Good Movie
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really enjoyed it. Based on a true story. Will have to watch the directors cut that is included next. Its long though so dont start watching late at night like I did. Youll end up staying up and watching it all!

Good movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ridley Scott (director) can be counted on for good movies, and here he scores with an "American Gangster", a movie based on true events during the Viet-Nam war era. The story takes place in NYC and tells of the rise of a heroin importer who wants the American dream life and the cop on his trail who refuses to succumb to corruption while many of his fellow narcotic officers do. Great cast and acting--led by Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe; good soundtrack too. Definitely recommended!

Story about a successful career criminal
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fascinating movie based on a true story about a career criminal that built a drug empire using many unique plans to become one of the biggest drug dealers in the mid west. He avoided discovery for many years. He eventually became over confident ignoring the techniques that kept him safe and helped him avoid the law. He was finally discovered by the police. The movie consists about his rise and eventual downfall. Well worth watching and very entertaining. The story isn't about violence but how he used his wit to become a successful criminal.

Gets better over the years
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this is one of those movies for me when I first saw it I thought it was just alright. But over the years you try it here and there, watching clips, and realize its a lot better than you thought. Denzels performance is really good. Not quite on par with Training Day in which I thought he was awesome in.

American Gangster $K
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a great movie with two big name stars, and a big name director. The two stars interact, and they're both the "good guys" to some degree. The only problem is the audio on the 4K. It's delayed and isn't syncked to the video.

Well done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Based upon a true story, American Ganster has an exceptional cast and was directed by Ridley Scott (Alien, Gladiator, Thelma and Louise, Blade Runner, Alien Covenant, etc.). You have a choice of the unrated version or theatrical. Pick, the almost three hour, unrated version.

American Gangster
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like this movie. Was looking forward to the 4k upgrade. While it def looks cleaner and sounds good, the actual transfer is not a huge jump.

Overrated movie, great disc.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Crime epic falls short of classic but wealth of extras on disc make it an ideal purchase. Includes both theatrical and unrated cuts.

Predictable Good Cop, Bad Cop
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Based on a true story... the turn of events is an eye opener of politics in the law enforcement industry. Nothing is as it should be. This film will shatter the utopian ideal we desire to live in.

Well Organized, Acted & Directed True Movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.TO me it was: Well Organized, Acted & Directed True Story. Denzel & Russel Crow are superb. You almost like the bad guy Denzel because he does such a fine job acting in it.
