From this comes the tale of one young man's dilemma as he navigates his way through his colliding worlds. Set against Detroit's hip-hop scene in 1995, the story centers on Jimmy Smith Jr., a young white rapper, who struggles to find his voice. The people of Detroit know '8 Mile' as the city limit or a border. It is also a psychological dividing line that separates Jimmy from where and who he wants to be, as he struggles to find the strength and courage to transcend his boundaries.

    Apart from it being MM and it having a little too much explicit material, it was overall better than I expected (which wasn't much)

    the outtakes of the poetry slams they used for tryouts were almost as good as the movie itself; really was blown away by the verbal facility of so many poets involved in this; an underdog triumphs in the end story that actually worked for me

    Hmmm. Eminem and I have a long history of not getting along. We seriously disagree on, well, everything that is even kind of important! Needless to say I skipped this one.

    I have to admit that Eminem is on of the most talented rappers around. Yeah, I said it. I give credit when it's due. Loved this one.

    Eminem will of course be hailed as the Godfather of Hip Hop, as Presley is "The King" of rock and roll. Whitewash all over again

    A pretty well drama about the background of one of the world`s most influncing singers ( although I am not into rap very much but it works very great with others especialy his songs). Anyway, the acting is the best thing in the whole movie and EMINEM surprisengly did well so as the other actors like Kim Basinger and Mekhi Phifer. I am usually against singers turned actors movies but this one just went great and had its moments especialy the rap battels and the song ROXX. The ending was okay but the problem that it came suddenly with no warnings that was bad for me but it didnot ruin the movie for me at least. A NICE RENTAL.

    With an excellent ensemble of supporting actors that lets Eminem capably carry the film, gritty atmosphere, and fantastic freestyle rap battles, 8 Mile rises above its familiar premise to be one of the very best dramas in past ten years.

    Again...few musicians have proven to be good actors. Eminem clearly isn't one of them. The song is tolerable, but the story sucked.

    what a great storyline...a financially struggling man who is eventually able to both make a better life for his depressed mother, his young, neglected sister, and himself...by using his biggest asset- his rapping and rhyme skills, and to overcome his own personal fears and struggles. it's about overcoming any kind of adversity using what natural talents you got. what a great message. love the soundtrack, by the way.
