A Nice Musical!

Rating: 9/10 (28 April 2008)

8 Mile is a very good musical. I was reluctant to see this at first, but I got this on Christmas of last year so I had to see it. 8 Mile stars Eminem as a white rapper. He lives in Detroit and his whole life is messed up including family life. He appears in rap battles, but can't seem to win. All the sudden, his talent is recognized. What will happen? You just have to find out. First off, that acting was actually better than I thought. They all had great chemistry together. I liked Kim Cattrall as the mother. Second off, the music was great. I am not a big fan of rap music, but I liked the the songs especially "Lose Yourself." Finally, this movie has many apparent messages hidden through the plot. They focus on how to live up to your dreams. Overall, this is a great film. Children should be advised with all the cussing and use of drugs. I rate this film a 9/10.
