Our take

A stone-cold 90s classic, this landmark coming-of-age drama set in the American ghetto stars an even cooler cast: including Ice Cube, Cuba Gooding Jr., Morris Chestnut, & Regina King. So fresh is this film that director John Singleton set the record for the youngest director nominated at the Oscars®!
