- I watch BOYZ N THE HOOD (1991) for the FIRST TIME!
Movie Summary:
Tre (Cuba Gooding Jr.) is sent to live with his father, Furious Styles (Laurence Fishburne), in tough South Central Los Angeles. Although his hard-nosed father instills proper values and respect in him, and his devout girlfriend Brandi (Nia Long) teaches him about faith, Tre's friends Doughboy (Ice Cube) and Ricky (Morris Chestnut) don't have the same kind of support and are drawn into the neighborhood's booming drug and gang culture, with increasingly tragic results.

Higher Learning is considered Doughboy’s alternate ending
Love Higher Learning! John Singleton make some great movies (RIP)
Mr. Flicks, please React to Higher Learning
Love that movie but never heard of it being referred to in that way. Sounds like a reach.
@@carladavis1473 same here
Never thought of it like that
"I'll get my daddy. At least I got one mf" 😂😂😂 that's forever gonna be my favorite line
I saw this in the theater with my best friend, and when this dude died, these girls were like four rows up in front of us, and they were laughing, it might not have had anything to do with the movie, but I took it to heart, and I threw my popcorn at them. I was definitely feeling some type away after this movie.
Whoa! I feel u on that one. 😢 I do not blame u. I was about 12 when this movie finally came on tv or in the Blockbuster store in the early 90s. Respect to u for doing that. ❤
My mom didn’t have me until she was 34 and she still super active in her early 70’s. It depends on the person.
My dad was almost 45 when I was born. He just turned 79 and he's still active.
The dead body part is an homage to Stand By Me. It was one of a John Singleton’s favorite films, and the railroad tracks were another nod.
Yup.
Hah, i never realised that well pointed out
More than that though, Stand By Me was considered a formative move for white kids. This set out to be a formative movie for black kids in the same way.
Respect is earned. Politeness is automatic.
Deja vu! Seeing Cuba in the chair getting his hair cut made me think of him as the barber customer in Coming to America.
He also appeared on 227 & Amen.
Not traumatizing myself again. I was broken as a child when I saw this. I grew up in this type of neighborhood. This happened to my cousin and I remember watching his bleeding body lay stiff. I was 8. So, I avoid this movie at all cost. Leaving the like and comment for the algorithm.
❤
I don’t care what nobody says they should have NEVER TAKEN RICKY HOME!! They done traumatized the baby, the mama and the girlfriend! That baby screaming like that kills me every time. 😢
My dad had me at 21, but he was really mature for his age- worked two jobs and bought a house by age 23.
Damn. I think all of us who didn't have a dad needed Furious Styles. How many problems could have been avoided?
💪
This movie reminds me of a friend of mine who was shot and killed. He was killed and a few years later his brother committed suicide. My heart breaks for his mom, burying her 2 oldest boys.
And YES you should definitely check out Straight Outta Compton.
If you haven’t seen it yet, The King Of New York with Laurence Fishburne and Christopher Walken is crazy.
Yes, Angela's character was already doing well but got her master's degree and became even more successful in her career. So yes, when older Tre was on the phone with her on the couch, she was living in a very luxurious place.
I’ll be 40 this year and I remember when making it to 25 made you an OG
Hell, making it to 18.
Omg. 😢
More Iconic ages are 18 20 and 21 years old Cause at 18 you get Adult rights 20 you're no longer a Teen your a real Adult and at 21 you get all Adult rights in America
Where I lived being in for 10 yrs and being alive was og status and I mean gang related.Everywhere is different.
I grew up on Public Housing Projects in LA. Housing projects are a totally different animal than growing up in hoods that are houses next to each other. Our hood had concrete block 3 story apartments that had 6 different gangs fighting for territory within the same projects so you couldn’t cross certain streets or you get hit up or shot at. Most projects have maybe 1 or 2 gangs present but ours had 6 so the city of LA tore them down because of the drugs and violence. What we experienced growing up there was 10x more dangerous than in this movie. We attended funerals maybe twice a month. But the government knows why they drop the poorest of the poor in public housing and it’s not to help
❤❤❤
16:12 was a diss to Eazy-E because the ice cube/NWA beef was at its height in 1991 when this movie came out. They purposely put the Eazy-E sweatshirt on crackhead during that beat down as a subliminal message 😂
Dang! I hated all the beef, but some of the diss videos were funny.
