About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, rebellious music-drama with strong performances and a gritty, nostalgic edge; Not for you if you dislike dramatized biopics, harsh content, or uneven pacing like some found in Straight Outta Compton.

Pros: energetic performances; nostalgic punk vibe; compelling rise story | Cons: uneven pacing; exaggerated portrayals; one-sided perspective
