Corey Hawkins & Jason Mitchell – Dr. Dre & Eazy-E (Straight Outta Compton)
Straight Outta Compton did a solid job in retelling the story of the infamous rap group, with a strong performance from O’Shea Jackson as his own father, Ice Cube. Although the movie told their story well, it had a few missteps with its casting.
Corey Hawkins and Jason Mitchell just didn’t do a good enough job of portraying how major of an impact they had on America when they were at their peak. Neither actor seemed to show the big personality we’d imagine Eazy-E or Dr. Dre having.
