HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAH September 12, 2009 ANRAE GODLEY-COOPER (Iraq) Great movie, it shows with a little help and hope we can all change for the good!
Great Movie - Not Just About Gangs January 31, 2009 Iris Flowers (Houston, TX USA) I saw this movie years ago and what resonated with me more than anything was the portrayal of a man changing. When I saw the DVD for sale a while back, I just had to buy it for my clients. I use this movie as a tool for open discussion in cognitive groups as well as parenting groups. While the acting wouldn't be considered Oscar-worthy and some of the dialogue is sophmoric, the message of the movie far outweighs its flaws. Inspirational, powerful, and sometimes thrilling!

Worth watching. August 5, 2006 Forever Chaos (Pennsylvania) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
...but it makes me sad the level of truth behind it. What makes me sadder is that this kind of mentality still exists today. I would definitely rank this one up with the likes of Boys in The Hood and New Jack City.
Boys drop hoods June 4, 2006 Pit O'Maley (Alameda, Ca United States) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
One of the overlooked gang movies, with exceptional realism against the same backdrop as "Boyz n Hood," the undeserved Hollywood-styled movie. "South Central," on the other hand, gets more from the cast and B-movie economics than "Hood." The director and writer narrow the aim and score more for doing so, in my opinion. Of those who play at violence, the plot centers on one who owns up to his bad ways and pays the price. Gang warfare, the soup de jour of Hollywood, makes too much money off bad languange and violence. This B-movie responsibly shows the price for dead-end lifestyles that embrace drugs and violence as the only alternatives. Gang warfare is as obsolete today as dueling in the 16th Century. This is one movie that asks its youth to take responsibilty,reform themselves through self-education,not to waste their freedom that comes with deadly consequences.
