A good all round film a few mistakes but its still a good watch.

Rating: 7/10 (3 August 2006)

This film is basically the rap version of rocky. A story of a useless nobody who battles his way up to the top of his game.
I think Eminem is brilliant in it considering its his first film. Some of the moments in the film are very funny, and the rap scenes are the same top quality that we should expect from Eminem. However there are some bits that don't need to be in there and could of been edited out. i also feel that some of the more experienced actors aren't used to the ability they can create. Inparticular Kim's performance isn't that convincing because she is playing a totally unchallenging role. The fight sequences are well worked they all look real and aren't unbelievable they are kept simple and realistic.
So all over a good watch, could of been better but still worth a quick look. Better than i thought it would be. 7/10.
