Hustle & Flow

A Movie Reel

Hustle & Flow: 8 out of 10.

This was a raw tour de force backboned by an amazing performance by Terrence Howard.  It's hard to root for the guy, and that makes it all the more compelling, because you end up rooting for him like he's the Rocky of hip-hop even though he's a drug dealing pimp with a bad temper.  Watching "Hustle & Flow" made me realize just how mediocre a film "8 Mile" was.

It's hard out here for a pimp.
