I watched 8 Mile for the first time tonight. It’s not what I expected. Though I’m not sure what exactly I expected. It was fine.

I remember it being basically well executed. The plot worked. It was basically a sport movie story like Rocky.
It didn't run from race but it also didn't acknowledge Eminem's debts to Black music. I found that kind of odd because Eminem, himself, had been clear and convincing in interviews that he did understand that debt.
I rememberliking the bonus feature that interviewed the Detroit folks who played the crowd in the club.
I am kind of curious what you expected.
@user47 It wasn't what I expected either, just watched it a few months ago myself.
