I really liked this movie.It took me back into my days in the ghetto and made me realize that I am a strong passionate person from my experiences.I am on my way up the ladder of success now and BIG UP to 50 for making up there..........!
I was a hard core movie,I was quite stocked at how hard core it was.
There was a lot of hype around this film and it really didn`t live up to it at all. 50`s peformance was good at some points but forced at most. They needed to take more time with this film, a better cast would have added more authenticity to the overall feel of the film. Why bring such a big American production to Canada and use Canadian actors. I mean not that their bad it`s just that you can tell a Canadian from an American, and it takes away from the characters in the film. Jim Sheridan is an acclaimed director and they didn`t utilize his full potential at all. The screenplay was a little weak as well with some of the corniest lines i`ve h
What can I say, when you put such a "huge icon" in a movie and it still has trouble making enough money to cover it`s production budget. Seriously, they wonder why less people are going to movies. It`s not the prices, it`s cause the movies are no good, and this is no exception.
For those of you who said that this movie was horrible, another gangster movie and a waste of time I don’t think you understood it for what it was worth. It was about 50’s struggle in the hood and about his life…do you think your life a waste of time? I thought it was quite good for what it was, it portrayed his struggles and how he climbed the ladder to success. It wasn’t easy but he got there and I think he deserves credit. The acting was rather good, but then again he was playing himself. The movie was violent but so was his life. Good movie overall.
fidy cent is outta control like he says in his song and i think that clickity clank clickity clank money went into his piggy from this movie. i would rate this movie 9.998889/ 10.
yup yup go watch
