Get Rich Or Die Tryin'

In his film debut, hip-hop superstar Curtis 50 Cent Jackson explodes across the screen in this hard-hitting urban drama from acclaimed director Jim Sheridan (In America). Following a near-fatal gun battle, Marcus ( 50 Cent ) recalls his journey from orphaned street kid from the Bronx to making his mark in the drug trade to teaming up with a fellow ex-con (Terrence Howard) for his shot at becoming a successful rap artist.This gripping tale, based on 50 Cent's real life story, is a film with a rich and convincing texture, a drama with power and anger. - Roger Ebert.
