Is the movie 8 Mile based on Eminem's life?

Best Answers

This movie is based on Eminem’s character as an influence. It is showing us what a typical white rapper had to go through in the scenes of hip hop. That being said, I wouldn’t say this movie is based on but rather influenced by Eminem’s life. 8 Mile is based on the early battle hip hop days of Detroit to be more clear. read more

Best Answer: This is not about Eminem's life. Eminem said it himself in an interview. Even though there are certain things in the movie that relate to Eminem's life (ex. 8 Mile Road,) this is certainly NOT an autobiography. read more

Eminem's 8 Mile High. Eminem portrayed a white guy who wants to rap.He grew up in Detroit and struggled for long time to be successful. I think Eminem probably felt similar to the character of Jimmy. But real life struggle is far more than the movie showed. So for me as a fan, I don't look at it as a semi autobiographical. read more
