American Gangster

Rating: 9/10 (23 February 2008)

I was looking forward to seeing this film.
I was not disappointed.
Russell (the reason I bought this DVD package) was great. Denzel did a good job as well.
Interesting story to follow.
The film is long but in this case you do not mind. You do NOT get bored.
I did NOT like however the unnecessary nudity. AND WE DID NOT NEED TO SHOOT THE DOG.
Excellent DVD package. Although some of the extras were TV specials or parts of programs I had already taped.
It is, of course, violent.
If you are a fan of Russell ?s, Denzel?s or Ridley?s you will enjoy the film.
I input this review the day before the 2008 Oscars. TOO BAD the films did not get more nominations.
