Public Enemies
Starring:
Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Billy Crudup, Marion Cotillar
Director: Michael Mann
Genre: Crime, Drama
Rated: R
Michael Mann brings the story of John Dillinger to the big screen in Public Enemies set during the Great Depression in the Midwest.
Johnny Depp stars as Dillinger the Charismatic leader of a group of bank robbers in Chicago. It follows Dillinger as he robs banks, falls in love with Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard) and enjoys his notoriety all the while being chased by FBI agent Melvin Purvis (Christian Bale).
As seems to be the case with movies this summer Public Enemies is extremely long, Unfortunately for its length it is short on story, Outside of Dillinger and Billie you really are not given a compelling reason to care about this gang of criminals which include Baby Face Nelson ( Stephen Graham). Purvis uses the latest crime fighting techniques to hunt down Dillinger and for a while it is an amusing cat and mouse game. Depp is exemplary as Dillinger bringing keen a sense of Style, Charisma and Humor to the Character.
The film starts with a Jailbreak and quickly leads into a bank job, we never really get to know Dillingers motives as to why he is robbing banks, Or why he is considerate during the robberies with a sense of morals and ethics the rest of his crew does not possess. For the amount of screen time very little is surprisingly revealed. Michael Mann brings a slick style to the bank robberies and the sets for the 30’s are great. Unfortunately as with most stories that are based on historical events Dillinger’s demise was anticlimactic.
A very stylish crime drama with some great moments of humor (When Dillinger enters the Police Station that houses the Dillinger Task Force is fantastic). While Public Enemies is good it just can not get over the hump to be great.
