8 Mile
If the streets had a voice, this would be the story they'd tell.

Controversial rapper Eminem (real name Marshall Mathers) makes his big screen debut with 8 MILE, a bracing drama directed by the increasingly audacious Curtis Hanson. Set in 1995 in the bleak, urban battle zone of Detroit, the film follows the struggles of a young man who is desperate to make a better life for himself. Jimmy Smith, Jr., better known as Rabbit, is destined for a life of squalor. Living in a cramped trailer with his deadbeat mom (Kim Basinger), Rabbit works in a factory to make ends meet. His only outlet is hip hop. Possessing a talent for freestyle rapping, Rabbit still hasn't managed to unleash his true potential. But his best friend, Future (Mekhi Phifer), is determined to make that happen. Future forces Rabbit to enter a freestyle battle that he blew the week before, giving him another chance at redemption.

Hanson's stellar portrait of lower class urban disillusionment, shot with uncompromisingly gritty realism by Rodrigo Prieto, proves that the issue is no longer about race, it's about money. Eminem delivers a bold performance as the troubled youngster who is still trying to find his place in a harsh, cruel world.

Four Brothers
They came home to bury mum... and their her killer.

After their adoptive mother is gunned down during a grocery store hold up, the estranged Mercer brothers hot headed Bobby, hard edged Angel, family man and businessman Jeremiah, and hard rocking Jack reunite to seek revenge and take matters into their own hands. Defying police orders, the four begin turning their old Detroit neighbourhood upside down searching for the mastermind behind the brutal killing. Along the way, they discover that they are bound by ties thicker than blood in this emotionally powerful, action packed drama.
