Many might get confused, as Eminem released a song called Stan in 2000, which tells a story about a person called Stanley "Stan" Mitchell, who claims to be the biggest fan of the rap god. In one interview, Eminem's manager said that he chose the term 'stan' because it rhymed with 'fan.' Since then, this slang has become popular among netizens and has also been included in the Oxford English Dictionary.

Given that, Stans is all about fans. If you look at the trailer, you can find some questions like "Why did you write the song Stan?," "Stan based on a real fan?" "Why do you share so much about yourself in your music?" and "What the hell goes on in your brain?" Well, all of these questions will be answered in it.

One ellygnatova writes,

"The film may not be the best documentary about a famous artist out there, BUT it's a truly special experience for fans - and honestly, that's what matters most."

Another one from Sweden, called Andersberlander, writes,

So cool to be in a packed cinema knowing everyone there has something in common. Super professional documentary that really hit emotionally at times, and there was a lot to relate to. My view of Eminem actually got even better after watching it - mad respect for the guy. Definitely recommend it!

All in all, there are over 600 ratings for the docufilm on IMDb, and most of them are simply 10 out of 10 stars, which tells a lot about this experience.
