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.
What, there were other crime movies between October 2006 and November 2007? Really?
