  • Cuba gooding junior seems like a complete fucking moron

  • @fancythathat

    I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion. He's explaning the relationship between the character he plays and Frank Lucas.

  • @tokinblckgie I came to that conclusion because he does.

  • RUSELL CROWE DENZEL WASHINGTON ,CUBA,CHIWETELL TOGETHER JUST FUCKING AMAZING.

  • @planta46 can u imagine this movie with SAMUEL L. JACKSON

  • 2:27 what is the name of that song??????? please comment!

  • this film is a lie. this film was based on Nicky Barnes Life frank lucas is a country boy. the documentary "Mr.Untouchable" is the real deal.

  • "American Gangster" and "The Untouchables" were the two greatess non-fictional gangster movies ever made, and everyone in both those films blew their parts away! Two must have's for your library!

  • Why does America glorify The Godfather but put Frank Lucas in the mud?

  • @Merrida Because Frank Lucas is black!!

  • @Merrida duh white people. the only reason mr. lucas was brought down was the italians pushed roberts to crush him. funk they had mafia testifying waa we got put out the heroin trade by a black man. plain and simple a rich black gangster is more a criminal threat in the united states than a white ,italian and mexican gangster.

  • BEST FILM EVER.

  • I thought the movie was awesome. Cuba & Denzel were very cold in this flick. Cuba was a little creepy, look at his eyes in this movie. Denzel was the same way, especially during the violent scenes.

  • I'm loving Chiwetel's accent.

  • loved this film, fuckin amazin all round.

  • American Gangster was bomb! every scene was linked to each other and presented in an intelligent way, if it hurts your brain to see it go sell some crack.

  • The movie was kinda dull, and crowe really sucked i mean he ruined it for me, and yeas a bunch of snitches BOOOOOOO!

  • Russel Crowe's accent in this is pathetic! The worst.

  • man! you must be the insane!)

  • this was by the far the worst gangster movie ever. why make a movie about a snitch? Even denzel looked bored in the movie, he just lacked the energy and enthusiasm. The movie was just boring and unoriginal. I couldnt even finish it, i think i watched like half of it.

  • cause this movie is not for kids... .

  • at America gangster movie..Cuba had any dialogue?? in my memories ..he had nothing dialogue

  • the bloke who played huey lucas and russel crowe have got quality american accents!!

  • i agree with you my friend..most people who arent familiar with these actors wont know that crowe is from australia via new zealand and chiwetel ejiofor is british, great actors, its funny because british do american accents real well..while americans dont do british accents so well

  • Ye thats probably because the rest of the world is exposed to US culture and TV a lot more than america is exposed to british culture and TV.

    Still very hard to get an accent as perfect as that tho!

  • lol u got a good point. britains do amercian accents so well but some american actors suck at british accents

  • you wouldn'd think that two of the guys in this film are british

  • wow didn't even no the man hus character is franks bruva was bristish wow nd hu ever sed he was tlkin english is extremely stupid . llool soz but that was pretty dum

  • wtf did you just say?

  • u mean huey lucas and frank lucas init lol

  • best movie of 2007: american gangster>:P

  • ha emsing2001, sorry that it bothers you that frank lucas is a black man, when it is well documented that all low life murdering gangster are italians, but like you said if they would have wanted frank lucas territory they would have took it, right {rip scarface capone died from complication of syphilis 1947}

  • its doesn't matter anyway.he is my nigga.. from uk orginal african.. from tribe of igbo..plus . he is good actor.. accent doesn't mean a shit..i love this movie..

  • I met Cuba Gooding Jr. at a resturaunt in L.A. because his limo broke down! He is so nice!

  • I love him his so talented

    Denzel and Tigerwoods

  • yeah right, you met him and spoke to him huh?

  • People who don't live in L.A. sometimes find this hard to believe, but you will see and interact with celebrities fairly often if you live/work/shop in certain parts of this town.

    I don't doubt that the other poster met the cat. I met him myself right after he was nominated for an Oscar years ago.

    I agree, he is a nice guy.

  • ive never gotten more than plus 5 for any comment on youtube

    you haters

    i havent even seen this film, but denzel is always pretty good

    life is mundane violence breaxs it up and gives it meaning but i am against all violence

    gabeo

  • Chiwetel is not British. He's Nigerian. He only grew up in England.

  • @faye06 That doesn't make him less British.

  • It's funny hearing him talk with American accent and he's sooo British.

  • Idris Elba is even more shocking when you hear his English accent.

  • that's true. i so didn't expect to hear it the first time i heard it.

  • whats the last rap song paying at 3 min called?

