I didn't know who my father was since I was a child, and my mother sold drugs and was bullied by my elder brother. Then my mother went to the streets and sold drugs to make a living, bought guns by herself, got into gangs, robbed, killed, and went to jail. Then she got 9 bullets and died for her life, and finally insisted on rap until she became a superstar. This life is too bloody, too legendary, I personally think it is a perfect template for the hiphop route.
Compared to Eminem's white rap, 50 Cent's black rap seems more orthodox and more powerful. In any case, Hiphop is black and belongs to blacks. Three-quarters of the two-hour movie has nothing to do with rap or music, everything is only about survival. The best comment is that when Marcus sat down in his new house and started preparing for recording, he was uninspired. He boiled down that he was hungry, so he gave up his so-called dream after three hours. Because, compared to survival, all dreams and the like are all clouds and P. So you can say that this film is very dark, inspirational, tragic, and autobiographical, but don’t say that this film is very musical. He has nothing to do with music and doesn’t want to have much to do with it. All he tells you is how a person is in the dark. The story of winning the light and fighting for the air. He tells you who wants to survive is harder than someone else's life.
Therefore, the good thing is that the film is very hard, especially when compared to Eight Mile. It is very manly, very realistic and dirty. There are four-character classics of swear words, all kinds of unprovoked fights, internal fights in gangs, and naked students in prison. Dry, the blood on the operating table, constitutes the backbone of the film. These obscure things present a naked American society and a real person who is forced to move forward by society. The pretentious touting of the so-called emptiness and ethereal talent is not as good as the actual combat tension of real swords and guns.
But here comes the disadvantages. After all, this is an autobiographical movie. The result is that the protagonist became famous and became a superstar, but the focus of the length is not here, so when the film is going on, you can see the flaws. Where did his talent come from? Was it when he was a child, but the film didn't explain much about his childhood practice of rap, and it was even harder to talk about rap when he was on the road to gangs. So why did he make a sensation in prison to the point where even the white policemen were talking about it? Simply put, it is red too fast. The boss was so easy to get killed in the end, why didn't anyone come out to stop Marcus's companions when they shot? Why did his wife support him to ignore his identity as a gang member after waiting for him for 10 years and reuniting?
Apart from the flaws in the plot of the film, there are others worth seeing. For example, the performance of 50 Cent, in fact, every singer is worthy of attention when they start acting. The appearance of 50 Cent is considered a success, if you use one word to describe it, it is honest and honest. The honest smile and the honest talk to himself, especially when he chose to give up his dream, scratching his head and saying how could he have been out of inspiration, it was really interesting.
Then there is the city. Eminem is Detroit, and 50 Cent was born in Queens, New York. I always think that a black movie or a hiphop movie is the totem of the bottom American society and American cities. Only in this kind of film can we see more real and more realistic American social life, such as the struggle of black people in slums, shootings, and the random buying and selling of guns and drugs. No matter whether it is exaggerated or whatever, it is worthy of respect to dare to shoot these things. At the same time, Chinese directors are still pursuing hundreds of millions of ostentation and box office. Of course, some directors and some movies are born for the box office. There is nothing wrong with me. If you want to see such a movie with naked and dark side, that gorgeous and beautiful gangster movie in Hong Kong is not counted.
Pulling away, come back and talk about the movie. Although the film doesn't say much about music, the sense of existence of music cannot be ignored, especially at the beginning of the film where the bridge is about to be robbed in the car. The jitter of the music combined with the picture is very tense and feels great. The small shortcoming is that I personally feel that the theme song is not as good as the eight-mile lose yourself. Pure personal opinion.
If you want to learn English, don’t watch it. Don’t watch it if you like Li Ang’s literary and artistic movies. If you want to see the connotation of the technique in the movie, don’t watch it as soon as possible. This is more or less a 50 Cent half boasting film, suitable for all adult mental health. I will not imitate and watch by a slender and innocent person who likes Hiphop or has a personal admiration for 50 Cent.
