the directors cut in the DVD release.

The only time white feminists defend black women is when it's against black men. Where are they when white cops are beating on black women? -

I stumbled upon an article where they interviewed everybody on that cover, except Eazy for obvious reasons and Dre and Cube because they can't be bothered, and outside of the core group (Ren, Eazy, Cube, Dre, Prince) those other cats were random dudes that the record company got to pose for the cover. -
Watching again ....only the first half tho ....I ain't got 3 hrs today
