Review of American Gangster (2007) by Jose Miguel G — 17 Feb 2018
Filmed in old school style, Ridley Scott crime-drama certainly has the strength that characterizes most American gangster flicks, including neat direction, characters and the always reliable "based on a true story" trademark to power things up, but some pacing issues get in the way in what else could've been Denzel Washington's roll of his life, but although the movie lacks a strong enough focus, it can help but to shine among Scott's best, thanks to an effective style and A+ cast.
