Despite the familiar ground, Ralph Ziman manages to orchestrate an engrossing and energetic film full of memorable characters and a wicked soundtrack. Jul 16, 2010 | Rating: 3/5

Sadly things unwind and the movie loses power with covert special pleading for the wiseguy protagonist, who is supposed to be morally superior to obviously vindictive white cops or evil drug dealer rivals. Jul 8, 2010 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Writer-director Ralph Ziman strings it all together with slick competence, but given that leading man Rapulana Seiphemo does a persuasive line in moral ambiguity, it's disappointing that the proceedings too often default to glib shoot-'em-up. Jul 6, 2010 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The opening credits of Gangster's Paradise note that it was "inspired by real events." It would be more accurate to say that the film was inspired by Brian De Palma's Scarface and similar fare. Jun 11, 2010 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

The film captures the strife tearing the city apart, and how one man fought against the system and won in his own way, on his terms. Sep 12, 2017 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

Issues of race and social injustice add a little grit and texture to an otherwise overlong and over familiar gangster story. Jul 12, 2010 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Ultimately, like all the best gangster films, it is a story of people, not principles. Actions, not ideas. And it is very nearly a masterpiece. Jul 8, 2010 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The film pays its dues to the classics. Not only does it lovingly rip off a truck heist from Heat, but Lucky and his gang actually sit down and watch Heat for tips. Jul 8, 2010 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
