June 5, 2002
"He's good - who is he?" so say audiences watching the Brit newcomer playing Chaucer in A Knight's Tale and Russell Crowe's fantasy of an Oxford roommate in A Beautiful Mind. His name is Paul Bettany, and he is good. He's even better taking on the title role in Gangster No. 1, a potently in-your-face crime drama from first-time feature director Paul McGuigan. The movie has energy and danger and depraved wit. And it's all packed into Bettany's performance as the unnamed gangster in 1960s London

Paul Bettany gives a bust-out star performance in this tense, twisted low-rent jobbie about Brit hoods. Scads better than Scooby Doo. PETER TRAVERS