I don't know how many times I've watched this movie and never noticed the shirt
“Never respect someone who don’t respect you” I agree
Yes, I saw it in the movies. Besides Laurance and Angela Nia and Regina King. Nia was on the "stories" 😅 soap opera, and Regina was on 227. I remember everybody was out loud expressing their disbelief that little Brenda was chugging down a forty. 😂😂😂 "Not little Brenda!!!"
I dont know why I was expecting Tre to grow up and be played by Omar Epps
29:28 the mailman who brought the test scores was a cameo from the director of the film John Singleton.
Straight outta Compton was about Eazy-E and his group NWA. Cube was a rapper in NWA.
This movie always hurt me. Cuz I lost my first love to gun violence.. in a way he was doughboy… I felt so much pain in this movie.. his brother got killed 3 weeks after my first love birthday after my ex was already dead for a year… now his mother has lost both of her sons..
I put this in the category of other movies like American History X...this should be required viewing for every person in America around the age of 15. We outwardly coddle our teens a bit too much in this country while we know that they're watching much worse. We need to openly discuss realities of our nation that are generally parts that are forced into the shadows that we try to forget (until politicians talk about fixing them to get elected). When we ignore or forget the bad, we are definitely doomed to continue repeating it. Damn, that scene where Ricky dies gets me every time. When his girl lets out that scream in the house, it's heart wrenching.
Also, about the respect question: My default is that I respect everyone that I don't know, but it doesn't take much for someone to lose that respect through their own actions. So, yeah, never lose compassion or someone, but respect can be lost pretty quickly.
It's even worse living in Canada
Yeah the exact name of the actor who played as Ricky is Morris Chestnut,and yeah Boyz-N-The Hood was Ice Cube's Big Movie Debut.
And the name of the other song that you also liked & was vibing to is called Just Me & You by Toni Tony Tonie,and The Boyz-N-The Hood Movie Soundtrack is also another great classic soundtrack too.
My father was my enemy until I realized I ended up smarter and better than him. Now we’re friends.
I had my first at 40…I’m glad honestly, I wasn’t ready when I was younger so there are some disadvantages about now being that young, but I can give my daughter a better life because I waited.
This movie will forever be iconic bro! One of my favorite movies from childhood to adulthood.
The cop put a gun to tre throat and then got the nerve to say have a good evening 😢
3:20 - Sorry for your loss, man. I didn't know my mother either. My father died when I was barely a year old, his mother filed for custody of me, my mother signed the paperwork, dropped me off, and left town. So, I never knew either of my parents.
5:05 - Good for you, man! My grandmother had a tough time with me, but like you, I appreciate what she did to raise me right.
11:10 - Sadly, the perception in many areas (not just predominantly black areas, either) you can either "be smart", or "be tough". I grew up in a fairly diverse area, where the smart kids were bullied quite a bit. The worst part is that same narrative still exists, but is focused on in black areas, and "swept under the rug" in non-black areas. It still happens, but the public perception has been skewed by the media. Much like drug addiction... it happens everywhere, but is presented as a HUGE problem in non-white areas, and it is kept conveniently quiet in more affluent areas. Or, more accurately; poor areas are the focus of the public exposure, while "middle class" areas are hardly ever shown to have the problems. I'd be willing to bet that horrific things happen in wealthy areas, but is hardly ever covered because they can pay to have the attention focused elsewhere, to keep "their lessers" divided and living in fear of one another.
12:55 - To give you some perspective; I grew up in Baltimore City. An area that was "getting worse" during the turbulent 1970s. In 1979, we moved to Baltimore County, just a couple of miles outside the city/county border. I was 12 years old when we moved, and I've seen this area deteriorate over the last 45 years. Back in 2014, my wife and I moved into a house she owned after my grandmother died (she was in her 90s). A bit closer to the city line, but it's a quiet street. Not much happens here, but the area around it is another story. I've been lucky. A lot of people I grew up with are in the ground now.
21:55 - Furious spitting FACTS here. In the 90s, I was still a bit insulated from "this part of life", and this movie helped open my eyes to the struggles of others. Things that I saw, but never actually pieced together.
25:20 - Yep. Cops on a power trip. They got away with it because they knew other cops would back them up.
Another movie you should check out if you haven't seen it yet, is "Blood In, Blood Out: Bound by Honor". It's along these lines, as well. It, too, has a cast of young stars, as well as a few established ones.
