Slow rhythm, sudden turn

The picture is very dark, maybe the director wants to reflect the feeling of the 60s, anyway, I don't appreciate it.
The two protagonists are both old drama bones, and they are speechless. Washington is still the same, playing a wise and determined role. It may be difficult to break through in this life. Of course, I may be more demanding. Crowe is not bad. The films he has played in the past few years are all the same, and there is still room. This is a digression.
I won’t elaborate on the film, so I’m interested in finding it myself. I just don't understand that the police played by Crowe always looked soft and failed. How did the last few words convince Denzel to play the wise and determined gang boss? You must know that in the end, the arrest of so many people was still sentenced to 70 years, although it was later reduced to 15 years. Don't tell me that he is for the family, which family can endure 15 years? What's more, he may not lose if he doesn't admit it, and the 250 million that was confiscated in the end may not be convicted by the jury.
So it feels very abrupt, and the bridge section is not handled properly.

American Gangster quotes

  • Javier J. Rivera: I'm a leper. Because I listened to you and turned in a million fucking dollars. You know who'll work with me after that? Same as you. No one.

  • Rossi: They seize it, arrest everybody, whack it up and sell it back to us. Our dope. They been living off it for years, these New York cops. They basically control the market with it. What the fuck has happened to the world, Frank?
