8 Mile works well for learners who already understand English comfortably and want more challenging listening practice. Learners will hear plenty of useful natural English, but some lines may still require a second listen. Following the story requires attention, so language difficulty is not the only challenge here. The dialogue moves at around 119 words per minute, with frequent back-and-forth exchanges. If your English is close to C1/C2, 8 Mile can be useful for getting used to faster spoken English.
