"Watch American Gangster without preconceived ideas. While the film is long it never drags. You don't get the sense that you've seen this movie before. It's not Serpico. It's not The Wire. It's not The Sopranos. While much is going on, the story is easy to follow. There is action, but this isn't an "action movie". Both Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe act convincingly and give depth to their characters. The film leaves you wanting to know more about about happened to the lead characters. You care about them that much. Now *that's* film making...."
