Depp and Bale are great together.

Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2012)

If you like period pieces, this movie is for you. It might not be 100% accurate, but with a great cast and tons of enjoyability, it will be worth a watching or two. Christan Bale is amazing as Purvis, and Johnny Deep has an amazing amount of charm as John Dillinger. Some of the other characters from Channing Tatum's tiny part to Marion Cotillard were good, but the movie was of course primarily about Dillinger. It stays to to the best parts of the story too, like Dillinger's escape from Holley's jail and the cabin shootout. I could see this being hard for people who aren't interested in history to watch, but the action might be able to capture their attention again. And the bluegrass music is to die for.
