American Gangsters. Recently watched this movie. A crime movie, based on a true story (that’s what the film title says). Denzel Washington (a drug lord) and Russel Crowe (detective) drive the film. Hope, you don’t mind to read the story or screenplay using Google.I couldn’t say in a single word, whether the movie is good or not. Sure, everyone will get confused like me, after watching this movie :-). If you have not watched ‘GodFather’ or that kind of movies already, you may find this movie in a different skin. Otherwise, you have to keenly search scene by scene what is different or what is interesting in it.
The film rolls over 1970 era. The film skin almost Black and White. I slept unconsciously many times, while watching it.
Nothing was much interesting until it comes to climax. Especially, I liked the conversation going between Denzel and Russel before climax. Denzel is arrested and released at the end, what else then?! It is incomplete! What did he do then … No clues.
As it was already said in the title that the film was based on a true story, one cannot go on arguing why this is so and that is so... Because, this is not based on the imagination of a director or some body else. It’s a true story. Full stop.
Still, I am confused whether the movie is good or not. The problem is, we ‘used to’ watch these kind of movies.
