Reviews
SincereFinest disgusting, overrated, pointless
Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
christianaugustatanacio I'm not really into watching this type of genre but this one is different I did not get bored while watching the film and Eminem can really act to think that this is his debut film.
nicolasromeo 8 mile is the best movie i have ever seen. the story of this movie is about Eminem life and what he had done for become what he is now. from when everyone bully him to when everyone respected him and his music if you count Eminem is not an actor he done very well as a protagonist. I recommend this movie because Eminem is one of the best artist in the work and who follow him have to see it for understand what he went through when he was younger.
Robin It really captures the struggle of ''Jimmy 'B-Rabbit' Smith'' growing up in a suburban black neighborhood.. ''8 Mile''. 8 Mile is the place Eminem was growing up in as well. But the movie does not tell the full life story of Eminem in particular, instead it's more about the life of Jimmy Smith or as they call him 'B-Rabbit'.. Eminem and Rabbit have similar life styles, both had a tough upbringing, not a very sweet mother, trouble with money, trouble with life and trouble with making it BIG as an rapper. Jimmy 'B-Rabbit' Smith have all odds against him, he just need that spark to get up..
Elias Kruse Summary: I am a big Eminem fan (a Stan, mind you). So I watched this movie mostly for the prime reason of Eminem being one of the actors. I did not really have high expectations for this movie. It ended up as one of the best movies I have ever seen. I also ended up watching it a total of 7 times. Not getting bored a single time. I know the movie from the beginning to the end, story line is great. Interesting and mind capturing, great deliverance and all actors were decent to good, excluding Eminem who was a GOD as an actor. One of the very best one.The movie is about this fellow white "wannabe" rapper Jimmy, who is seeking a better live and wants to quit living with his mom. Actors: 8 / 10 - Plot: 9 / 10 - Story line/Events: 10 / 10 NOTE: Some actors were half decent, some very good. So that is why actors get an 8 out of 10. Recommended: YES! Great rap moments, tho should be noted if you're not into hip-hop this will not be a movie of your biggest interest.
