Are you kidding me!

Rating: 3/10 (25 October 2007)

I don't want to give away anything about the film so I will give you my broad opinion. The anticipation I had for seeing this film was off the charts, and I tell you, that excitement ended about 5 minutes into the film. Ridley Scott delivers something that has the feel of a student film, the acting is mediocre except for Denzel, Josh Brolin and Russel did a decent job oh and Mama Lucas was also believable at times. The dialog is so so, the cinematography was nice, the cuts could have been better. I was never able to get absorbed in the film, it felt so fake and unattached.
I compare this film to the New York Yankees. You have an all star cast and crew, but even with all the talent in the world if someone can't make them bond and become one unit you have a talented ugly mess. I don't see American Gangster getting nominated for any awards what so ever.
