About this product

Product Information

British director Ridley Scott may not seem a logical choice for this truly American crime drama, but the filmmaker does an excellent job. The film is based on a true story and set in 1968 Harlem, where Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington) is a driver for Bumpy Johnson, one of the top figures in the city's criminal world. When Bumpy dies, Lucas swoops in, taking over his predecessor's empire and expanding it over the next few years with his sale of a particularly potent brand of heroin. Meanwhile, New Jersey cop Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe) begins to investigate the New York drug world and discovers that there's a new power in town.Thanks to screenwriter Steve Zallian, as well as Washington and Crowe, AMERICAN GANGSTER creates a convincing portrait of two men who are neither entirely good nor entirely bad. Washington plays Lucas as a man who buys his mother a palatial home but doesn't hesitate to beat his brother's head against a window. Crowe's Roberts may turn in a million-dollar find, but he cheats on his wife. Sadly, they only meet onscreen toward the end of the film, but the minimal interaction between the two Oscar winners is fascinating. Even though the focus is on Lucas and Roberts, AMERICAN GANGSTER is filled with a wealth of strong characters played by talented actors. It seems everyone with a SAG card turns up for the film, including Chiwetel Ejiofor, Josh Brolin, Ted Levine, John Hawkes, Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Carla Gugino, Ruby Dee, Joe Morton, and rappers T.I. and RZA. It's an epic film, with a run time of over two and a half hours, but it's time well spent. Fans of classic crime films such as THE GODFATHER, SERPICO, and CARLITO'S WAY will certainly be pleased by this addition to the genre.

Not Quite 'Scarface' - But Intense !!!!
It's in Denzel Washington's eyes throughout Ridley Scott's 'American Gangster' (UNRATED), that derives a mesmerizing slice of Urban Historical Grit. Based Upon a True Story; Washington is playing Frank Lucas, a Real-Life Crime Boss who for a period lasting from the late 1960s into the following decade ran Manhattan "From 110th to 155th, River to River." A slick character who doesn't need to strut his worth on the streets, Lucas hates flash like a junkie hates rehab; reminding him of all he truly is but doesn't want to be. Facing off against him is New Jersey Narc Detective Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe), a womanizing tough guy with a short fuse but a heart of gold. In a Big-City Police Department in the 1970s, boy scout behavior like his could just get you killed — a guy not on the take is ... It's in Denzel Washington's eyes throughout Ridley Scott's 'American Gangster' (UNRATED), that derives a mesmerizing slice of Urban Historical Grit. Based Upon a True Story; Washington is playing Frank Lucas, a Real-Life Crime Boss who for a period lasting from the late 1960s into the following decade ran Manhattan "From 110th to 155th, River to River." A slick character who doesn't need to strut his worth on the streets, Lucas hates flash like a junkie hates rehab; reminding him of all he truly is but doesn't want to be. Facing off against him is New Jersey Narc Detective Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe), a womanizing tough guy with a short fuse but a heart of gold. In a Big-City Police Department in the 1970s, boy scout behavior like his could just get you killed — a guy not on the take is seen as the guy who could very well "sell you down the river" when the Grand Jury comes sniffing around. Scott has a powerhouse going here, tossing these two Hollywood Heavyweights into the ring and letting them play Cops and Robbers; while he slathers on the period detail with a trowel. Phenominal character actors flood the scenes as well; adding to the cinematic foreplay; (Idris Elba, Jon Polito, Kevin Corrigan, an incredibly sleazy Josh Brolin, and so on). With the specter of Vietnam playing on every television in sight; the Era of 70's plays hard while we also wrap-up in the odd enjoyment one gets from watching Police in the Pre-Militarized, Pre-SWAT days take down apartments with just revolvers, the occasional shotgun, and a sledgehammer to smash down the doors. Scott's smart enough to let the story cohere organically; without rush, keeping his main contenders apart for as long as possible; creating fully developed characters in their own right and not just developed in opposition to the other. The film is evenly divided between the Cop's and the Robber's Stories as they come arcing toward each other; but clearly stays the tale of Frank Lucas (the movie's not called 'American Narcotics Detective'), and as one of the most notorious and fascinating Gangsters in American History, Denzel delivers. Lucas was a country boy from the Carolinas who came up to New York and worked as driver and bodyguard for revered and feared Harlem Crime Lord Ellsworth "Bumpy" Johnson, one of the last of the Great Underworld Bosses. Bumpy taught Lucas everything he knew, so that when he died of a heart attack in 1968, Lucas was ready to take the reins. He almost immediately upset the Mafia, who supplied drugs to "Bumpy", by importing Heroin of unheard purity straight from Southeast Asia and selling it for cheaper than the competition, ultimately doing the criminally unthinkable by becoming the Mafia's supplier. It's an astoundingly gutsy move, particularly given the array of Corruption and Mafia that arrayed against him, but Denzel's got Lucas' grim determination down cold, and the whole paradigm-shifting event (which included secretly importing the Heroin in the coffins of Dead American Soldiers from Vietnam), an act so perverse, it's hard to swallow. Crowe is able to play the conflicted hard-case hero with superb élan until he's dragged off the stage. But Denzel has a cold steeliness in his expression that rarely wavers. While 'Scarface' still holds the American Cinema captive as "Classic"; 'American Gangster' is the next closest thing to it's success; but can't quite reach 'Scarface's' overrall impact. Could anything, though? Great Film !! SEE THIS !!

American Gangster
The story of this real life American is told in such a way as to present what may have been the facts of his life, however morbid or tough they were. It did not attempt to idolize or ostrasize the man and his life, merely present the facts. The screenplay was well adapted. Actor Denzel once again, in the prime of his career, shows his versatility in all roles. A great back up cast, from other Hollywood greats such as Chiwetel Ejiofor, Ted Levine; Josh Brolin, and Ruby Dee. Denzel Washington nails it as the smart and elusive Frank Lucas, who avoids the corrupt law enforcement right down to the time they close in on him. Russell Crowe puts in a strong performance as the overly patient detective, Richie Roberts. Both actors relive the tension between the two characters and make it real as it ...

A bit long, but never boring, with a 40 minute finish laced with intense violence. Just what was needed to keep you interested in the whole story.

Instant Gangster Classic
I have always loved gangster movies. I love Goodfellas, The Godfather, The Departed, and so on. American Gangster now enters that mix, as one of the best gangster movies of all time. Denzel Washington plays the heroin dealer who travels to Vietnam to find the best heroin for the cheapest amount of money. By cutting out the middle man, he offers the best product for the least amount of money, thus eliminating his competition who can't compete with him. All the while, he is gathering enemies on both sides of the law. The only problem is that no one knows who he is, until he decides to show up at the Fight of the Century with the best seats in the house, sporting a mink jacket and hat, while talking to other gangsters. That gives law enforcement agents some insight into who The Kingpin ... I have always loved gangster movies. I love Goodfellas, The Godfather, The Departed, and so on.

Russell Crowe plays the agent who heads the team to try to take down Denzel.I'm not one to give away too much, but it is definitely one of my favorite gangster movies (which means it is one of my favorite movies). Crowe and Washington give absolutely superb performances, and it's confusing why they were snubbed at the Oscars (as was director Ridley Scott). I definitely recommend this movie, especially if you like gangster movies. If you like any of the movies I referred to (Goodfellas, Departed, The Godfather), you'll love this one as well.

Will became a Classic
I saw the movie before I decided to have it in my collection. Great duet and outstanding acting performance by both Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe. This movie, according on true story, shows a part of American History as well. Gangs, corrupted police officers, violence, narcotics, treachery -all it remains actual and today. Great film, keep one for yourself.
