  Get Rich or Die Tryin' | Movie Review | Entertainment Weekly
Now there's this, Get Rich or Die Tryin', a rags-to-riches bio-inspired pic with a title taken from Jackson's debut album and high hopes extrapolated from the success of Eminem's own impressive movie debut, 8 Mile.
There's nothing at all wrong with wanting to get rich as opposed to dying, but not every business plan requires a feature film to achieve that American gangsta goal.
Movie Commentary ''Get Rich or Die Tryin''' is one of the 10 movies we can't wait to see (Nov 11, 2005)

 Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2005 film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Get Rich or Die Tryin' is a motion picture starring Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson as Marcus, a drug dealer aspiring to be a rapper.
This is the culmination of generational and cultural tension as Marcus's grandfather is an older man who speaks with a West Indian accent.
On October 27, 2005, movie posters for the film featuring 50 Cent with a handgun in one hand and a mic in the other were removed from billboards in Los Angeles school areas after complaints that they promote gun violence and gang activity.

Folks who dislike 50 Cent won’t change their minds if they watch Get Rich or Die Tryin’, and 50’s fans probably won’t get much from it either.

 50 Cent : Get Rich or Die Tryin' (Clean) - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
In fact, the expectations were so massive that they overshadowed the music itself -- 50 becoming more of a phenomenon than simply a rapper -- so massive that you had to be skeptical, particularly given the marketing-savvy nature of the rap world.
Even so, Get Rich is indeed an impressive debut, not quite on the level of such landmark debuts as the aforementioned ones by Snoop or Nas -- or those by Biggie, Wu-Tang, or DMX either -- but impressive nonetheless, definitely ushering in 50 as one of the truly eminent rappers of his era.
And though he very well could be the rightful successor to the Biggie-Jigga-Nas triptych, Get Rich isn't quite the masterpiece 50 seems capable of, impressive or not.

 Get Rich or Die Tryin' Movie Review - Get Rich or Die Tryin' Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
"Get Rich or Die Tryin'" is the acting debut of rapper 50 Cent.
One of those somebodies is the Irishman Jim Sheridan, who also directed "Get Rich." Sheridan is best known for making "My Left Foot" and the blistering IRA film "In the Name of the Father." 50's fans won't be disappointed with the filmmaking muscle Sheridan lends to this malarkey.
And so "Get Rich" details all that personal history to build back up to the incident that has made 50 Cent an urban legend: Marcus is shot nine times.

 "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" - Salon
Their prison scenes are a potent distillation of the tensions that so often arise between fathers and sons: Postlethwaite and Day-Lewis, forced to eat in their cell because of the other inmates' hostility, argue over little things that stand in for bigger things.
But if nothing else, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" is a family story: We first meet Jackson's character, Marcus, as he and his friends (among them Bama, played with whispery bravado by Terrence Howard) hold up a check-cashing outfit.
As he waits to die, Marcus reflects on his life: We see him as a kid (played by Marc John Jefferies) with his mom (Serena Reeder), the two of them singing along, boisterously, to Chaka Khan on the car radio.

Get Rich is not filled with midtempo, radio-friendly numbers like "Wanksta," his thinly veiled Ja Rule dis first heard on the 8 Mile soundtrack.
Sure, Get Rich could never have lived up to the hype, it’s nowhere near Biggie's Ready to Die or Nas's Illmatic, but there's no fast-forward material here, a near miracle in these times.
What made GRODT sound so epic is the fact that 50's syrupy vocals, and the VERY high-budget production values presented it as a revolutionary project, despite the fact that it was no more than a hot debut by a talented, albeit not magnificient emcee.

All the same, "Get Rich" can be seen as something of a companion piece to Sheridan's last film, "In America," in its view of striving against the tide toward vindication and success through self-reliance in New York City.
In solitary, Marcus realizes he must "express myself or die," and with Bama proposing to be his manager, Marcus begins scratching lyrics on his cell wall.
In "Get Rich" Marcus wants to be a rapper from an early age, but what drives him musically (as opposed to commercially) is vague, and insufficient evidence from his work is offered to convince the uncommitted observer of his musical talent.

 Get Rich or Die Tryin - 50 Cent: Behind the Bleeps   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
With the media hype surrounding rap stars – their music and their movies – we took a look at lyrics from five 50 Cent songs and quantified the language that gets bleeped out of the “clean” versions of songs heard on the radio.
While profanity is bleeped out of most of the versions played on commercial radio, lyrics rich with threats of violence and general sexual innuendo, are not sanitized for radio play.
There are approximately 800 hip-hop-formatted radio stations out of the approximate 11,000 commercial stations originating in the U.S. It's safe to say that between those hip-hop stations and the hundreds of cross-over stations that put 50 Cent into heavy rotation, it was inevitable that his music would top industry charts.

However, when a heist goes wrong and Marcus is shot several times, he has a change of heart and decides to leave his old life behind.
Marcus' new songs are inspired by the gritty realities of his old life on the street, but just as it looks like he might be able to land a record deal, he discovers that some of his old business associates aren't too happy about Marcus telling folks about their actions.
