terrible
By mikey77 (2 reviews) from Glasgow , 06 Jul 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
This film never grabbed me from the first. I was waiting for something to happen, but everything was merely superficial. There was no real decent plot to follow, no change or interest in the characters, and the direction was useless and pointless.
I found the 30s theme interesting, and think they went to great length to bring the audience a 'realistic' feel of the 1930s, and of the depression; also, the style of direction initially caught my eye - however these, let's say, stylistic monouvres became the only thing of interest, and I continued to wonder - where is this film going?
However, it didn't go anywhere, and is another terrible indictment on the recent films coming out of hollywood. Do not rent this film if you are looking for a decent story, If you liked the untouchables, you might find this film interesting.
Terrible, what a waste.- Was this review helpful to you?

(58)Michael Mann
By gianino (631 reviews) from London , 10 Feb 2013Michael Mann is a recipe for a good movie even though he failed badly in Miami Vice. Quite impressive cast and very intriguing plot make Public Enemy a very good movie. Besides Stephen Dorff and Channin Tatum (who is not in this for long) are hooooot- Was this review helpful to you?

All in the potential....Boring
By Walsden_Mercers (5 reviews) from W. Yorkshire , 11 Nov 2012Such a shame. Mann has managed to take a fascinating, exciting period of our history and turn out a thoroughly bland film.
There is so much potential in the cast alone, Marion Cotillard alone can hold her head high. Depp is detached to the extreme just coming across as not trying in the role, Bale so so so one dimensional.
I'm afraid you need to look back in time to the Untouchables if you want a film about this period with a similar ensemble cast.- Was this review helpful to you?

Neither Depp or Bail could salvage this one
By Treflan (3 reviews) , 01 Nov 2012Well, what IS is there to say about this film... Waited for a while but only saw a couple of A grade actors playing with guns. No engagement, no plot, no point.- Was this review helpful to you?

Never made it to the end...
By a customer , 20 Oct 2012I was bored after 15 mins of nothing happening, so I turned it off..
The beginning didn't do anything for me, it didnt draw me into the movie to find out where it would go..
I am a massive Johnny Depp fan but even that didnt help the movie
Unless you like a slow pace film starting off, and have time to spare to wait for things to 'maybe' get good.. I wouldnt bother- Was this review helpful to you?
