Russel Crowe was perfect for the role as Richie Roberts. He should of been nominated for best supporting actor for this movie. And Brad Pitt is one of the most overrated actors in Hollywood right now. He has not done a single good performance outside of Seven. Which he should thank God they casted Morgan Freeman to carry his dead beat ass.

I think that Russell Crowe is a very talented actor who should have at least two oscars already and who should be much better rated than he is. I am not going to compare him with other actors because it is not a nice thing to do and because i am sure that when you like an actor you are not able to be objective, and this happens to everybody. In my case, I really hope that Russell will be nominated again to some prizes as he was in the past because he really disappears in the character he plays and this is, for me, true acting.

to return to the main topic..hmmmm i did not think of other actors who can play this role, but i thought crowes acting is just not that good. another thought i had while watching is, that since a beautiful mind he somehow plays every role a bit in the same vein (sure, didnt see every singel movie with him). You know, that kind of somehow dumb person, with that sad dog eyes and whos life is ruined by other persons. just my thoughts while watching.

I don't think Pitt is overrated, he is actually a pretty good actor. Many great films in his career and some very strong performances as well.
About Richie Roberts, Russell Crowe was really great in that role. One of his most overlooked turns.
This is - excuse me - a damn fine cup of coffee. -

Actually I think Russell did a good job in this movie. He even looks like the real Det. Roberts. When I was watching the extras I saw Richie Roberts and I thought "If Russell Crowe eats enough burgers he will look like this guy in 15 years or so"

Hell no! Russell Crowe is the best actor out there. Every role he takes he creates more out the character. Detective Richie Roberts was potrayed by Russell Crowe, and the performance was astonising. Crowe's the best!

What are you guys talking about? The reason why i like this movie so much is because of Russell Crowe. Denzel delivers another solid performance like he has done quite a few times but Crowe is what made the movie for me.

Caught an edited version on AMC today the exchange between Crowe and Washington in prison at the end, after Washington's character was nailed, was one for the ages. In real life, Frank Lucas was very charismatic. Denzil nails it.
