Public Enemies Starring Johnny Depp – Non-Spoiler

How many of you have been a public enemy before?

I’m not sure whether I have been one but at least I have a bunch of good friends to hang out with..I guess that explains all?

Public Enemies, starring Johnny Depp and the Dark Knight, I mean, Christian Bale, is all about trench coat, mafia-like robbers, FBI, and err, a bit of love story..

The movie is based on a true story from the point of view of FBI agent Melvin Purvis, regarding his attempts to stop crimes in the era of 1933, set in Chicago..

That’s where the movie starts, on how Agent Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale) tries to stop criminals like John Dillinger (Johnny Depp) and few other real-life high-profile criminals in the era of 1930′s..

It’s based on true story anyway, of course other characters are real-life as well..

The movie focuses on John Dillinger’s excellent bank robberies, escape from jails, and actually make a mockery on the US laws..

I must say it’s quite an awesome movie, if not the best..

Sorry that I might be a bit bias on this matter as I actually have preference on movies based on  true stories, what’s more if it offers real-life story of somewhat legendary bank robber..

Of course, due to much of these bank heists and robberies at that time being, it led to some developments in the US laws and enforcements..

In this movie you wouldn’t see much of the clown-ish side of Johnny Depp in his character Jack Sparrow from Pirates of The Caribbean..

He carries a much flamboyant egoistic character, which I had expect much from a so-called dangerous criminal who has created few urban legends in The States..

A bit usage of handy-cam creates a closer-to-the-scene kinda feeling in some of the scenes in the movie is pretty good..

It gets a bit draggy in the middle of the movie, nevertheless it’s still an enjoyable and good movie..

I would rate it 6.5/10..

If you have not, do watch the trailer of Public Enemies starring Johnny Depp and Christian Bale..

    Hey there! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog. Is it tough to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to begin. Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Appreciate it
