    Big fan of Depp and Bale. Looking forward to this even if the premise doesn't seem exceptionally thrilling.

    Looks kinda weird. I didn't like this style in the Miami Vice remake. It was ok in Collateral though.

    But yea, Depp/Bale will be fun to watch.

    Depp and Bale are now Whores who will do almost any movie for money. Overused, albeit talented. Bale was in back to back previews. Bad Form.

    THEY ARE GOOD BUT SINCE THEY ARE EVERYWHERE I MUST DISLIKE THEM!

    Oh, please. Both Bale movies look pretty damn nice. They're actors and good ones, I'd rather have good actors working many movies than good actors working only occasional movies, it gives me more to enjoy.

    This movie looks interesting, I'm usually a fan of "based on a true story" movies. Catch me if you can with Hanks/Leo was enjoyable, this reminds me of that but with guns, sounds good to me.

    Remember watching a preview of this when I went to go see X-Men Origins. Immediately though... "A must see, holy shit!"

    <3 Depp, and <3 Bale. Seeing them together in one film = priceless and MUST watch.

    In an interview, they asked if Depp would be playing the Riddler in a new Batman film. I think that could be pretty epic.

    Michael Mann movie. Usually takes me a few viewings to totally appreciate his work. I hated Heat when i first saw it, but now i realize all the little things that make it great. I'm sure this will be the same for me.

    Decent movie, but just a straight-forward history lesson. There's a reason they picked now to make a Dillinger movie, but apparently they forgot that somewhere before actually shooting it.

    the movie was ok. the script and the writing of the movie itself wasnt anything special. it felt like i was watching a made-for-tv movie on History Channel. The action was just terrible though, lol. You see men less than 20 yards away from each other shooting tommy guns for 10 min with no one getting hit the entire time. yeah... thats not boring. <_>

    to each his own. the acting from depp was great. he was really convincing. he's always been a good gangster/smuggler imo. Blow being one of my favorites.

    I thought it was a pretty good movie. Depp's done better, but also worse. I'd say it's worth seeing, but don't get your hopes up too high. Also, echo what Weeks said.

    ehhh it was ok i went to see it 2 days ago...

    the shootout scenes left much to be desired (that cabin scene?? wtf?? how did NOBODY get hit?? lol)

    it was semi-interesting though, it kept me watching even though the ending felt a bit dragged out... its worth a watch, but don't go in expecting the best movie of the year

    It was really good - I agree the cabin scene seemed a bit dragged out for what actually happened. They could've added a few more extras in and had them get shot just to make the scene feel more adequate. Oh well. Otherwise it was a great movie.

    I can't believe more people haven't posted in this thread, I thought the movie was amazing.
