another classic from ridley!!!

Rating: 9/10 (11 September 2013)

Ridley Scott does gives his best shot in converting an ordinary mafia story in to a great movie with an excellent plot...theirs no drag nor any BS...this movie is an example of how real life stories should be presented without any unnecessary over stylish scenarios...
ridley Scott delivers the story of mafia king frank Lucas both his rise and fall in a convincing yet moving manner...this ones a different one from other gangster movies and the way its presented is truly entertaining.
even though the climax is a bit predictable Ridley keeps bit suspense around the corners and and keeeps it interesting enough..
the performances by the cast Denzel,Crowe,Brolin are class..especially by Denzel who gives a commanding performance as frank Lucas who is bit soft hearted yet cold blooded crooked gangster who will charge forward without hesitation..
My verdict is that this movie is an entertaining crime thriller with great performances by its leads,just don't get your hopes too high or you will be disappointed...
