| Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe in a 2 hour 37 minute film that sometimes seems longer. Director Ridley Scott deftly weaves the lives of bad guy (Washington) and good guy Richard (Crowe) together. While Washington and Crowe provide interest, the film itself has little to offer that’s new. Like sequels to Godfather or Goodfellas (except for the race/nationality of the crooks), we know the basics and the end. |
I so wanted to rate this Must See but it was just a tad too lengthy. The reason to see it is the performances given by Russell Crowe and Denzel Washington. They were just outstanding in their roles of good cop/bad gangster respectively.
