8 Mile

Rating: 9/10 (26 March 2004)

Eminem's first was a hit with me. I think he played great in a musical/drama that will love you if you love it. This movie was great. Kim basinger plays Eminem's mom. She was very good at playing the washed up druggie who sleeps with anyone. (jk) Although I do think that all these singers who are trying to become movie stars are pushing the limits, especially J-Lo, but back to the subject. I would like you to know that the guy who wrote this movie has a great imagination and should be awarded. Also note that this movie was the biggest opening day for a rated R movie ever. (true fact) I am pretty sure it got thumbs up, and if it didn't Ebert and Rooper (sp?) had their eyes and ears shut the whole movie. If you are an Eminem fan you will appreciate this sad life story. If you want to tell me what you think email me. Love Nick Tara
