One of the most eminent rappers of the modern day, Marshal Mathers, otherwise more popularly known as his stage name, Eminem, plays the role of Jimmy. Jimmy is also known as B-Rabbit. He is an aspiring rapper and wants to get out of the ghetto that he lives in. As a very poor young man, he believes his rapping talent can help him oust himself out of the ghetto and make a living as a rapper. Life is very difficult for Jimmy who is being beaten up by life from all sides. Jimmy must somehow find a way to succeed and become a rapper.
Rating: 3.5/5

I really loved this movie! Eminem is a great actor, and I'm not just saying that because I'm his biggest fan. He is actually, and truly, good. I wouldn't recommend watching this movie if you're not a fan of Eminem's 'cause the whole movie is about him, but even if you aren't a big fan of rap, I think you will still enjoy this movie a lot.
most awsome movie of all time !!!!!!!!! i am eminems biggest fan
Rap fans may like this; I'll take Led Zepplin or The Rolling Stones,
This is one of my favorite movies of all time - hands down - so whenever somebody asks me what one of my favorite movies are; I'll say '8 Mile'.
Eminem is an actor and a reactor.
Enough said.
the whole Sphinx's Princess series is amazing! I think it's Esther Freisner's best series. I love Nefertiti's character and the adventure this book is filled with. i recommend it!
It was O.K for a home TV movie. I was entertained and interesting. But it was NOT worth the long library wait or the price to rent from a Red Box. "I fast forwarded a lot but not all the way.”
looser ur self
I didn't think this movie was very good, but I think fans of Eminem would probably enjoy this. I'm just not a huge fan of bad acting. Other than that music isn't horrible, and the underdog story isn't that bad although it could have been scripted better.
