Saw the trailer a while back, looks like it will be pretty amazing.

I've been hoping for years that someone would do a decent portrayal of some of the Harlem kingpins from the mid 20th century that wasn't saturated in glitz and glamour, attempting to be a comedy or just generally tongue in cheek, hopefully this is it.

Also if this film doesn't have a ridiculously good soundtrack I'll be highly disappointed, hopefully its all stuff from the 1970's too.

Also:
Chiwetel Ejiofor Idris Elba Jon Polito Armand Assante Cuba Gooding Jr RZA Pretty ridiculous ensemble, no idea how big all of the above's roles will be, would be cool to see Polito and Elba get some decent airtime though |

Gooding is playing Nicky Barnes apparently, that cat deserves a film all of his own

Armand Assante... Christ, when i think of him all that comes to mind is bloody Judge Dredd, and his bad acting. I hope he has improved since then.

Idris Elba is " Stinger " isnt he? If so, he's awsome.
I cant wait for this movie. Denzel and Russel Crowe. Are you kidding me? Thats a modern day Pacino De Niro imo. |

Armande Asante has been great in alot of movies. I think he fits this movie perfectly.

Saw it tonight.
It was amazing imo. Denzel was the perfect role for this. Crowe had an awesome role too. Some of the statstics they gave at the end of the movie were amazing too. |

Quite possibly my favorite movie of the year. This is going to be one of my top picks for a long time to come. One of Denzel's best performances. Probably one of Crowe's better ones (not quite best, but very good).

I saw it last night, it was long and a little confusing toward the beginning, but a very good movie.

Solid movie.
But really, Denzel is the most overrated actor ever. Dude has no range. He just plays "Denzel Washington" in almost every film. |

I haven't seen this movie yet and Denzel is a good actor but yeah I can't get over the fact that he's Denzel lol. I guess he doesn't need to be anyone else.

Denzel's range pretty much consists of facial hair, partial facial hair, gotee, clean shaved.
But i love him anyways. |

It was a prety awesome movie, it was a long movie but didn't feel like it.
One thing I didn't get, and no it's not a spoiler. But there was a 30 second scene where he buys a grand piano. Maybe I missed something but wtf was the point of that scene. |

Just finished watching it - awesome.
BTW I like Denzel, but Russell Crowe totally stole the show. |
