Very Short Review -- Public Enemies

Rating: 6/10 (30 July 2009)

Pros:
+ acting: Johnny Depp and Christian Bale are never boring.
+ art direction & styling: See the real 1930's!
+ story: who doesn't like a top gangster?
Cons:

story: slow, unmotivated development.

acting: cold, very unemotional

cinematography: raw visual look is sometimes plain ugly

action: bank robbery's and shootouts are boring. Not like Heat.

Overall: acceptable for art and stars, but boring on the emotional and story level. Go see American Gangster or Road to Perdition again instead.
Hope this quick review helps you!
