Now I know where Vince Gilligan got Gustavo Fring. A solid gangster movie with cinematography expected from the likes of Ridley Scott. Washington plays the role perfectly although the real life Frank Lucas was apparently anything but a 'renaissance man'. Movie is memorable watch although it's one of those American gangster films that you have no wish to see anytime soon again as it's a simple, well-told one layer story.

The cast is amazing in this one, but this movie is just way, way too long. It drags on in places in what really is a very simple story. It doesn't really amaze you or really entangle you in its plot, but the actors manage to keep it afloat.

Mann-esque, actually very good up until the conclusion, which is somewhat of a letdown.
