What? You got shot? Nine times? Sounds like a ludicrous premise for a film, but Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson is all about ludicrous. Fitty’s 117-minute masturbation session is G-Unit’s version of mentor Eminem’s “8-Mile,” but without the gritty and natural presence of Marshall Mathers, Kim Basinger and Brittany Murphy. “Get Rich or Die Tryin’” is a tour of forced acting headlined by a rapper with a bloated head. Fitty, getting plugged doesn’t make you hardcore; you’ll need to die first (see Tupac and Notorious B.I.G.). So please, die already.
