Rating: - American Gangster
Based on a true story 'American Gangster' takes us on another gangster style journey, but made refreshing as not based around the Mob or Italian stereotypes.

Washington builds his trade upon exclusive access to a South East Asian source and links with the US military who assist with his shipments.
