Rabbit' Smith, Jr.]; Kim Basinger [Stephanie Smith ( Jimmy's Mom)]; Mekhi Phifer [David 'Future' Porter]; Brittany Murphy [Alex (Jimmy's basic one night stand]; Evan Jones [Cheddar Bob]; Omar Benson Miller [Sol George]; Proof [Lil' Tic], Obie Trice [Second Parking Lot Rapper], Xzibit [Male Lunch Truck Rapper], and Taryn Manning [Janeane].

Writer: Scott Silver; and I believe EMINEM wrote some too.

Producer: Paul Rosenberg, Curtis Hanson, Carol Fenelon, Gregory Goodman, Brian Grazer, Jimmy Iovine, Stuart Parr, and James Whitaker.

Tagline: Find Your Voice; Every moment is another chance., Look; What if You Had One Chance to Seize Everything You Ever Wanted? Would You Capture it? Or Would You Let it Slip?; Every Moment is a Chance to Turn it Around.; Lose Yourself In the Music; If the streets had a voice, this would be the story they'd tell; Helt Eminemt [Denmark]

Plot: The people of Detroit know 8 Mile as the city limit, a border, a boundary. It is also a psychological dividing line that separates Jimmy Smith Jr. (Eminem) from where and who he wants to be. 8 Mile is a provocative fictional examination of a critical week in Jimmy's life, starring multi-platinum recording artist Eminem in his first leading role in a feature film, along with Kim Basinger as Jimmy's mother, Mekhi Phifer, Brittany Murphy and Eugene Byrd.

Release Date: 2002

This movie was also known as:

Fight Music (2001) (USA: working title)

Fight Song (2001) (USA: working title)

Untitled Detroit Project (2001) (USA: working title)

Rating 5 out of 5

Rated for strong language, sexuality, some violence and drug use.

Notes: EMINEM gives a kick ass, Oscar® worthy performance. Not bad for his first major motion picture movie. Best fucking movie I've seen!!!!!!!! My favorite movie. I like the darkness it actually adds to the general feel of EMINEM's character's life. Curtis Hanson did an awesome job directing this flick.

Bottom Line: This movie is a definite BUY or rent. A Must See.
