An absolute inspiration, Eminem did a great acting job.

Rating: Null/10 (11 February 2003)

This movie is an absolute inspiration. And I think it does deserve an award. For his ways, Marshall Mathers (Eminem) can act quite well. I was impressed. The movie took me to places I had never been. But the movie isn't about his life, contrary to popular belief. He didn't live in a trailor and he didn't get into fights with his mom. In the song "Cleanin Out My Closet", he apologizes and now has a healthy relationship with her. His character in the movie named Jimmy may have an attitude, but it's different from his attitude in real life. I loved 8 Mile and I would watch it again and again. It's a great film.
