Eminem Presents: The Anger Management Tour
Mega-platinum recording artist Eminem sticks to the basics in this live performance. There's a bit of talking, a few pyrotechnics, but mostly a lot of rapping (and swearing on the explicit version). Spanning his entire career, starting withThe Slim ShadyEP, the concert film features 20 tracks recorded in Em's Detroit hometown on the second Anger Management Tour (while in support ofThe Eminem Show). The crew from D-12 joins in on several numbers, like "Fight Music" and "Purple Pills--the audience often gets in on the action, too. Highlights include "Without Me," a solo "Stan," and of course, the Moby impersonator. The only "lowlight" is "Drips" (not one of Eminem’s finest moments as a writer). The concert, which took place on the tour's last night, is accompanied by a raucous behind-the-scenes glimpse at this groundbreaking hip-hop event, featuring G-Unit and Obie Trice.--Kathleen C.
