Even though this movie is 2-1/2 hours long, it is so well written and filmed, that it constantly moves along. However, be warned, there is a fair amount of violence. The good news is that there is good amount of action and suspense, enought to keep you fully occupied until the end. We would give it a strong 4-Stars. DESCRIPTION: This movie is a tense crime thriller, starring two-time Oscar winner Denzel Washington as true-life Harlem drug lord Frank Lucas. Oscar winner Russell Crowe, with an outstanding performance, co-stars as the dogged outcast NYPD cop charged with bringing Lucas down. Cuba Gooding Jr., Josh Brolin and Chiwetel Ejiofor lead the supporting cast in this powerhouse tale penned by Oscar winner Steven Zaillian (Schindler's List).

American Gangster reminds me yet again what a versatile actor Russell Crowe is… plus Ridley Scott deftly leads us into loving the bad guy and disliking the good guy only to flip that around by the end of the movie... very clever.
