Gangster No. 1 [2002]
Directed by: Paul McGuigan
Starring: Malcolm McDowell, Paul Bettany, David Thewlis, Saffron Burrows, and Jamie Foreman
Streamed on: Hulu
Based on a play by same name.
Power and ambition are two things that together can bring about multiple outcomes. Gangster No. 1, has this brilliantly unfold before our very eyes. Narrated by McDowell and easily addicting it's hard not to turn away as young No.55 soon finds out. The plot is set and all the pieces are in play for the throne. Who will claim it when the king is out of play? How much blood will fall for the throne?
My thoughts: Brilliant narrative. Visually alluring. I loved the plot and script. Well written and flawlessly executed. Can't believe this crime drama slipped from under my view. Two thumbs way up! Loved every minute of it.
Final Score: 9/10
