I saw this movie today and I really liked it. Terrecen Howard did an amazing job in this movie. The music is awesome too.

I am so looking forward to seeing this movie - I've loved Terrence Howard in everything that he's done (even the cheesy sitcoms)....

I love Mariah Carey but glitter,

that was bad!!!!!!!

all the actors in this movie are not the greatest actors.that one girl was in crossroads(britney spears movie,worst movie ever)andthe pregnant girl was in babyboy with tyrese(actully decent movie,funny).

I really wasn't looking forward to seeing Hustle and Flow because it looked kinda cheesy to me, but I went to the premiere cuz I have some friends involved in the movie and they invited me...surprisingly I really enjoyed it! It was weird for me to see T. Howard rapping because I know what a great musician he is, and I just couldn't picture him rapping at all. He did an ok job with it, but I prefer him as a musician. This one is soooooo much better than Glitter and I even like it way better than 8Mile

 
Oh, and as for Rize...I love David LaChappelle as a photographer and a music video director...I'm just not so sure about his movie directing skills right now...I hated that movie.

 
loved hustle and flow. wasn't sure what to expect and found myself totally caught up in the charaters. great movie!
