Summary: American Gangster - The Complete Second Season
Comment: The DC sniper is not Gangster in any way shape or form. If there is a season three which I am hoping and waiting for, I would like to see REAL GANGSTERS like the real 50 Cent and others.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too good to miss!
Comment: Not only do you get a real look into the lives of mostly high profile drug dealers and those people and large communities (often metropolitan cities) affected by the drug dealers' actions, you also get an look at the corruption within the United States government, FBI, CIA, and other government divisions which is far too often kept under the radar by the mainstream media. It is very sad to know how corrupt the government is, how free speech within the United States media is just an illusion (you'll notice a reoccurring true life theme of how those journalists who exposed government corruption were always blackballed in their media careers and harassed by the government), AND have a close up into what some people would do to their own neighborhoods and families for money.
Not only do I highly recommend both the 1st and 2nd season DVDs but I would want every single American to view it. I WOULD REALLY URGE PARENTS TO VIEW THESE DVDs WITH THEIR CHILDREN (probably ages 13-17). These documentaries are that important!
In addition to being an excellent educational tool both DVDs are intense, thrilling, and easily kept the attention of myself and my friends. It is worth every penny of its price!
Customer Rating:
Summary: always compelling
Comment: I always watch this show on BET and all of the various storys and people are interesting and compelling,but the results are usually 3 choices: Dead, in Jail or in a Protection Program with hardly little to no money. but it is very educational and interesting.Ving Rhames does a Great job.
Customer Rating:
Summary: To Gangster to Jailbird
Comment: This dvd is very informative on black gangters never knew we had so many.Well anyway one thing I learn from looking at this dvd it show me you can make all the money have the best things in life and than one day get killed or throw in jail for life.There no glory being a ex gangster living ing in jail for the rest of your life.
