Personaly it's my all time favorite Gangster movie.
No, it doesn't get slow.
Just to give a factual example: "There were 360 scenes filmed in over 180 different locations."
And whne you see it, you'll see.
I loooved it. I saw it many times.
Now, I have a 17 nephew, and I showed her "goodfellas", "Godfahter" and "Amercian Gangster"
She likes "goodfellas"
She thought the GODFATHER was boring..
as for American Gangster, she like it very much, but was dissapointed there wasn't as much Violence as "goodfellas". That's the only thing.
It's violent, btw.
But it's more about the Story.
I highly advise it. -

You'd love it. Great story, and most importantly, very proper. No nonsense like "'bro' is black" or "'bro' is white" slang here. In fact they say it's Italian, because the only character who use it are mobsters. Proper movie

It's Hollywood cheese. Very stagey, phony tough guy movie that never lets you forget that you are watching Denzel Washington trying to win an Oscar. I gave up at the 1 hour mark. but then I am not a fan of Hollywood movies in general, especially these big budget, showy movies with huge mainstream stars. You might like it, and most people did. If you want to see a realistic urban crime film, check out the movie "Trick Baby" from 1972. It's the real thing.
