it was OK, but not enough action

Rating: 5/10 (12 July 2010)

Johnny Depp is great in this as usual. He plays 1920s bank robber Johnny Dillinger. Most of the story is about Johnny and his gang robbing some banks and they get caught. He escapes and is still tracked by FBI agent, Melvin Purvis. There is also his in this, Billie. He basically gets followed again because he can't leave her only. The FBI eventually gets her for aiding and abetting, but Johnny gets away. He can't stay away and makes contact with an old female friend that is giving info to the FBI. So, he does get what's coming to him.
My main problem was most of the action was bank robbing or car chases. It wasn't very exciting and it needed something more considering it was well over 2 hours.
FINAL VERDICT: Definitely for all Depp fans; it was OK but I wouldn't go out of my way to see it.
