Wissenswertes
To maintain a sense of realism, writer and director John Singleton never warned the actors and actresses about when shots would be fired. Their reactions were real.

Patzer
When Ricky is shot, both of the shots exit from the right barrel of his double-barrel shotgun.

Zitate
Furious Styles: Any fool with a dick can make a baby, but only a real man can raise his children.

Crazy Credits
After the epilogue of what happens to Doughboy and Tre, the words "Boyz n the Hood: Increase the Peace" appears onscreen

Alternative Versionen
The Criterion Collection laserdisc features two scenes deleted from the theatrical version. They are as follows: Tre and his mother have a telephone conversation about his future with Brandi and college. Doughboy has a confrontation with Furious after Ricky gets shot.

A gripping tale about South Central L.A.

John Singleton's best film also proved to be one of my favorite movies about life in the streets. Cuba Gooding, Jr. displayed early on he was going to be a respectable actor. The power of the film has yet to be matched as most modern interpretations of street life prove to be violent stylizations. While Singleton has taken a couple missteps along the way, this film still stands up rather well by today's standards. The motives and actions appear realistic, especially Doughboy's thirst for revenge. A good film, which not only helped improve Laurence Fishburne's career, but introduced us to Gooding.
