GREAT MOVIE 10/10....Denzel is the man

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2007)

Anyone who has ever enjoyed watching a Russel Crowe or Denzel Washington movie can't go wrong by watching this one. The two of them together make a great effort to put up a fight for movie of the year. Denzel's acting is great and I only wonder why he has not been putting out more movies. Despite whether or not Denzel portrayed Frank Lucas as his actual character, it still is awesome to see him craft the part into his own and make Frank a likable individual. For 2 1/2 hours you are strictly engaged to the movie, which is very hard to do. It feels as if anything can happen at anytime in the movie making every character decision suspenseful. The only thing I think should have been different was the ending. Richie Roberts should have been waiting outside of his car for Denzel. I know it was based off a true story but the ending was just to dull for me and didn't cut it.
