Editorial Reviews :
Rap star Eminem makes a strong movie debut in 8 Mile, an urban drama that makes
a fairly standard plot fly through its gritty attention to detail. Jimmy Smith
(Eminem), nicknamed B Rabbit, can’t pull himself together to take the next step
with his career—or with his life. Angry about his alcoholic mother (Kim Basinger)
and worried about his little sister, Rabbit lets out his feelings with twisting,
clever raps admired by his friends, who keep pushing him to enter a weekly rap
face-off. But Rabbit resists—until he meets a girl (Brittany Murphy) who might
offer him support and a little hope that his life could get better. Under the
smart and ambitious direction of Curtis Hanson (L.A. Confidential, Wonder Boys)
and ably supported by the excellent cast and the burnt-out environment of Detroit
slums, Eminem reveals a surprising vulnerability that makes 8 Mile vivid and
compelling.
