Entertainment Yes! Based Very Loosey On a True Story Also!

Rating: 6/10 (7 November 2007)

I really enjoyed the movie by all means. All the characters brought something to the table. Before watching the movie, I did my research on the huge Harlem heroin epidemic in the late 60's and early 70's. I learned about the key players involved in the movie which really made it a lot more enjoyable. Its really funny how all the "King Pins" were suppose to be these "Hardcore Gangsters" who ran Harlem, but in really it was just clicks of 5 or 10 people who were friends in the drug business. Yes, they had respect, but they lost it as quickly as they got it. And in the end, all of them "Ratted,Turned,Flipped" what ever you want to call it. They all sold each other out like cowards to save their behinds. So, you can call them American.... But way to far from Real Gansters.
