 | | 1. American Gangster (HD & DVD Combo) | | | Starring: Denzel Washington Russell Crowe Director: Ridley Scott | | Format: High Definition DVD Release Date: 2/19/2008 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | American Gangster - DVD Review By: Chris Barsanti - filmcritic.com DVD Reviews Published on: 2/8/2008 5:27 PM | |
There's something dead in Denzel Washington's eyes nearly all of the way through Ridley Scott's American Gangster, which takes what should have been a mesmerizing slice of urban historical grit and grinds it into roughly two hours of standard issue cinema. Washington is playing Frank Lucas, a real-life crime boss who for a period lasting from the late 1960s into the following decade, ran Manhattan "from 110th to 155th, river to river." A real slick character who doesn't need to strut his worth on the street, Lucas hates flash like a junkie hates rehab: It reminds him of all he truly is but doesn't want to be. read the full review | |

Zodiac (Director's Cut) | | | Starring: Chloë Sevigny Jake Gyllenhaal Director: David Fincher | | Format: DVD Release Date: 1/8/2008 | | Video Reviews Available: 1 |  | Zodiac - Director's Cut - DVD Review By: Chris Gesiakowski - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 1/10/2008 10:04 PM | | When compared to the theatrical version, Zodiac: Directors Cut is not an entirely new beast, as only six minutes have been added to the film. It is, however, the definitive version for fans and newcomers alike. While the new material doesnt necessarily alter the experience on a grand scale, it does offer a couple of nice gems, ones which would be sorely missed if swayed to watch the theatrical cut again. read the full review | |

Instead everything is played straight with the story, acting, and few moments of suspense intended to carry the day. The scenes where Zodiac meets up with his victims are chilling to watch and turn up the suspense ratchet, but the long wait in between, mostly discussions between the various combinations of cops and reporters, dilutes their impact. read the full review | |
