Get Rich or Die Tryin' holds a 16% critics' approval rating at Rotten Tomatoes based upon 117 reviews. The site's critical consensus reads, "While it may be based upon 50 Cent's own life experiences, Get Rich or Die Tryin' is too similar to many other rags-to-riches stories to resonate."[7] Radio Times criticized the film, saying that "as a vehicle for hip-hop superstar Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson, this [film] runs out of gas a fair few kilometres short", giving it a "could be worse" rating of 2/5 stars.[2] CinePassion stated that "[Jim] Sheridan's surface vividness is applied around a vacuum."[8]
Jonathan Ross gave a positive review, calling Get Rich or Die Tryin' "gripping" and suggesting that it had "excellent performances".[11] Roger Ebert also praised the film, giving the film a 3 out of 4 rating and saying that it was "a film with a rich and convincing texture, a drama with power and anger".[12]
Still, 50 just isn't quite there yet. Had he offered more tracks that showcased his talents quite as tangibly as "How to Rob (An Industry Nigga)" alongside the massive radio hits bumping from every inner-city Escalade, Get Rich or Die Tryin' very well might have been the landmark achievement it's being touted as. But as his character presently lacks the dynamism and depth required for that elusive gangsta magnetism that's a prerequisite for notoriety, 50 goes down as simply a decent MC with a wrenching back story, whose potential landed him a gig with the world's dopest beatmakers and the hype machine that shot the Great White Way into the pop culture stratosphere.
But when it came time to hit the studio with Jay, it was the melody that the hip-hop legend required of his recent signee to JMJ Productions. In his eyes, at least for 50, choruses were to be multidimensional and have some refrain to them.
All of their stories, in his eyes, were reminiscent of his: a street hustler from Queens who employed rap to help him reach the boundless potential that has now landed him as an extraordinary entrepreneur and TV executive. Immersed in the alcohol business (with his Le Chemin du Roi champagne and Sire Spirits brands) and shows like BMF and the Power universe, 50 has helped create and produce some of the most watched on television.
It was January 2003. In the world of music, Michael Jackson had only recently dangled his nine-month-old son over the balcony of a Berlin hotel room, Fergie had just joined The Black Eyed Peas, and Ja Rule and Nelly were the kingpins of the rap scene.
"It was a very organic thing," said Waldman. "I think the imagery shows him as the warrior that he was, like he was really prepared to get rich or die trying, and you shouldn't mess with him because he won't stop trying."
"I think that's why the album took the world by storm because the energy of it all was just perfect," Waldman added. "He kind of came out with this bible that said, 'I'm on the block now. I'm not in hiding anymore, I'm not selling mixtapes out of my trunk anymore. This is 50, and I'm going to get rich or die trying.'

50 Cent: My description of fun right now would be to sit on someone's couch and watch TV. Regular cable TV. When I'm in a hotel, on-demand is the same. You watch the same movies. I've seen everything in the hotels because I travel so often that it's not an option. When you're overseas, I watch the TV in another language, trying to figure out what they're saying.
The ultimate hustle is to move freely between the street and corporate worlds, to find your flow and never stay locked in the same position. This is a manifesto for how to operate in the twenty-first century, where everything has been turned on its head....
In a recent interview with BET's Diggin In the Crates, Fat Joe admitted that he believes 50 Cent's debut album, Get Rich Or Die Tryin' is one of the greatest Hip-Hop albums of all time. Joe admitted that due to their past beef, at first he wasn't receptive to really listening to the landmark album when it first dropped in 2003.

The movie "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" hits theaters today. The film marks the big screen debut of Curtis Jackson, better known as 50 Cent. It's loosely based on the rapper's own life as a drug dealer, who turns his back on crime in favor of a music career. Even before the film hits theaters, the movie is knee-deep in controversy. Some Los Angeles residents demanded billboards that featured the rapper holding a gun in one hand and a microphone in the other be taken down. The protest caused Paramount Pictures, the studio behind the film, to remove them in some neighborhoods. Commentator Earl Ofari Hutchinson was one of the demonstrators. He says the film's thug-to-riches story sends a deadly message.
Let's be clear, "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" is not going to send young blacks sprinting from the theaters to commit murder and mayhem in their neighborhoods. It's a movie and there's no smoking gun connect between the violence on the big screen and bodies in the street. Still, "Get Rich" and the hoard of other "Boyz n the Hood" movies that Hollywood churned out over the past decade again raise troubling questions. Why do a handful of influential rap entrepreneurs--and that certainly includes Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson--who are rich and famous beyond their wildest fantasies, brand themselves with a criminal thuggish image and why, despite white fears that young blacks are the ultimate menaces to society, in almost all cases, the victims of the thug-acting rappers are other young blacks?
But pent-up anger is only one cause of the dangerous cycle of black-on-black violence. The tough talk, swagger and mannerisms of black males are defense mechanisms they use to boost their self-esteem. They measure their status or boost their self-worth by demonstrating their proficiency in physical fights, assaults and, yes, murder. "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" may be one man's tale of redemption, but it also exalts the criminal violence that has cost the lives of many black men like 50 Cent. That's a hell of a way to try to get rich.

Before a wealth tax could seriously be considered for the UK, let alone made operational, a number of important questions would need to be answered: Who would pay it, and on what wealth? How would it affect incentives, for example to save and invest? How would we value assets? What mechanisms would be available for those who have low incomes relative to their wealth? How much revenue could it raise? How would it impact wealth inequality and the creation of wealth? Is there any need for a wealth tax in addition to existing taxes? And would the public support it?
At this crucial juncture for UK policymaking, there remains a lack of evidence on these issues. The last time that a UK government considered a wealth tax was in the mid-1970s. This was also the last time that academics and policymakers in the UK thought seriously about how such a tax could be implemented. Over the past half century, much has changed in the mobility of people, the structure of our tax system, the availability of data, and the scope for digital solutions and coordination between tax authorities. Old plans therefore cannot be pulled "off the shelf".
We published the final Wealth Tax Commission report in December 2020, with the recommendation that, if the government chooses to raise taxes as part of its response to the COVID-19 crisis, it should implement a one-off wealth tax in preference to increasing taxes on work or spending. A one-off wealth tax on millionaire couples paid at one per cent a year for five years, we found, would raise 260 billion.
