American Gangster

Post by Bovinagina »

What did you think of it?

I'm watching it at the moment and Russel Crowe's preformance is pretty aweful. It's down right pityful.

Great movie, happy Crowe's not in it too terribly often, and my dad thinks the best thing about the movie is that there is a '69 Dodge A-100 van/truck in it. He's a little obsessed with them. :roll:

Denzel Washington did his best performance ever in this movie. Only training day comes close.

I liked when Denzel's character was slamming his cousin in the piano, then it ended with that sickening crunch! I was all "Duuuuuuude"

Nice GG. Yeah Denzel's preformance was amazing. The only other preformance that I really liked was in Remember the Titans.

Remember the Titans was the only other movie of his you liked?

Denzel was awesome in Training Day, JohnQ, The Hurricane, The Bone Collector, Man On Fire, Out of Time, Crimson Tide, The Manchurian Candidate......the list goes on Denzel Washington is one of the best actors out there and his performance in American Gangster was top notch, I think he is perfect for the movie.

I don't think there is anybody else that could have done as good as he did.
Yeah, you were right about me, but can I get myself out from underneath this guilt that will crush me? in the choir, I saw our sad Messiah he was bored and tired of my laments
