American Gangster



Denzel Washington, usually such a typical "good guy", shows a different side when he plays Frank Lucas a Harlem Gangster who rules the streets with his pure heroin and his vicious enforcement. Russell Crowe takes on the role of "good guy" by playing Richie Roberts the cop leading the unit trying to take down the key drug lords. I thought this was pretty good. It has kind of a small plot twist in the end that I thought really made the movie enjoyable.
