Editorial Review:
Description: "Eminem wins by a knockout!" raves Rolling Stone, as the Grammy Award-winning phenomenon makes his feature film debut in this gripping story about the boundaries that hold us back - and the courage that can set us free. For Jimmy Smith, Jr. (Eminem), life is a daily fight just to keep hope alive. Feeding his dreams in Detroit’s vibrant music scene, Jimmy wages an extraordinary personal struggle to find his own voice - and earn a place in a world where rhymes rule, legends are born and every moment… is another chance. From Academy Award winner Curtis Hanson (L.A. Confidential) and Oscar-winning producer Brian Grazer (A Beautiful Mind), 8 Mile is the triumphant film Time Magazine hails as "Powerful!" and Entertainment Weekly applauds as "Electrifying and Mesmerizing!"
Amazon.com: Rap star Eminem makes a strong movie debut in 8 Mile, an urban drama that makes a fairly standard plot fly through its gritty attention to detail. Jimmy Smith (Eminem), nicknamed B Rabbit, can't pull himself together to take the next step with his career--or with his life. Angry about his alcoholic mother (Kim Basinger) and worried about his little sister, Rabbit lets out his feelings with twisting, clever raps admired by his friends, who keep pushing him to enter a weekly rap face-off. But Rabbit resists--until he meets a girl (Brittany Murphy) who might offer him support and a little hope that his life could get better. Under the smart and ambitious direction of Curtis Hanson (L.A. Confidential, Wonder Boys) and ably supported by the excellent cast and the burnt-out environment of Detroit slums, Eminem reveals a surprising vulnerability that makes 8 Mile vivid and compelling. --Bret Fetzer

I was impressed with this movie. Usually when singers (or rappers) make a movie, it is subpar. But the plot was great. Even though it focused on a fictional character, it mirrored Eminem's life (aka. Marshall Mathers). This is a good movie, and it does earn it's "R" rating with language and some sexual content. So it would not be good for the younger viewers.
You will really enjoy this movie if you are a fan of Eminem or enjoy rap/hip-hop. All the music in the movie is rap/hip-hop and ... Read More

I probably would have appreciated this movie more, except for the fact that i saw it at a party, which usually takes away from a movie. As i sat on the couch, during the final freestyle showdown, my friends crowded around the TV, and as Eminem, "jammed to the sick beats", all my friends cheered "yo! that was some illen rhymin' dawg"...as if they understood anything he said. That kind of made enjoying the movie difficult, but the end scene was still amazing. Aside from a few silly things, this movie ... Read More

Ever since his first single "My Name Is" hit the airwaves in 1998, Eminem has become a household name and with each album he releases, his listening audience is privy to the intimate details of his life. His candid alliterations have alluded to his mother's drug abuse, his strained relationship and estrangement from ex-wife Kim, a tumultuous childhood and his troubles with the law. Now comes a film that mirrors his hard-knock life and road to stardom (names and events changed for dramatic effect, ... Read More
