Yeah I wasn't going to get to go during parenting time or valuable date night time, so I just went. Definitely worth it. It is a long movie, though. With trailers, it was almost 3 hours.
Just saw the opening weekend numbers. $60.2 million. Highest grossing R rated movie ever in August. Made more than Rogue Nation and Ant-Man. 8th biggest opening weekend of the year. All on a $29M budget. Sequels may happen.
Definitely agree with Strickland that it was well acted. It's always weird to (be old enough to) see biopics about people you remember. The dude who played Easy E was Easy E. Eerie. I hope O'Shea Jr gets work aside from playing his dad or roles his dad would play. He's got talent. Dude who played Dre was very good. And Ren and Yella have nothing to complain about their portrayals. They were sidekicks, but the film did right by them. Aldis Hodge is a strong actor. I'd like to see him get a lead role along the way.
I was really impressed with their choices with the music. What to use in the studio, what to use in concerts, what to use in the background. The cameos were excellent. Suge was what you'd expect Suge to be.
