Coy Jandreau (DC Studios Correspondent) and Aaron Alexander react to the iconic crime drama American Gangster directed by Ridley Scott (Gladiator, Blade Runner, The Martian, Alien, Black Hawk Down). We revisit Denzel Washington’s (Training Day, Remember the Titans, Malcolm X, Man on Fire, Fences, The Equalizer, Flight, Inside Man, The Book of Eli, The Magnificent Seven) towering performance as Frank Lucas, and Russell Crowe’s (Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind, Cinderella Man, L.A. Confidential, Master and Commander, The Nice Guys, Man of Steel, 3:10 to Yuma, Robin Hood, The Insider) gripping portrayal of Detective Richie Roberts. We break down unforgettable scenes like Frank Lucas' "My Man" moment, the bold "Blue Magic" confrontation, the intense court scenes, and the explosive final showdown, while also exploring the true story behind the movie’s real-life crime saga. This gritty masterpiece blends powerful performances with an unflinching look at ambition, loyalty, and corruption in 1970s New York.
