Very Impressive Cast and Perfect Character Development,
25 August 2013
American Gangster is a fantastic movie with a really well developed storyline and a very talented cast.Denzel Washington and Russel Crowe both matched their characters perfectly,which I was surprised with because they both didn't seem like characters they were use to playing,it also was a very different movie for Ridley Scott,and he did a very impressive job with it.The character development in this movie is practically perfect,you mostly follow Russel Crowe and Denzel Washington's characters,and I didn't feel like they left out a lot of information and really took their time letting use get to know these characters.I would highly recommend American Gangster to all fans of gangster crime films.

Set during the seventies,Richie Roberts (Russel Crowe) will stop at nothing to bring down the massive drug business of the dangerous and highly wanted Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington).
