    Marcus (50 Cent) has always known he was going to be a rapper. But when his mother is murdered, young Marcus turns to dealing drugs for New York crime boss Majestic to pay the bills. As dealing turns to gang banging, however, Marcus finds his life spinning out of control, eventually landing in prison. While there, he decides to quit hustling and dedicate himself to his music…but by turning his back on Majestic, he may have signed his own death warrant. Terrence Howard co-stars in this hard-hitting story based on 50 Cent’s transformation from gangster to rapper, an unforgettable ride from tragic beginning to triumphant end.

    Description of Get Rich Or Die Tryin' (Full Screen Edition):
    In Get Rich or Die Tryin', rapper Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson presents himself as a rap superhero, encased in muscular flesh like armor, his face impassive as a mask, reaching out to destroy his enemies with his unique talent. The plot, though based on Jackson's life, is standard--a gangster breaks from his youthful life of crime to triumph as a rapper--but there's vitality in the details: Jackson's girlfriend helps him pull free the wires holding his jaw shut when he's recovered from being shot in the face; a startling, brutal fight by naked men in a prison shower. Jackson even has his comic-book moment of transformation when a razor blade is thrown into his cell, encouraging him to kill himself; instead, he uses it to carve his rhymes into the walls. Unfortunately, as an actor Jackson only has two sides, gangster hard or oddly childlike and vulnerable. This second aspect falls away from the movie as Jackson assumes power, leaving only the cold, impassive face of a tough guy. That's the fate of superheroes too--they become the mask they present to the world, which is both their dream and their fate. Terrence Howard (Crash, Hustle & Flow) livens things up as a volatile prison friend. Also featuring Bill Duke (Predator) as a raspy ganglord and Joy Bryant (Honey) as Jackson's girlfriend. Capably directed by Jim Sheridan (My Left Foot, In America). --Bret Fetzer

    Get Rich Or Die Tryin' (Full Screen Edition) Reviews:
    Good Quality 4 Star Review
    2009-06-16 - When I purchased this DVD it was used and I was a little skeptical but after having recieved it and watched the movie I am very pleased at the picture quality and how it was packaged when I recieved it.

    Get Rich with 50 Cent 4 Star Review
    2009-04-30 - I did not order this so I cannot review the shipping or packaging. However, I did check this movie out and it is quite good. It has a host of actors, rappers and entertainers which makes this a very well rounded film. I was not sure what to expect from 50 Cent in his acting debut but he did not disappoint. He also chose one of the sexiest leading ladies (Joy Bryant). If you like 50 Cent's music and you are into Gangster shoot em' up movies then you'll enjoy this one. I hope this helps. YMMV...Neosoul06

    Good for what it is 4 Star Review
    2009-04-24 - *** This review may contain spoilers ***

    Amazon reviewers are real sheep. Everybody is bashing 50 Cent but very little of these rants posing as reviews actually speak about the actual movie. Let's get one thing straight. If you hate 50 so much that you cant even write a partial review on this movie don't review it. Im not fond of 50 as a rapper and as a person but that is a lousy reason to give this movie bad reviews.

    Get Rich Or Die Trying is loosely based on the life of Curtis Jackson and based on that reason its pretty good. 50 plays himself and there are good performances from Terrance Howard as well as Joy Bryant who plays Charlene, Marcus's girlfriend in the movie. Bill Duke is pretty good as Levar the boss of the organization Marcus links up with. Adewale Akinnouye Agbaje is excellent as the ruthless Majestic. The movie covers Marcus childhood as well is how he became to be a rapper. One might question the authenticity of the story being told in this movie(this being the movie's real flaw) but as far as entertainment goes I enjoyed myself.

    Its a shame when people allow the hapless trendies that run amok on Amazon, IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes dictate to you what qualifies as quality movies. These weirdos think that defending awful movies that were rightfully panned like Freddy Got Fingered, Nothing But Trouble, Batman and Robin, The Musketeer and The Black Dahlia makes them hip and cool and not pathetic posers in dire need of a life. And as far as acting goes the last time I checked Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Leonardo Dicaprio, Brad "Musty Arm" Pitt(overrated beyond belief), Casper Van Diem, Chuck Norris were not real actors! To all of you reasonable people out there do not allow the circus freaks on Amazon, IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes to tell you what counts for good cinema because you will be disappointed every time. There are a lot of great movies that never made the Top 250 or gotten Fresh Tomatoes. Just goes to show you the bandwagon mentality of these pseudo intellectual rodents. And as far as the overly sensitive sheep go, I wouldn't waste time trying to reason with your schizophrenic a**es. Go fawn over the ever-so-overrated Quentin Tarantino like the spineless groupies you are.

    BRING ON THE UNHELPFUL VOTES!!!!
