I saw some of Get Rich or Die Tryin' at my friends house while we were playing some Texas Hold 'em (Poker), and I can't say it was that good of a movie. I personally don't think it was bad, because it was kind of inspirational in a sense of all that 50 has had to go through, but I wouldn't really recommend it unless you are a 50 fan (which I'm definitely not).

TragicallyInept Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 he's basically just playing a glorified version of himself, which is why I don't see it as such a big deal. Same with Eminem in 8 Mile. Same reason why one of my fave actors Robert Downey Jr. never got really recognized for the flick Two Girls & A Guy or Less than Zero because he was just perceived as playing himself. Even Ebert said he shoulda been considered for a best actor nod for Two Girls & A guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turntable Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 Britney Spears in Crossroads, Usher in In The Mix, are just two other examples. Yeah, but Britney was at least hot :rofl: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-o-e Posted April 23, 2006 Report Share Posted April 23, 2006 To those who like 50 cent and g unit it's a good movie, but honestly guys theres no point in saying that here...we've had countless discussions on this subject and it's trying to stick a knife into metal and make it stay there, it's not happening, I have seen the movie and I have the soundtrack, the movie isn't the best i've seen but it's an average movie, the soundtrack has a few good songs on there...but that's it...

TragicallyInept Posted April 24, 2006 Report Share Posted April 24, 2006 I think the big deal is that people mistake "Entertaining movie" with "GREAT MOVIE" There are lots of movies that I think are entertaining (even some Will movies) but don't think they are GREAT movies by any stretch of the imagination. But they're fun movies to watch and I enjoy it every second I watch them. So to ME they're good movies, but I realize that in the grand scheme of things they aren't very good. They're just fun.
