Good flick with some depth and intelligence

Rating: 7/10 (6 November 2002)

While not a perfect flick, this is an engaging story of an underdog, fish-out-of water-but-not-really, who struggles in economic and social hell. Eminem is good but sometimes over glorified and the supporting cast is quite good except Brittany Murphy who looks great but was written in as a plot device. It delves into a sub-cultre many would not otherwise have a chance to penetrate.
