Fique Rico ou Morra Tentando

most of the people who gave this a bad review are probably the same people that gave eminem's film 8 mile a good review. both films depict the life's of the two rappers and in my opinion this film is better because 50 Cent has been through MUCH more in his life than Eminem has. the only difference is that 50 cent is black. People hatred for 50 cent and or maybe gangster rap probably have given them a tainted view on this film. it is not glorifying drug dealing etc like other films such as American gangster with denzil washington or film series such as breaking bad does, it is just merely telling a story of someones life. The fact that most of it is a true story should be enough to help people sit back and learn about the upbringing of one of the biggest stars this century. not a great film but no where near terrible.

So much effort went into the production of this motion picture. The actors did a super good job. This movie is the same caliber as Donnie Brasco, just without Al Pacino and Johnny Depp. 50 Cent the OG must be respected. Good movie.

The film is supposedly a biographical account of 50 cents own life. I am sure a lot of artistic liberties has been taken and then some more.

It is well directed, well acted, has lots of violence, swearing, rap music and there is some tenderness as well.

It's another story of someone who ends up on the wrong side of the tracks, gets in with some hoodlums, ends in jail and finds redemption through music.

If you do not like rap music it is not for you. 50 Cents does OK in the lead role but he surrounds himself with a good supporting cast and a sure- footed director.

I have read through all of these comments, and am astounded at the amount of negativity towards it. I cannot believe that any film within the IMDb database can be voted as 1 out of 10, thats just stupid. Alrite, i agree its not an Oscar winning film, but I enjoyed it! OK, 50 cent's acting is brilliant, but he pulls it off! The film boasts a reasonable story based on his life, and to be honest it wasn't amazing, but it was generally enjoyable! Lost's Mr Eko played his character well, as did Terrence Howard! And Bill Duke, as the Ghetto Godfather is astoundingly brilliant! 8 Mile was a good film, and this is as good! So please, ignore the negative views and watch this film!!!!

This movie is unbelievably underrated. Yes, the acting isn't great at all times but it works. It has a great plot, a great script and most importantly GREAT MUSIC
