GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN sucks ass

GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN sucks ass more than any rap movie ever made. In the Internet Movie Database poll it has already been voted as the 24th worst movie OF ALL TIME. To put this into perspective, even Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo isn't in the Bottom 25, and that flick is a stain on the face of cinema. GET RICH is a rehash of every dumbass rap cliche compiled into 2 hours of hagiography. Worse still, 50 CENT cannot act. Heck, Fiddy can hardly rap. Can we really believe he is ROCK HARD when he comes up with craziness like "I melt in your mouth girl, not in your hand"? I just can't wait till the Chris Rock HBO special when he punishes Fiddy for this piece of embarassment. The only good thing about this movie is that it also features Terrence Howard - a truly awesome actor who stars in a far better, and indeed award-winning, movie about rap music - Hustle and Flow. As for GET RICH, to quote that poet, philosopher and man of the people, Flavor Flav, "Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't believe the hype".

I refuse to use this blog to publicise release dates for this piece of rancid celluloid.

  1. According to the IMDB bottom 100, this film is worse than each of the last 3 Police Academy movies - even Mission to Moscow - which sucked so much it was declared a hazard in 48 out of 50 states of the Union.

  2. It's also, according to IMDB, even worse than that J-Lo/Ben Affleck vom-fest GIGLI. It's really sad that GET RICH is gonna make it harder to finance flicks starring rappers. After all, Ludakris is great in CRASH and HUSTLE AND FLOW and Mos Def is superb in THE WOODSMAN....

  3. My favourite line from the current reviews: "His most expressive feature is his baseball cap, the angle of which varies to distinguish between pissed off and really pissed off."
