American Gangster..

[PУCCKAЯ_e30ka]

I thought this movie was ok... nothing spectacular or anything... i liked the 60ies-70ties settings... that's bout it. Nothing in this movie was cool to make it an "awesome movie"

I need to see this flick...

on a side note, has anybody picked up Jay Z's new album entitled American Gangster? Basically he saw the sneak peek of the movie, and decided to come out of retirement and devote an album to it... I picked it up the other day, havent listened through yet, no time... but it's epic already.

One thing I don't understand is that Washington is a "bad guy", yet we are suppose to feel good for him just because hes black? I don't get it..

Here in Austin we have a little thing called the Alamo Drafthouse. It's a theater where you can order food and beer and they bring it to your seat while you watch. Instead of shitty commercials for "The Twenty" or advertisements for coca-cola, they showed some badass, super obscure chase scenes and trailers for old 70s era ganster flicks before American Gangster.

We have that here, too. It's called McMennamins, they have them all over the Northwest. They take like old churches, schools, whatever and they turn them into restaraunt/pubs, with movie theaters. It's only $3 for a movie, and they do the same thing with the food/beer. They had Super Troopers last year, I went and saw that and got fucking trashed, then they had Shaun of the Dead, it was epic.

I feel you guys on boycotting movie theaters. There is an exception where I'm from though.

i just downloaded it but i cant find the correct audio codec... anyone recommend a good player.

As mentioed above i boycott theaters for the same reasons... however if i like the flick i usually will buy the high def version.

VLC player will open anything.

Good movie

and I helped a girl at work today that looked EXACTLY like Frank's wife

Denzel is good, as usual, along with Crowe, but the film is hyped. Defiantly entertaining, but not anything special.

It doesn't hold a candle to One, Two or Goodfellas IMO.

I also enjoyed that movie a lot. The recreation of the flaming 70's was great. Great (real) story too. I highly recommend it. It's just like "The French Connection".
