American Gangster (2007) Movie Review: Intelligent Gangster Movie or Flawed Hero Worship?
Description
Join Paul and Samir... again, for their ponderings on Ridley Scott's American Gangster (2007).
Ridley Scott is one of the most acclaimed directors of our time. He's made some of the most iconic films of the past few decades, including Blade Runner, Alien, and Gladiator. But he's also made some flops, like Prometheus and Exodus: Gods and Kings.
So which Ridley Scott are we getting with American Gangster? The intelligent and visionary director who crafts complex and morally ambiguous characters? Or the hack who makes glossy but soulless blockbusters?
Join us to find out.
