About this product

Product Information

Controversial rapper Eminem (real name Marshall Mathers) makes his big screen debut with 8 MILE, a bracing drama directed by the increasingly audacious Curtis Hanson. Set in 1995 in the bleak, urban battle zone of Detroit, the film follows the struggles of a young man who is desperate to make a better life for himself. Jimmy Smith, Jr., better known as Rabbit, is destined for a life of squalor. Living in a cramped trailer with his deadbeat mom (Kim Basinger), Rabbit works in a factory to make ends meet. His only outlet is hip-hop. Possessing a talent for freestyle rapping, Rabbit still hasn't managed to unleash his true potential. But his best friend, Future (Mekhi Phifer), is determined to make that happen. Future forces Rabbit to enter a freestyle battle that he blew the week before, giving him another chance at redemption. Hanson's stellar portrait of lower-class urban disillusionment, shot with uncompromisingly gritty realism by Rodrigo Prieto, proves that the issue is no longer about race, it's about money. Eminem delivers a bold performance as the troubled youngster who is still trying to find his place in a harsh, cruel world.

  • Inspirational film

    Very intense movie, with lots of cussing and fighting. But the overall message is amazing. And Eminem does such a great acting job as “‘rabbit’Jimmy Smith”. Totally worth watching! Bonus features include a backstory on the film and Eminem mentions how he actually grew up in Detroit.

  • Not the right dvd!

    When I opened the DVD case, I expected 8 mile, but that’s definitely not what I got. The dvd inside was not 8 mile it was a slim shady lp disc!

  • Engaging for fans but narrow timeframe

    Very engaging story of his Struggles with artistic expression but I was a little disappointed it only covered a very narrow time frame during the begining of his discovery and recognition. I was hoping for a broader time range continuing into his early success.
