It was interesting to learn about the true story behind the film American Gangster. Plus, once the film got rolling, it was quite entertaining. But, for the most part, this movie mumbles along as it drags on for over two and a half hours.
Was moved nice good loved ones moved i love this. Good nis dood
The policeman is no angel in the purest of catholic senses, meaning he has extramarital sex. He is aggressive for an aggressive town. Otherwise he is a nice guy. The gangster is a variation of the old stock character tart with a heart of gold. Again, he is violent, but only because his job requires him to. Usually he too is peaceful. Drugs bring lots of money. And at the same time they are sometimes treated with less respect than wheat flour. Considering the expensive cast, I expected a better script.
That movie gave me chills from start to end. Masterpiece Denzel is just a phenomenon actor. I wanted to see more after watching the movie. What happened to his wife? Have they had kids? Thanks for google all my questions were answered. Thank you for the great entertainment :-) I can't wait to watch some more ... they are forcing us to write at least 5 lines ...
