I don't love the later two, despite having great lead performances, but Boyz in the Hood is a great film, and Fishburne should have won the Oscar in 91 for his brilliant performance.

Whenever the film is brought up, all I can hear is, ♫"ooh child, things are gonna get easier"♫...<br /><br />John Q is another film I've been around my siblings while watching, but I only remember so much.
