I was very skeptical to watch this flick… maybe because I never cared much for Eminem and his music. My opinion, however, has changed after viewing “8 Mileâ€. This movie really pulled me in and got my undivided attention. This film... Full review

her accent became tiresome very quickly and the only downfall to the entire cast.....This is a very good film and some props must be given to the talent behind the film.....if the film would be good or bad..... ... Full Review

Mile' remains rousing, honest (if unmistakably mass appeal) entertainment.....Coming off a two-picture high of 'L.A. Confidential' and 'Wonder Boys', Hanson was a peculiar choice to helm....there's some great depth to the picture.....Not exactly demo worthy but certainly true to the film.....There's honesty and verve to his performance that's probably not a performance at all, the camera just happens to be there..... ...

Mile is not without its flaws, however.....surprisingly good, and his support from Mekhi Phifer as Rabbit's friend Future, in particular, made the film's palpability even more effective.....Eminem actually pulled it off and 8 Mile is a far better film than I (and probably a lot of other people) expected it to be.....For his fans and Hip-Hop fans in general, this is a good film to watch.... ...

An engrossing insight into the world of rap and hip hop, 8 Mile takes us deep into the very heart of life of the black community, where the music tells secrets and the stories of those who live there.
Kim Basinger judges every scene beautifully and portrays her tragic character with great feeling, while Brittany Murphy is well cast as the girl who is as tough as her neighbourhood.