My heart goes out to you. I loved your comments as well.
Dude, one of my cousins had her first kid at 17 then was a grandmother at 34. Crazy.
Yes I'm old enough to remember seeing this in the theater. Infact, everyone I knew saw it several times. When Ricky got shot, it had everybody crying. If you ever hear older people yelling, "Ricky!" instead of just saying the name, now you will understand. Lol We aren't crazy, but it was traumatic.
The line, "Either they don't know, don't show, or don't care about what's going on in the hood." is a classic quote.
Angela Bassett and Lawrence later did what love got to do with it after this. And also did Akeelah and the bee together with Keke Palmer.
Straight out of Compton is a great movie too. It’s the story of the rap group Ice cube was in NWA, it’s the story of how he Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, Yella and MC Ren all got famous
Yes. Oshea Jackson Jr played his father, Ice Cube.
11:31 The birth of the Riley Freeman laugh. I closed my eyes and saw Huey, Grandad, Tom, all getting clowned by Riley.
Great Reaction! Yes Cuba was in Radio and you definitely have and need to watch Men of Honor also starring Robert De Niro based on a true story. Would love to see your reaction to that.
I loved moh
This movie is the quintessential hood classic. This was the first coming of age movie i first saw this in theaters at the age of 10 years old while i was visiting family in Fresno, California. Rewatching this as an adult i realize that Ricky wasn’t street smart due to him being coddled by his mother. He laughed at Trey when Trey told him that he was afraid to have sex, he was scared when Furious took them to Compton & he didn’t take Ferris & his crew serious when they coming for him. Brenda favoritism towards Ricky did more damage to Doughboy than the hood ever did & Brenda lost both of her sons as a result of her favoritism. The scene when the self hating crusty lip ass cop pull the gun on Trey gave him chills. Of course the scene when Ricky was killed & when Doughboy avenged Ricky’s death gave me chills as well.
Fun Facts: Will Smith was offered the role of Trey but declined due to The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
Please watch the following the following movies:
Cornbread, Earl & Me. It’s Laurence Fishburne’s first movie.
Cooley High
New Jack City
South Central
Menace II Society
Fresh
New Jersey Drive
The Wood
Roll Bounce
ATL
Dope
In Loving Memory Of
John Daniel Singleton
(1/6/1968-4/28/2019)
This movie is one of my all time favorite movies. It kills me every time. It is just so real and we know it happens all the time. And nothing changes :( and seeing Rick get shot. The one who stayed out of all the crime, all the drama. He was focused on going to school. It just hits so hard. I’m very happy you watched this.
Yeah this movie was great! Way overdue to watch this but better late than never!
Hope you’re doing great bud! 🤞🏽
When you say "got damned," God knows what you're doing there, and He isn't fooled! 🙂
😅
Bro, this was one of the most impactful movies I’ve ever seen in my entire life
I had my first kid at 15 😅 and she turns 15 this year & I had my second at 26. It’s quite a difference lol so I know what you mean
Lets get another great John Singleton movie reaction... (Higher Learning).
The cast is crazy good.
Yeah. I saw it in the theater when it came out. Everybody got so upset😢when Ricky was shot... anger. Frustration, gasps some people hopped out of their seats, girls crying and screaming. Etc.
This movie is at the top of my list of favorite movies, because of how real it is
A devastating but great hood classic. Great reaction bro! 👍🏿
"Apocylpse Now" is another classic (probably the most iconic war movie ever) that has a young Lawrence Fishburne in it but his role is a smaller one in this
Hard to explain how we felt leaving the theater after seeing this. One things for sure, it felt good to see our lives being accurately represented on a screen in a realistic way. Back then, we knew what the hood was like but the rest of the world did not.
Got off work out the shower was ready to eat I was looking for a video to watch while i eat saw this and was like "Yeah this the one" also if you haven't seen "Menace to society" you're basically obligated to watch it after boyz n the hood lol
9:25 *singing* 🎶ooh, child… wtf happened??…🎶
😂🤣 cracked me tf up
The one scene I felt was cap was the USC recruiter’s reaction to Ricky having a baby. There was a huge uptick of teen pregnancies and parents in the nineties. It would not have been unusual at all for a young black man from Crenshaw in the 90’s to have a baby in high school.
