American Gangster | Spill.com Movie Reviews

[BrontoSmilodon1]

this movie as shit and a fail.

[TheRandomvidstv]

@brainsick213

Russel crowe wouldn't have any lines

[agentsmith462]

blue magic

[dornravlin]

to my mind once upon a time in america is the best gangster film

[brainsick213]

what if spike lee directed american gangster?

[jeatcleave]

There Will Be Blood will be forgotten in 20 years, yet American Gangster is destined to be a classic. Uh, yeah...

[fattymannumber1]

the god mama XD

[zirro]

boh-ring. I don't even remember much, if anything, about this film. I'd give it a rental.

[isaachaze1]

@zirro it's weird too. great cast and freakin awesome director and interesting true life story too. but this movie just somehow lacks

[johnnyrockerfella]

i reckon if the roles were reveresed where the white guy was the gangster... it wouldnt have reminded ppl so much of training day.. its basically training day 2...

russel crowe should have been the villain

[woodywoodpecker896]

totally agree with caryle

[Iker122]

good movie, but not great

[SullyIsPrime]

scarface is pretty bad

[TheXD321]

better than  your d@@$ being blown by megan fox naked

[randomfan15]

The Godmama!!  XD

[LiquidSolidRaiden]

Better than sex

[555MARCUS666]

better than sex!

[godanselmo]

Any Denzel Washington is watchable.

[flclfanman]

Great Movie. Not quite on par with the classic mob movies like Goodfellas and Godfather, but definitely one of the best crime movie in the last decade.

Better than Sex.

[NeutralGuy100]

One of my favorite films.

[AdamLazzara77]

DUDE! The only person that feels the same way about most of the movies they review is CARLYLE! he should have been on the Inception review !!

by the way, Lion did not like Inception, WTF?!

[LiquidSolidRaiden]

One of the best crime films ever, it should've at least won a few oscars. This was right up there with Training Day.

[aquapendulum]

I'd pay to see Godmama.

[DraconTakemaru]

i love this movie i dont watch many gangster movies but i loved this one

[KIWI897]

you don't put this up with Godfather! It's just a great Russell Crowe movie

[LiquidSolidRaiden]

@KIWI897 And a great Denzel Washington movie.

[Raltsman]

I didn't like the ending ONLY because I wanted Frank Lucas to win. I'd certainly give this a full price, one of the best crime movies I've ever seen beyond a reasonable doubt. The characters were connectable and realistic for the most part, and they took the "high standard drug dealer winds up in jail" story and delivered some quality emotion.

[KIWI897]

@Raltsman  me too!

[LiquidSolidRaiden]

@Raltsman Yeah, I expected Washington to kick Josh Brolin's ass in the end but instead they opted for a more low-key approach, which is fine, better than a typical Scarface style shootout.

[unc093]

this movie was awesome as hell. the ending didnt feel satisfying though

[Reclaimer77]

Uhh please. If ANY movie was 4'th it would be Donnie Brasco. Or haven't you seen it ?

[TheVgstudio]

no i fucked up 200 millon

[TheVgstudio]

you know whats bullshit FUCKING AVATAR WAS BULLSHIT AND THAT PEICE OF SHIT GOT 2 BILLON DOLLERS AND THIS ONLY GOT 2 milllon

[Reclaimer77]

Did he just seriously rank this up there with the Godfather and Goodfellas? Dude fuck that.

[TheVgstudio]

no you dont get it this movie is 4th to godfather goodfellas casino this movie is better than sex it is the most kick ass movie i have ever seen

[BrownVids]

Better then sex - I tried to watch this before, and failed. But then sat down and tried again. And i REALLY got into it. The characters, the plot and the ingenuity. This is one of the the best films i have EVER seen. A deffo must see

[bbbb111cccc]

i LOVED this movie so much!! one of the best crime films i have ever seen!

[elnes89]

Dont you bring so much meaning into this movie, it is a good movie. Thats pretty much it. The best gangster movie for a good while!

