The Globe and Mail
The Globe and Mail"Jim Sheridan's film... lacks an emotional core."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"Ultimately, the biggest failure of Get Rich or Die Tryin' is that it doesn't do what 8 Mile did -- it doesn't make the case for its protagonist as a gifted person, and we don't come away understanding it as an artist's story."

San Francisco Chronicle"For all its biographical truth, Get Rich's journey into a ghetto of hustlers, gangstas and mindless violence is all too familiar."
—
Hollywood Reporter
Hollywood Reporter"There's very little spark in the wooden screen presence of the star and the dearth of subtext or style from the director."
