Watch Get Rich or Die Tryin' For Free

Too much of everything

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

I do not get why the reviews are so bad because this is a great movie about 50 cents life and is very interesting

This movie may be the greatest film ever or the worst, I'll never know because I'll never watch it. The title makes me sick. The fact that some people actually believe in this mantra is sickening. It's what drives people to become famous at any cost. Like shooting up a school or driving your car through a crowd. Change the horrible title and I'll watch it.

1 - The soundtrack is OK...not great just good, I used to be a big fan of 50 cent back in the days now I'm just not, still I don't think he's bad so I must say that the movie's soundtrack is OK. 2 - Terrence Howard: He's acually an actor, he knows how to give great performances wich made the movie he made after this "hustle & Flow" such a great and much better movie than this one, maybe Get Rich or Die Trying would've been a much better movie if he was the main character and not 50 cent. 3 - Adewale agbaje: knows how to play a psycho, a gangster or whatever, he is an actor, this wasn't his best role or movie but still I knows his spot, to me he and Terrence Howard were the only real gangsters in this so called "Gangster" movie.

This piece of steaming dreck is not only bad film making, it is morally corrupt. 50 Cent is a wooden actor, but then it's supposed to be about his life and no doubt he's just a wooden, psychopathic narcissist. Like the musical form he celebrates, his emotional range is as narrow as Freddy Kruger's fingernails. He's basically a thick thug with a sense of rhythm. The film, like gangsta rap, celebrates thruggery and violence, greed and cruelty. The characters refer to themselves by the n-word so often you wonder if they really feel that way about themselves. I know, the use is supposed to be ironic, like bloke, or dude, but you know that can't really be the case. If white people are not allowed to use the word you know it still means what it always did. Women are called 'bitches.' What does that tell you? The flick seems to be saying: just act like a damn fool gangster, sell crack to your friends, shoot anybody you don't like, go to jail and you'll come out of it a star. There's a telling moment early in the film at a time when crack is new on the scene, and one character, realizing it's enormous potential for profitability says, "This will get us out of the ghetto..." The exact opposite of the truth, crack locked thousands of helpless black youth in the ghetto permanently. Even the very few that ever made any money selling it were still locked in the ghetto and the hip-hop that celebrates that way of life locks thousands more in the ghetto. No wonder there's a plague of black-on-black murder in some of our major cities. Maybe a first step toward fixing this situation might be to denounce this kind of evil propaganda.
