so my girl took me to 'Get Rich or Die Tryin' tonight...

IP:

... and I'll be honest, was a HELLUVALOT better than I expected. Maybe cause I had low expectations - I dunno. 50's acting was actually good (maybe cause all he had to play was himself???) although in like the first scene he said one line that was REAL emotionless, and I was like "Here we go..." but from there on - it was actually good. Decent plot, a few funny things here and there, and kept me entertained as opposed to fallin asleep. I'd give it a 7.5 outta 10, and I'd prolly even go see it again. Plus, boo was MAD horny for a rapper when we got out of there . LOL.

Oh yea - the downsides were 1 WACK gay prison shower scene with naked dudes brawling... coulda done without that... And even though it was based "losely" on 50's life, there was no mention of Banks (or whatever they would have made his character name) even though he came up wit 50. I don't want to ruin any plot, but there were some other things I thought didn't really fit, but it didn't take away from plot too much.

Anyways - just thought I'd post my 2 cents on seeing it. word.

I didn't mean "homo" gay... I meant "wack" gay... jeez man. It was jus five dudes showering, then they end up brawling. Alot of male full nudity I could do without. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. As did the five 14 yr old girls sitting in front of us.

Good enough reason for me, lol. seriously though, I've heard it's actually a good flick from a few sources. I know I'll go see it. This just gives me some insight as to WTF I'm facing. Good looks.

5 guys fighting butt-ass naked does cum off as gay....... that's just my opinion...... if i had beef w/ somebody in prison, it would get handled elsewhere......

You all may say that the shower scene was gay, but I have a friend who used to be a prison guard and he said that the inmates used to do a thing to screen the guards by all walking to the middle of the shower....then back to their own shower heads. Usually the guy on the very far end just got shanked or beaten pretty badly......and it's funny how no one manages to know who the culprit was.....lol.