His reaction was to show the difference between a black man outside of the hood to some of the realities of black men in th hood. Even though he is black, he was put off by the fact thi young man had a child, just like he was put off to the fact that helicopters were flying over him when he was outside, very subtle.
@@IEMprod. good point
Saw it in the theater, teen boys sitting in back of us said "Father or not, they would have shot Furious" when he was trying to get Tre to give him the gun 😳...they were dead serious. I was glad it said that Doughboy was killed 2 weeks later, to show it's a neverending cycle of violence and death...sadly, those that needed to get that message didn't...they just saw it as a noble way to go (after getting revenge for his brother's death). All these years later, nothing has changed 😢😢😢
I got pregnant at 26 and gave birth to my daughter at 27. I'm glad I waited a little while. I watched all my friends have their children in their teenage years. And they never got to experience adulthood the way I did. My friends wanted to go out to bars and clubs at 25 and I was already done with that and met the man that I would later marry and start a family with by that age.
I clicked and came straight to the comments because I know good and well you’ve watched this movie!!! 😭🥺okay… time to watch lol
This was a good one. I love how they sprinkle up and coming rappers (Yo Yo was the most obvious at the cookout) in this movie and local people. Even the night on the strip with the locals, especially when somebody actually started shooting. I forget if it was Cuba or Ice got hurting running to safety. If you looking for suggestions I would looooove, you take it back back: Coolie High, Cornbread Earl and Me (Laurence Fishborne first movie,) or John Travolta in White Man's burden? I want to also thank you for your reactions, you always have a positive spin on life. ❤
You gotta give respect to earn respect. So it’s not wrong to not respect those who don’t respect you.
You should check out Cuba in Men of Honor with Robert De Niro, you haven’t seen it.
"Ooooo chile, what the freak happened?" 😂🤣
Love your reaction video man!!! 🔥 🔥 this movie boyz n the hood was so sad. 😞
My best friend had his first 3 kids by 20 years old, and we're both 40 years old now. All 3 of his kids are adults now. I had my kids at 33. He and his wife can live it up now and are barely in their 40s. I'll be in my 50s before that happens. Lucky bastard 😅
You sir are reacting to a classic 💯❤️ please keep the content coming
Don’t be a menace while drinking juice in the hood made fun of this movie. Hilarious.
Theater near my house in San Diego had shots fired IN the theater when this movie came out. I was just a kid but remember the stories.
Don't forget Glory or Rosewood (if you haven't seen them)
I saw this in the theater. Was there for another movie and got to see a premiere of this one. It definitely had a major impact then. I find it difficult to watch now. But agree with the message. Angela Bassett and Lawrence Fishbourne were the biggest actors in this movie. Ice Cube was well known but still new to acting. I think this was his first major film. Regina King was known for TV and just starting to transition to movies. Cuba Gooding Jr, Nia Long and Morris Chestnut were all fairly new actors when this came out.
I’m 44 when I was a kid a seen this in the movie, when Ricky died it was sooooo crazy in the theater😢😢😢 thinking about it now get me crying
Love the reaction big fella keep it up
The complete concept was excellent. . So true. I raised my only son as a single parent from the age of 7. His mother left us ( her only child) to live the life of a crackhead. With a lot of sacrifice he's grown married 4 children and a Train engineer.
Love the vibe homie. Subbed
I’m subscribed good honest reaction.
Watched this in the theatre twice back in the day.
The biggest star at the time was Cube. At the time of release, his first solo album wasn't even a year old yet and this was also his first movie. Fishburne (who was being credited as Larry at the time) only did minor characters up until this. Angela Bassett only played a stewardess and a tv reporter before this. In addition to everyone else, everybody definitely did things before this but you can definitely make a case that other than Cube, the general audience didn't know who any of these people were until this movie came out. If you look up any actor in this film that is now a household name it's pretty surprising to see how early in their career this movie was.
I've dealt with and seen this type of stuff. I was the "Religious guy" the "Talented Guy with the most going for them" but i knew when to run or fight that kept me alive. Everyone in the hood use to call me "The Golden Child." from that Eddie Murphy movie because my family dressed like that.
16:10 Ice Cube told John Singleton to put the “We Want Eazy” shirt on the crackhead as a subtle diss to Easy E who Ice Cube was beefing with at the time (1989-1990).
My cousin became a dad at 41 . Age is only a number .
