2. Hoodlum movie review & film summary (1997) - Roger Ebert

Tijdens de Depressie van de jaren 30 stond New York in het teken van een heftige bendeoorlog met als inzet de wijk Harlem. De 'black Godfather' was Bumpy Johnson (intense rol van Fishburne) en zijn tegenstander de blanke Dutch Schultz (Roth). Duke baseerde zijn film op getuigenverslagen en kranten- en tijdschriftartikelen en produceerde een uiterst bloedig werk met veel gevoel voor historisch detail. Het ziet er prachtig uit en het acteerwerk varieert van goed tot geniaal waarbij Fishburne en Roth volop ruimte krijgen om hun gewelddadige personages neer te zetten. Een lange zit (130 minuten) maar de moeite waard. (VM/VPRO Gids)

ry as he might to be a likable heroic type, Laurence Fishburne has always conveyed the icy gloom of a man who has gazed into the abyss and come away with a withering sense of disgust. Fishburne's cold, lidless stare and the hard curl of his lips suggest that while contemplating the void, he whiffed a stench so foul it left him permanently on the brink of nausea.
