It was alright. There were a lot of other Denzel Movies I liked better. Training Day, Deja Vu, Remember the Titans, Man on Fire...those were all better movies imo.

Training Day was badass when it came out. Just not the same when I watch it anymore. But American Gangster I could watch again and probably enjoy it a few more times. It was slow towards the middle but only because that part lacked the action sequences which we adore so much.
I was a little bored by it. I was expecting more about Frank Lucas. I didn't like how it told Crowe's and Denzel's story and then tied it together. It seemed like it was more about Crowe's character than Frank Lucas. I guess I was looking for something along the lines of Blow or Scarface.

I thought Ridley Scott was spot on with the Direction and tone but it lacked in enthusiasm. He got his actors to do exactly what he needed but I thought the cinematography was too grainy and French Connection-ish. I thought the best performances were from Common and RZA. Common is really becoming a heavy hitter ever since I saw him in Smokin' Aces.
Editing was clean and crisp. The dialogue is what really brought the film down though. It was predictable and reminded me of New Jack City a bit too much.

I thought it was average, it moved way too slow for my liking. If it weren't for Denzel Washington the movie would have been below average IMO. He's just such a great actor, and he's funny too.

I liked the French Connection-ish theme they had going on. It was a blast from the past for sure
