All thing goes well in the first half of the movie, how wonderful, isn't it ? Being a gangster. Untill the day he gets involved with drugs, which leads his liffe in to different path..
This is the best gangster movie, which I've been told for several times before I watched it. You won't feel bored at any moment while watch this movie, and the actors are all talented as I heard one of the supporting role has won an award in Oscar. Don't miss it if you consider yourself as a movie buff.
