Found these amongst and next to the regular (1disc) editions instore at the Bristol branch.
Billybargain.co.uk DVD search says that loads of places have these available around the £5 mark but ive checked them all and they are only the 1 disc version.
Next best price seems to be CDWOW for £11.99.
Awesome film and well worth a look!

sorted byRidley Scott's American Gangster is a brutal, slick, and stylish portrayal of real life cult figure and international drug smuggler Frank Lucas. With tangled webs, deceit, strong aggression, shady characters and sinister plans, American Gangster has the gritty and pleasurable nostalgia of classic gangster films such as The Godfather and Scarface.
Drug-kingpin Frank Lucas smuggles heroin into the US by hiding it with the bodies of soldiers killed during battle in Vietnam. By delivering a product that is far superior to his competitors, Lucas has rapidly established his status as Harlem's most innovative drug dealer. While Lucas delicately constructs his own criminal empire, Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe), one of the few honest detectives in a corrupt system, senses a sizeable shift within the hierarchy of the drug underworld and sets out to investigate this hitherto unknown power player that has come out of the shadows to dominate the drug trade. But with Detective Trupo (Josh Brolin), Roberts' crooked and jealous colleague, wanting to obstruct and ruin the integrity of his idealistic counterpart, Roberts is left with little option other than to take desperate measures to end Lucas' rule in Harlem.
Academy Award winning lead actors Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe both turn in exhilarating and exceptional performances. With an engrossing story, powerful dialogue, realistic violence, and sharp stylish scenes, American Gangster delivers a complete, memorable, finely made, and richly satisfying crime epic that can be savoured again and again.
the 2 disc sin city recut doesn't have a booklet, i think it's common now on steelbook editions
Question - do steelbook dvd's usually come with a booklet inside? I just unwrapped it and even though it has two clips on the inside of the case, there is no booklet included.
I know you hardly ever get a booklet inside regular dvd's anymore, but thought they would have made the steelbooks a bit more special!
Still an excellent price regardless, heat and rep given.
Im not sure to be honest, i bought mine as a present for my brother so will be keeping it sealed, last week i picked up a Gangster film Boxset containing five films within, it had the 3 disc version of american gangster and a cool booklet detailing the movie etc,
was your copy sealed or not?
Yep, mine was sealed. it's not a big deal that it doesn't have a booklet, just seems strange that they'd put clips on the inside and not put anything in there! :thinking:
Wonder if that's the reason they're reduced?
yeah but mine was factory sealed so i guess they just dont put them in,