  • its jay-z ft t.i. & bun b - pimpin is born

  • Chiwetel is indeed sexy!!! I fell in love with him when he played "Victor Sweets" in Four brothers. Ummmmm, ummmmm good :).

  • I love this movie

  • Chiwetel is very handsome!

  • Oh! He is. He's hot in every movie I've seen him in.

  • what about Cuba

    what does it thinc abotu Fidel Castro

  • i got this film on dvd

  • Chiwetel is so sexy!

  • i luv it

  • nicky barnes is just a sick ass name

  • is he drunk or tired? he slurring alot

  • i didn't know that bald guy was d'lo brown in this movie

  • He is of Nigerian descent but was raised in the UK.

  • Man he was the shit in 4 brothers!! Excellent boss

  • Before you call either of them a snitch do your research. Nicky Barnes got locked up and his friends/business associates took all of his money and fucked his wife! So if u facing 25-30yrs in prison and your friends taking all your shit and wife you would want to get them back. Frank is far from a snitch he never to a stand

  • Yeah, frank and nicky were both a snitch.

    If Frank Lucas was above the mafia than I am the CEO of a F500 company.

  • y'all talkin' like you can handle toe pressure when it comes down to the come down, most of you niggaz would probably wouldnt and couldn't even spend an hour in jail without cryin' for you mama, so don't talk like you would have never cooporate with the cops. Give the man some credit.

  • What is this guy English?

  • I see you got an award from BET. Glorifying gangsters is black media attacking the black family. The black family is the single parent and grandparent (mother) for most black people. They are killing our children. Even Frank Lupas regretted that.Males in this industry just want a dollar at any cost and are just as bad as those drug dealers. You are just legal.

  • I saw da movie yesterday, it was a nice movie with denzel and russel, I really liked the ending when they had dat little conversation

    "u know if u wasn't my brother i'd kill you, you know dat?"...lol, found that funny...

  • how the fuck does that dude have a english accent and talk hood in the movie, always thought that brother had talent......

  • I agree with that.

  • What a lot of people don't realize that its apparently easier for foreign actors to do "American" accents and harder for American actors to do foreign accents. Johnny Depp, for example...as great an actor he is, his crack at an english accent is crap! Only exception, crap American accents I've heard were from Jude Law and Jason Statham. TERRIBLE

  • his jack sparrow's accent was crap? his j.m. barrie accent was crap? his sweeney todd accent was crap?

  • YES it was crap. I have cousins and have visited the UK numerous times. Okay, maybe its not crap...it's theatre-friendly at best. But I've heard just about every version of the English accent and Depp's doesn't fit any. That was besides my initial point anyway.

  • I too have been to the UK and I think Depp's accent is solid. Solid enough to be nominated for three Oscars - all for playing characters using British accent.

  • you heard Leo di Caprio in Blood Diamond

    brew

    that has to be the worst South African accent

    ever

  • As someone who is a resident of the country, I can tell you his accent was not bad at all.

  • may 15 2008 boycott everything

  • cuba gooding's first good film in 10 years! Too bad he played a snitch

  • c'mon stop it, I guess you haven't seen many of the movies that he has done. You too stuck on that negative shit, I guess you get a kick out of seein' other people actin' scarface roles huh?

  • I think that if Frank lucas had used his over 250 million in raw assets to build a loyal army, and placed thim into the newpaper media, the police, in government and etc, he could've literally run part of new england. a king, only under the rockefellers and other new york based elite.

  • people had said back in the 70s that black organized crime would become a rival the mafia. but in the end, "snitching" and the lack of loyalty brought them down. the same things that started to bring down the mafia during the same time period.

  • yeah.. its a catch 22. really sad. if blacks would've unified under that banner and gained prominence through the manipulation of their own people and the subsequent development of a super underclass, we would become much richer but we would really be no better than the whites who shipped in the drugs.

  • Very good point

  • Huey Louis?

  • Huey Lucas, that is the character he plays in 'American Gangster'

  • I still trip when I hear Chiwitel speak in his native language.

  • Native LANGUAGE? You mean ENGLISH? You mean the language Chiwetel always speaks? In real life and in film? Chewie's cute, even if he was speaking Latin.

  • He was actually born in Nigeria, my doctor knew him funnily enough

  • Really? I'm Nigerian too. At least half anyway.

  • He was not born in Nigeria. His parents are Nigerian, he was born in East London, UK. He is Igbo, Nigerian, and in essence, African.

  • He's speaking English you mook.

  • Jay-Z Pimpin is born

  • wat song is dat at the end

  • first,.. Livewire- :p