My dad had my sister at 44 I believe! Now I have a 6 year old sister at the age of 29 lol it happens!
@@mrflickswatches he's also a stay at home dad .which sadly is frowned upon . The wife makes the money in real estate. I'm like hey nothing wrong with that. Also if you like coming of age films check out stand by me. It's with Jerry o connel river phoinex will Wheaton and a young Kiefer Sutherland.
@@mrflickswatches First time on your channel. Will check out more. A little too much stoppage, if you want some small critique. Back in the early 90's....no new kid on the block, was ever going to take down any major awards, like Best Actor, Film of the year. ....which is what John Singleton was at the time, and may he RIP. You almost have to earn your stripes first for that stuff. However, this movie was very ground breaking, was well acknowledged at the Oscars, and launched a lot of careers. Ice Cube was a big name at the time, but mainly for his music, not film. Every actor in this film was tremendous, You really can't conjure up any bad performance. There really was nothing like this at the time, that showed what life was like in the inner city. Like Doughboy said the news showed 'nothing about my brother'.
Great review and reaction 😃!
Used to have this movie on VHS and the T-shirt. lol
One of my fave cuba gooding jr movies was Gladiator 1992, legit chi town classic.
Lost several high school friends, a brother-in-law and my ex-husband to gang violence. Our house got shot up with an Uzi. Several other friends were shot but lived. Had a long time friend who was more like my own brother murdered by guys his sister and I went to elementary school with. It's sad. Not anywhere near that life, left it behind almost 30yrs ago.
A friend of mine saw this first at the time it came out and said she cried. I watched shortly after and didn't cry. It just made me angry and upset. No different now.
Sorry for your loss brother.
Boyz n the hood was the perfect drama
Menace to society was the perfect night mare
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!😊😊😊😊
Rest in peace to your mom
I lost my moms when I was 11, it still hurts
There’s that one movie I think it’s on Netflix called life in a year that has Nia Long and Cuba gooding junior playing Jaden Smith’s parents. The ending is a pyric ending. Something happy happens but at the same time something really sad happens like doughboy dying too
It was a shootout at the cinema amongst gangs when released in theaters in LA
Them dudes was doing hits while listening to Monie love in that red car
That song was by the group Tony Toni Tone
This movie rings true from LA to a small town in Texas. It happens in all communities, from Chinatown to Spanish Harlem or banging in Little Rock. Unfortunately, it’s still happening.
If the "biggest star" is based on who the people bought a movie ticket to see, it's Ice Cube. The movie trailer had a song off his solo debut album on it, showed him kicking somebody's a** (which was just him punching his brother) but yea REGINA KING was fresh off a tv sitcom, NIA LONG was Nia "unknown" and ANGELA BASSETT was probably seen by more people on the 1 episode of "227" she got a part on which REGINA KING starred on. FISHBURNE was a former child actor trying to rise up. He was in a few big movies with small roles. ICE CUBE brought the audience which makes him the biggest star at the time.
Hey man, I know this an old vid and shit, but I've been binging your stuff for a few days now. Totally interesting to see your reactions to films that, to me, are solid classics.
Here's a suggestion based off of this video-- if you're down with this movie, and haven't yet seen Menace 2 Society, do a first time react to that.
Menace 2 Society is for sure like the "grittier" version of this film. In my opinion, just as good and just as classic as this one, but in a different way.
Anyway, that's my suggestion. Keep doing your thing dude.
Bro hit that note
Bro, you HAVE to watch Mr. Nobody with Jared Leto... It's my friends and my all-time favorite. It is mind-boggingly beautiful. You'll have a marvelous video out of that and raise awareness for this under-the-radar MASTAPIECE!
My dad and I cried to this fr
Morris chestnut, baby momma was so fine, lord have mercy.
I named my daughter Dayjah because of Higher learning🙋❤
I saw this is the theater and I cried when Ricky was killed. It was nominated for Movie of the year but lost to some critically acclaimed movie called Chariots of Fire that nobody ever saw. Best Movie that year!
You don’t have to like them, agree with them or even be friendly, but I believe you should show everyone a modicum of respect whether they show you that same respect or not.
Ice Cube was still rapping at the time
The very first time that I saw this movie was when it came out on VHS and Home Video.
Bro DEFINITELY watch Radio and Straight Outta Compton
