Here I was, entering the cinema thinking that this movie would be strongly violents and gruesome, but man was I ever so wrong!
There was rare action, but the drama was great.
The action when delivered to the audience, was moderately entertaining too.

The cast lined up for this movie was exceptional. I mean, you have got two of the best actors in the buisness, starring in the one flick.
Washington is one of my favourite actors so that is what mainly encouraged me to go witness this film.
And I have to say, Denzel nailed his role this time as well. rowe was decent, but could have portrayed his chracter a little better.

The story is fairly good but the pace slows down dramatically in the middle of the movie. So you might experience a bit of boredom hence the middle of the movie but don't stop watching the movie, it gets a whole lot better, trust me.

In conlusion, I enjoyed this movie and highly recommend this ttile to anyone.
Definitely worth watching and I felt that I had spent every cent well when the creits began to role.

I hate to say this about any Denzel movie, but I did not like it at all. I made about four attempts to watch this movie and I fell asleep every time. It was a complete disappointment. I think the fact that I don't like gangster movies plays a big part in the reason why I voted the way I did. Maybe I am missing something because everyone seems to love it. American Gangster will not be apart of my personal collection. Sorry.

This is great movie.
One of the best this year, but it coul be better.

This is great movie.
One of the best this year, but it coul be better.

Story is great. It is inspired by a true story of Frank Lucas drug lord who was born 1930 and is still alive. At the end it is a little stretched and long.

Ridley Scott has done great job directing this movie. He has realy capture atmosphere of that time. He presents caos times when the cups were using their power illegaly.
Role of Lucas was realy goor for Denzel Washington so his acting was similar to his other movies, but still he has done good job.
Russell Crowe was great in this one. He played som many different roles over the years. Once again different role (between Gladiator and Perfect mind) and great acting.
