This movie is based on the true life story of marshall m mathers also known as eminem, staring the actual character. 8 mile takes place in Detroit Michigan in the 90s, where Eminems hometown is located. its about a very poor kid named B-rabbit, is struggling with his job and to make ends meet, He competes in a rap battle called the shelter, and chokes the first time he gets on stage and then gets booed off stage. He is stuggling to make ends meet for his little sister and himself, getting fired from countless jobs, he then ends up finding a job at a car factory and moves in with his mom who is an alcoholic.
I enjoyed watching the film incredibly, its based on a true story of making it from nothing to somthing, In my opinion i think it was amazing that someone being a minority and having to go up against all odds and then suddenly making the outcome in his favor really tells if you want somthing badly enough and are willing to fight for it hard enough you will get what you need. This very rapper/artist has changed the way hiphop and even the music industry has been, this movie tells a story of a man who wants nothing more then respect, and will take every chance he has to get it.
