American Gangster

06 Sep 2009 01:22:54 PDT

British director Ridley Scott may not seem a logical choice for this truly American crime drama, but the filmmaker does an excellent job. The film is based on a true story and set in 1968 Harlem, where Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington) is a driver for Bumpy Johnson, one of the top figures in the...

Is Russell Crowe The Next Direct-To-DVD Star? 'Tenderness' Languishes In Limbo

17 May 2009 10:30:00 PDT

There's lots of little tidbits of info in the piece, teases to the fact that this picture will likely be the beginning of a franchise (the end teases a possible sequel, naturally), but it's interesting to hear the rumor that Russell Crowe was going to play Watson before Jude Law scored the r...

Film Review: Body of Lies

27 Oct 2008 19:27:55 PDT

Written by brocknroll
Directed by: Ridley Scott The acting of Leo Dicaprio and Russell Crowe was of course, real good. Another reason I liked about this movie was how Ridley didn't use too many big name stars. Most of the cast were unknowns. Russell and Leo were of course the only big names in the movie.
