Ending with his last words of the scene where he sounded like a kid that is mad because he is not respected, even tho he didn’t deserved that. A true gangster would have been understanding the situation real quick and would have come with something better than “I buy it, i own it” as he should have known that even in commerce you would be unable to buy 100 bottles of pepsi, mix it with fanta and then selling them as Pepsi. It’s just good logic that helps avoiding chaos, which every true gangster needs and should want to follow. That makes the difference between a Don and a mindless criminal.

When Frank smiles & says my man. Be careful.

When a violent, homicidal gangster calmly says ''Don't let me catch you doing this again'' after cracking a joke, consider yourself the luckiest man in the world.

An extremely legend of a film, that should be known even more, and receive more credits for its dynamics. Such an amazing storyline, characters, soundtrack and led by two legendary actors, Denzel Washington and Russel Crowe who brought so much emotion, and action to it. What makes the film even greater is the many lessons and lines that are brought up, and what's even greater is how it's based on a true story. Honestly, worth watching no matter what.

When Frank went all the way to Vietnam to buy his coke for the first time is by far the best scene in the movie! and of course the line, "my man!" when he done reasoning with you!

It's heroin not Coke he was dealing heroin

After watching this so many times I just realized that the conversation in the club both start and end with “my man” but it is totally different feeling and meaning

No one else could play this role better than Denzel. Just the reply "my man" is legendary.

Zel: where the Shelby at? Cop: Shelby's gone Frank(all calm) Knowing damn well he blew it up😂

1:50 "my man"

Best line in this clip was "bleep"

Frank was incredibly scary the whole entire movie

“Close it up, throw it back in the trunk. Everybody go home. Have some pumpkin pie, warm apple cider” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Gets me every time

Denzel constantly prodding him. “Where the Shelby at?” Even though he knows he’s in a bad spot here lol

Denzel, always a solid actor!! Watched his college speech. Good advisor too.

Waiting for that scene where he punches huey in the face and broke the windows glass.. but it got cut though

Same scene bro

Everyone always brags on Denzel’s performance and rightly so, but Josh Brolins work has always been top notch as well. I’m sure he learned a few things from Denzel on this movie. Just watch Sicario and you can see that DW style of commanding a scene.

This movie is a masterpiece... Love it 🙌🏼

One of a kind. This scene with the cops always gets me. Crooked cops don't play but Denzel puts everyone in their place. Ma man.

“I loved that car” “I Know”

My interpretation of Cuba throwing the glass and yelling is that he was just putting on a show so he doesn't look weak in front of his guests at the club. I also think Frank recognized that and didn't take it personally. That's my he just said "My man" and left. Frank knew he got the message and would comply.

I think Cuba was genuinely mad. He had shown a lot of restraint in simply agreeing to Frank’s request to change the name, but when Frank said “catch you” that implied he (Frank) was the boss and Cuba was doing something sneaky. I get why he got pissed enough to throw the glass. Frank was also testing him a bit with that authoritative language and so when Cuba barked back he (Frank) smiled because he knew their was still a “line” he should respect. In any case, great movie.

Cuba: "Your willing to die over a product name?" Denzel: "Someone is."

Frank's downfall was largely down to the people around him

The beeping got me crying 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is why Denzel is the Best Actor in Movie History. 🎥

“Or would you rather your house blows up next time” lmao that’s wild.

What an extraordinary performance by Denzel in this legendary film … In this scene sigma says a very important rule which is « if you about to fall down use your last bullet »

The movie American Gangster made Nicky Barnes look like a buffoon and Frank Lucas look like an intellectual. But in real life, Barnes was the well spoken and articulate one, while Lucas was the scratchy-voiced, functionally illiterate guy.

@Thunder Lightening I am trusting the testimony of people who were there like Pee Wee Kirkland and others who said Nicky and his team were stronger muscle wise than Frank Lucas.

When real power meets authority, everything is simplified.

Denzel is without doubt the best actor of the last 30 years, better than many other so called greats. When I mean to catch a little clip of him in some movie I always end up watching the whole damn movie, regardless of time of day 😂

consistently great, he's really found his stride with certain roles, but he's fallen in to the trap of being fairly narrow. For that reason alone, we couldn't say he was the best, consider, Will Smith, Jamie Fox, Leonardo Di Caprio, Brad Pit, Jonah Hill, Samuel L Jackson, John Travolta, Daniel Craig.... and I'm just getting started. All of them talente,d all of them with better range, but I'd agree in this niche, Denz is by far the best.
