Plot, Cast, Screenplay, Flaws, Structure and Acting are the areas where I’ll be reviewing this

demonstrates the problems a family has, when one member is unable to fulfill their role in the family, in this case Dolly's role as a mother and wife. Dolly shows an inability to act as a maternal figure to her children, instead she regularly gets drunk and offers sexual favors to many and varied random men.

Eminem constructs an imaginary scenario in which he verbally and physically abuses his wife and then, proceeds to murder her and put her body in the trunk of her car, with his five year old daughter by his side.
