Caine is one of best written character I've seen in a long time. The presentation of issues it tackles come in the form of protagonist Caine. Showing the protagonist being introduced to the criminal lifestyle at a young age, learning the benefits looking to reap them for himself, the gangsters coming off as loose individuals despite their activities, and the consequences of the long term of effect in this lifestyle. The plot of the film takes inspiration from 'Goodfellas'. Menace 2 Society is about a young street hustler attempts to escape the rigors and temptations of the ghetto in a quest for a better life. Whereas 'Boyz N The Hood' is an inspirational story about overcoming the harsh living violent environment with family 'Menace 2 Society' tackle the darker side of that criminal world. Both tackle the same thematic issues of crime among the youth in their harsh living environment, but in different ways.

'Menace 2 Society' is such a film that is a companion piece to 'Boyz N The Hood'.

For every classic there is a companion piece that while lesser known is equal in terms of quality.
