johny Deep is John Dillinger, what Humphrey Bogart was in Casablanca

You know is strange there's a movie right, showing the same thing of today. What to a mean by that. The 30's the great depression, the prohibition years, were news are turning into tabloids, and were projected in theater's. But is not about that, famous action director, Michael Man come back for he's next shoot out film starring Johny Deep, and Christian Bale, playing the game of cat and mouse in public enemies, reviving the 30's in their own fashion:

John Dillinger(Johny Deep) is mouth talking, charismatic,lady's man, bank robber, knows many ways to escape prison. Living the fast lane pursuing everything that he ever wanted. With a gang at he side, he was unstoppable on every height he did. Turning him into the number one gangster of America. That all change When bureaucrat J. Edgar Hoover try to create the first bureau of investigation, declaring war against crime, were a certain marshal is giving the job to bringing justice to Dillinger. Agent Melvin Purvis( Christian Bale) following he's popular reputation, he form a team to follow any lead or clue where he could be. But when the untrained eye get the best of them the heat fall to agent Purvis, is time to call to the profession. Dillinger enjoy he life to the fullest, with a dame at he side Billie Frechette(Marion Cotillard), nothing could go wrong? Except friends dying every where, and some they don't know ya. Time change, crime change, becoming Public Enemy.

Between Johny and Christian going southie on for this role, ain't that bad bad. Following the same step of the 30's movies, with the wise acting to the same grim style that it have. first Deep charisma, fun enjoying persona,is the true entertainment. The man can very well be your date for the prom, with a similar act that he did on what eating Gilbert grape, but with a upgrade. Oscar winner Marion give the chemistry that really make the innocence of the film.Christian bale seriousness southie act, give the true suspense of the film, so does he team, with the determination that drove him to do he's job, but till is nothing out of the ordinary on this one.

The camera work is pretty much the same style of the old black n white news footage's that they show in the movie. I t have always been the signature tone that's Man have done on he's previous film, from collateral to Miami Vice. But the music, that's where he deserve much of the respect for, that really give you that vibe of the 1930's.

For the story it focus most on how Dillinger made he's escape, from talking the guard clothes, to fooling everyone that he had a gun(knowing that it was made of wood). To taking him to stardom, from just being capture. But also what made this film interesting the creation of the FBI. That Hoover struggle so much to form, trying to convince congress to do. But more importantly the method they used to interrogate, and find clues. From making deal with the crooks, to even pushing the limit of the mob. The action sequences are the best but ore when it came to the ambush of night,felt the same shoot out of the heat but retro looking, but what really was exaggerating was how much lead that baby face needed to go down, it felt like the guy on the arrow in the neck of kingdom of heaven. the scenery that most of the gun fight seem forgiving from the perspective of the crooks.

So if you know the way Michael Man make films, then there's nothing new to it, except for the acting. Cause most of the action sequences are really long and sometime, not so believable. But hey he have done great crime films, from heat to this one, cause the 1930's scenario was something that he really focus on especially for a film like this.
