Brief Description

Item#: 11130533
    2-Disc Set

    British director Ridley Scott may not seem a logical choice for this truly American crime drama, but the filmmaker does an excellent job. The film is based on a true story and set in 1968 ...

American Ganster
rapm54  from Phila., PA,  May 21, 2008
Denzel has done it again with a fabulous performance! It is hard watching him as a "bad" guy but that is the test of a true performer. Not as gritty as Training Day but a great performance by him and that other guy. (Just kidding...Russell Crowe) A must see for fans of either of these incredible actors.

American Gangster
debknowlt  from Goshen, NY,  Apr 18, 2008
Superb acting highlights this gritty look at bloody American drug gangs (from the top down) and the incorruptible police officer who brought them down in the 1970s. Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington, both of whom can always be counted upon to give audiences 110% performance, are superlative in showing the enmity, yet also the underlying respect each has for the other's loyalty to his cause,i.e. one the law and its enforcement; the other, h is family and creating a better life for them.

AMERICAN GANGSTER
Beautiful13  from PHILADELPHIA, PA,  Apr 14, 2008
I ENJOYED THE MOVIE VERY MUCH. I FOUND MYSELF FOCUSING ON THE EVENTS TAKING PLACE IN THE MOVIE, WITHOUT THE NEED TO REMIND MYSELF TO PAY ATTENTION. BOTH RUSSELL CROWE AND DENZEL WASHINGTON ARE WONDERFUL ACTORS, YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN FOR A TREAT WHEN THEY ARE PART OF THE CAST. THESE TWO TALENTED INDIVIDUALS, COMBINED TO PRODUCE A TRUELY ABSORBING MOVIE. I WAS ALSO VERY HAPPY TO BE ABLE TO REWIND OCCASIONALLY, AS I THINK BOTH ARE OUTRAGEOUSLY ATTRACTIVE!!!!

Amazing!
smg4uc  from Cincinnati Oh,  Mar 22, 2008
I loved this movie, I was so excited to see it. I wanted to see it in theatres but there is something about watching it from your own home. Now I get to watch it, all the time, whenever I want, for a smaller price. Absolutely love OverStock!!

American Gangster
edit01  from Hagerstown Md.,  Mar 20, 2008
Quality of my DVD is poor, daytime seem like a foggy afternoon. Had to adjust my picture quality. The plot, same old shoot 'um up...man! The mother tries to keep the peace and is sooo surprise that her son bought her this new house. (not a clue that the money came from drugs and other crimes). The plus in this movie is the well known actors in this movie...some with academy awards.

The acting is great but the story line isn't moving. One gangster movie is like another gangster movie.
