Deep down there's nothing wrong with American Gangster, but the contents never really justify the 2.5 hour running time. Looks great, though the acting ranges from decent to so-so.

I don't think there will be many people out there who don't like this. It's well paced (although very long!), well acted, it's a good story, has some great scenes, and a good ending. It's not groundbreaking by any means, but it is a very solid film indeed.

Denzel is being Denzel and the others do just enough to carry him but not more. It is hardly original, but maybe that is too much to ask in this conservative genre. The photo is striking and there are a few great scenes, but they are connected by a long and plodding narrative. Confusingly, some scenes end in very sudden cuts that I have a hard time seeing the point of.

I recognize that it's a well crafted movie, but I couldn't get too into it. I really liked Crowe and thought Washington was good as well (although he had a tendency to overact at times). Overall, I just felt underwhelmed. I would have thought Ridley Scott directing some highly talented actors would be a sure favorite but it just felt a bit too generic and didn't give me anything I hadn't felt like I've seen before.
