American Gangster.
I am not a very big fan of Denzel Washington, but I must admit...he impressed the heck out of me in this one. He and Russell Crowe are picture-perfect characters who are involved in a cops and robbers game with a nice mobster touch, re-living the legend of Frank Lucas, the ruler of New York of the 70s. Rivetting movie from start to finish, complimented by some really brilliant direction by Ridley Scott.
I highly recommend this to Alky, newb, Rod, Jenna, Fortunato and the rest who love fast-paced, gritty flicks which leaves you glued to your seats.
Rated - ****
