Gangster Squad
IMDB
First time viewed: Yes
Current Release: Yes
Watched With: Domini, Michael, Paul
Trashy but fun. If you want a serious gangster movie, watch L.A. Confidential, this however is a whole lot of pulpy silliness that was quite enjoyable. I don't really go in for gangster stuff but this wasn't taking itself very seriously so it was easy to go along with.
Ruben Fleischer assembled a pretty swanky cast and they all look like they're having fun. And it looks very pretty. Although there is something very disconcerting about that very digital wide shutter look on a period piece. It's not Public Enemies bad but it's close. I guess we should start getting used to it.
