Frank Lucas don't run from nobody.

Rating: 7/10 (14 May 2008)

Well, he should have run from Russell Crowe. So, he makes a deal and gets off with 15 years. What about all those people he killed, Richie? I was anxious to see this film as I am a Denzel Washington fan, but I have to say that it does not live up to the hype. I would watch The Godfather or Goodfellas again before I watch this film a second time.
Yes, Denzel was good, but he really didn't have a lot to work with as far as a story. The real story was Richie's efforts to bring down the corrupt cops. That's been done so many times, that you just think of New York cops as corrupt.
A best supporting actress award nomination for Ruby Dee? Give me a break. She had one scene of note. She's a great actress, but not in this movie, folks.
Me, I'm looking for Thieves and Liars so I can see some more of Lymari Nadal.
