Eminem: Count Me In (2023) User Reviews

It's... Fine.

[anissa-taylor · 5/10 · 6 March 2024]

This is a reasonable documentary, nothing revolutionary. It doesn't contain anything fans don't know. The editing isn't great, frequently they leave the narrators mistakes and/ or restarts in which is annoying and should have been picked up.

All in all there's a lot of "allegedly", a psychologist giving his repetitive thoughts on why Eminem did what he did and how he felt, and basically one interview Eminem did decades ago interspersed with stock images and footage when the (random) interviewed "specialists" aren't talking about eminems music and life.

It's basically a fan film, and is fine to kill some time if you're bored, but isn't ground breaking.

Interesting subject matter poorly executed

Really cheaply made, reuse of images over and over, weird blurry images and stock pictures of old America (no idea why). Almost every video clip is out of sync with the audio, any music video is out.

Narration is fine, but again poorly edited, I'm not sure anyone watched this back after editing it. I've not seen quality this bad for a long time, not something I'd expect nowadays.

Talking heads are okay, but not sure how qualified a middle aged Liverpudlian "psychologist" is to talk about a white kid growing up in urban Detroit.

This has 4 stars on Amazon Prime, no idea how. You'd be better off just finding a video about Eminem on YouTube, I'm sure it'll have better content and quality.
