Public Enemies
I want to start by saying i didn't have a clue about this movie until a girl that i work who loves Johnny Depp told me about it, so here is my thoughts on what i know of this movie.
First if you haven't seen the trailer here you go
Public Enemies Trailer
Here is the Synopsis IMDB.com
In the action-thriller Public Enemies, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Mann directs Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, and Academy AwardŽ winner Marion Cotillard in the incredible and true story of legendary Depression-era bank robber John Dillinger (Depp), the charismatic bank robber whose lightning raids made him the number one target of J. Edgar Hoover's fledgling FBI and its top agent, Melvin Purvis (Bale), and a folk hero to much of the downtrodden public. No one could stop Dillinger. No jail could hold him. His charm and audacious jailbreaks endeared him to almost everyone, from his girlfriend Billie Frechette (Cotillard), to an American public who had no sympathy for the banks that had plunged the country into the Depression. But while the adventures of Dillinger's gang (later including the sociopathic Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham)) thrilled many, Hoover (Billy Crudup) hit on the idea of exploiting the outlaw's capture as a way to elevate his Bureau of Investigation into the national police force that became the FBI. He made Dillinger America's first Public Enemy Number One and sent in Purvis, the dashing "Clark Gable of the FBI". However, Dillinger and his gang outwitted and outgunned Purvis' men in wild chases and shootouts. Only after importing a crew of Western ex-lawmen (newly baptized as agents), who were real gunfighters, and orchestrating epic betrayals, from the infamous "Lady in Red" to the Chicago crime boss Frank Nitti, were Purvis and the FBI able to close in on Dillinger.
Now i am a fan of Johnny Depp ever since 21 Jump Street an i bet i could name off pretty much all of his movies or just go over to imdb and print it out which ever way is faster for everyone. Here is the thing how many great movies does he have to make before he gets an oscar hopefully with this movie he wil get the nod. Just by the trailer this movie looks like it will be huge sucess.
What i can't wait to see is Christian Bale and Johnny Depp on screen together and how they play off each. This movie should be on everyone radar and will be one on the movies that i will be standing in lines to see this summer.
