American Gangster — 

The movie was good.  I enjoy movies based on true stories, even though we all know that they may write a lot more than the truth into the movie script.  Denzel Washington did an excellent job in this role.  As the movie progressed, you get the feeling that all this really could have happened.  None of it was so far out there that it was unbelievable.

 My only complaint is that the movie was so very long!!!!!  We watch a DVD with dinner each afternoon, and this one lasted a full week.   It was interesting, but it was way too long.

 If you like gangster movies, you will enjoy it.
