      8 Mile--How Are We Going To Cross Our Own 8 Miles?

      I have to say that Eminem is a rapper who has had a great influence on me... even having a great influence on my personality. He is the king in the kingdom of black people. Although the time span of this film is small, the narrative is very compact and smooth. In this semi-autobiographical film about Eminem, Eminem played the role of Hahahaha, and his acting skills were always in place. In fact, the film...

      The achievements of Mr. Mu are directly proportional to the pressure and pain he bears in his heart

      The first time I heard about this movie was at the Midi Music Festival in 2007. Someone was selling it at a stall. Later, I saw in a magazine that the movie was very good. But never saw it. Occasionally remembered. A few days ago, I listened to Mr. Mu and Boss Huang's River, and couldn't help himself! Two geniuses! Worship me! Then I listened to some of Mr. Mu's songs and watched the movie. The ending song perfectly gave the movie the best ending. Has been a single cycle for a day,...

      "8 Miles": Times have changed, but you are still the stubborn teenager

      The first time I saw it was when the movie was just released, back to my study abroad career in 2002. I was abroad, and loneliness and uncertainty about the future filled my life. It was also at that time that I received the music of rap. Chinese rap is the Hugou Gang, while English rap only listens to Eminem.

      2000-2002, finally waited for "8 Mile". At that time, I bought a genuine DVD in a shopping mall at a very cheap price, and I still vaguely remember the feeling of ecstasy....

      What is hiphop culture?

      Although I have always liked listening to rap, I didn't have a clear concept of hiphop culture before. Although the view of some people that "hiphop is vulgar black culture" is clearly wrong, I can't think of how to refute it forcefully. America is too far away and my skin is too light. Although there are many domestic rappers, they always feel that there are some fundamental differences. And the movie "8 Miles" provides people like me with a window to understand hiphop culture. It can be...

      I don't know how to feel after watching it. Halfway through, I didn't like B very much, an angry youth who was incompetent. Later, I seem to find some feeling, um, rap is not pretending to be cool, it is an...

      To a certain extent, black rap music is like a minority antiphonal conversation. The sense of rhythm is a natural inspiration and also flows in the blood. I don't like it very much. Well, I don't really like Rap, which is easy to cause noise. I still remember that one time I dragged hundreds of gigabytes of iTunes music from the Internet and then listened to a few pieces of Eminem. He emptied his dozen albums but focused When you listen to it, you can hear it for real. Especially the ending...

    Shooting Highlights

    The name of the movie refers to a real road in Michigan. It is the boundary between the black and white areas of Detroit and represents an insurmountable barrier. Eminem grew up around here.
    The piece of paper Jimmy wrote on the bus actually belonged to Eminem, and on it he wrote "Lost Yourself". The price of this piece of paper on eBay’s online auction was ten thousand dollars.
    On the night of the film’s premiere, one of the extras, Ali...

    Continuity: In the scene of a fight on the trailer, a railing on the kitchen counter was damaged. A few minutes later, it was repaired again.
    The staff can see: When little Jimmy Smith is talking outside the factory, the staff's reflection (holding the microphone) can be seen in the window behind him.
    The facts are wrong: They mentioned that Detroit never destroys abandoned buildings and how to turn them into casinos. The earliest time...

    The most valuable thing about "8 Miles" is that the director did not evade the cruel reality of the rap world. He left the power of judgment to the audience and let the audience make their own value judgments. (Sohu Review   )
    No matter where we live, no matter who we are, each of us is surrounded by boundaries. Some of these boundaries are real, and some may be just imagination. Some people are content to live within these boundaries,...
