    I don't actually know how I was brought to see this. It's obviously narcissism to the highest degree imaginable, and yet it is still interesting. 50 Cent may not be Oscar quality (in fact, he's got about as much acting personality as a block of wood), but he tries to make us like...( read more) him, at least. (doesn't really manage with me).

    Screw the fact that you know the end before you see the movie (50's still alive, isn't he?). His character may be called Marcus, but the story is about 50, face it. If you like rap (which I do not, at all), you should like it a lot. If you don't , then you may find it a bit dull.

    The rest of the cast is average, I guess. Terrence Howard shines as Bama, and Joy Bryant is sweet, but not filled with persona.

    Conclusion: Average acting, average script, average camera angles ... basically, an average movie. But you'll laugh at the principle of its production.

    What the fuck is this shit, you think they would have the decentcy to shoot him in the fucking head. Rappers dont need a motion picture made of there supposely stupid lifes. Dumb, numb and flat-out teriable. Curtis Jackson is absolutely fucking pathetic

    Let's glorify the gangster, drug dealing murderer, and make him even more rich. This country is pathetic, just like this movie. It's no wonder everyone wants to blow our shit up

    Might have been another Boyz in the Hood if it had decent writing, acting, direction, etc. 50 Cent is such a bad actor that it made me wish they had cast a corpse for the lead role. What a God-awful mess.
