"Great story about his life and how he got started. Great movie"

Elizabeth Sanders
"This gritty and authentic drama, directed by Curtis Hanson and starring Eminem, is a cinematic triumph that transcends its hip-hop roots to become a universal story of perseverance and self-discovery.
Eminem delivers a mesmerizing performance in his acting debut, portraying the struggling young rapper. His raw talent and charisma shine throughout the film, making the audience deeply empathize with his character's journey from adversity to triumph.
What sets it apart is its compelling storytelling and character development. It delves into the socioeconomic challenges faced by its characters, offering a poignant exploration of Detroit's underground rap scene. The film's music is not just a soundtrack but a narrative tool that propels the story forward.
The film's final rap battle scene is nothing short of iconic, a moment of cinematic brilliance that leaves a lasting impact. It's a testament to the film's ability to make you root for its characters and invest emotionally in their struggles and aspirations.
It is not just a great hip-hop movie; it's a great movie, period. It's a powerful and authentic portrayal of ambition, resilience, and the pursuit of dreams, making it a timeless classic. Whether you're a fan of hip-hop or not, this film is a must-watch."
"An older movie I haven’t seen in a while but I remember it being good. "