Norwegian!

[Thegeekyguitarist95]

Norge!!!!

[randomfan15]

God Mama! Dam thats was funny!

[LargeLeader]

God, I love this movie. So damned good.

[Landonio1]

Korey sounds like Eddie Murphy.

[Paperbagman555]

I haven't seen the godfather but i've seen this, goodfellas and Scarface... And this movie rocked!!! Goodfellas was better though.

[andersen781]

@Paperbagman555 in ur dreams hater

[Paperbagman555]

How am i a Hater? If i said it's good?

[andersen781]

chuz you said goodfellas was better and it wasnt ...... buddy so calm down u hater ass nuggah day aint no black niggahs in der so it suck ...

[Paperbagman555]

Well, technically there was a minor character in it and it was awesome? There were no black guys in the godfather and if you're saying that sucked than you have no taste.

[Rorschach1212]

Hehe calm down buddy! We are all just hanging out watching a review of a movie. Lets all be happy

[zac3k]

you guys forgot about Hoodlum with Laurence Fishburne.

[JediAutobotX]

LOL! Did not relise this movie had good reviews... maybe I will check it out... :)

[Natgunner]

I loved this movie, i just wish there could've been more music. I swear to god he used the same little music loop over and over again.

[Smokegerbs21]

Gladiator was more like 10 star material u fucking idiot. That movie fukin epic if you dont think so u fukin stupid

[MusicalMaiden92]

I loved this movie! I haven't seen "The Godfather" or any other great gangster/mafia movies, but "American Gangster" was one of the best films of the year. And it was better than "Public Enemies" with Johnny Depp.

[bladerunner162]

A great film

[UberNoodleX]

The climax shootout was stunningly made.

[LadyOFtheAltar]

i loved this movie... it was what? two hours long?

i dont know, but i never had a moment that i wasnt interested with the story...

[MrTLR92]

@LadyOFtheAltar the unrated version is 3 hours

[clashrogers]

@MrTLR92 2 and a half hours actually

[iluvpie1223]

man i loved this movie

[07liberian]

This Movie Opens Up With A Guy Getting Set On Fire. LOL

[Lolmastr]

i agree with carlyle this movie was one of the best crime movies ever

[ronierdj]

it was OK...

[ghfyoug]

GodMama! LOL

[ZandRTheFlop]

I liked Crowe and Washington in Viritiosity.

[greatgmasta]

Funny how the roles were reversed int his one.

[mikeketlo]

serprico knockoff

[arafathcoolguy]

cause i just saw the uncut version the theatrical version they have cut off a nice 30 to 40 minutes but u get the uncut version u get more that anything

[tico8007]

cool

[balrog13571]

Crowe and Scott are awesome!

[btyrsov]

what I found funny about this movie ios Denzel's character Frank Lucas in real live can't HARDLY TALK CLEARLY in real life but Denzel was speaking fine in the movie lol

[IXTakaXI]

Very high full price in my book. Denzel Washington is always great, and the movie itself was terrific.

[Quagmire97]

I am so fucking pissd man, I was actually into this movie than my gay ass friends were saying it was boring and turned it off. Fucking fags...

[gladius900]

4:23 It's George Bush!

[ForrestFilms]

this movie was amazing and brought some much godfather-ness to it and that just made it so damn sweeter!

better then sex!!!

[BeautyU2U]

The woman that played Denze's wife couldn't act. She wasn't all that important but she lacked to me.

[RickyB369]

This movie to me was Flawless i enjoyed every minute of it. It took the gangsta films with a whole new perspective. the acting was marvelous and all in all it was da shit. great movie a Very very high Full Price the only reason i didnt give it better than sex is cuz i only give that to the really epic best movies that i can watch over and over without getting board of it

[UTuberSandwich]

SO WHAT...PRESIDENTS AND EMPORERS HAVE SENT MILLIONS TO THEIR DEATHS. death is death and its never JUSTIFIED.....never!

[AzNMiKaY]
