Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott are all back and all is right in the world again. This is Scott's best film since 2000's GLADIATOR but I am so displeased that this film only received one Oscar nomination (it went to Rudy Dee for best actress in a supporting role as Frank's mother). I'm really angry Denzel didn't get at least a nod or that the film wasn't on the Best Picture list. This is easily the best crime film since last year's THE DEPARTED and is a new gangster classic! I don't know what it was but it was better with a second viewing. I think with it being unrated and having 18 minutes of additional footage, that's what was probably wrong the first go around.
For a change I liked Russel Crowe. I feel Denzel Washington acts the same in all his movies I have seen. I think the movie wasn't anything special.
I've found are worth my $6-8 every time out the gate.
$6-$8?
Irish, are you under 12?
No, matinees here aren't $10 with the evening shows being $20
