"Public Enemies"

Let me start this review by saying, I am a girl, so when I saw the cover of this movie.... I stopped in my tracks and HAD to read what it was about. I mean Johnny Depp(Pirates of the Caribbean)? Christian Bale(The Dark Knight)? Channing Tatum("Stop-loss", and the "Step Up" movies)? It has to be good, simply for the cast of guys!!! Which, of course, the movie did not disappoint me.

This movie is rated "R" for gangster violence and some language. As a warning to all, if you are shy about blood, do not watch this movie. Shots are fired from guns and the wounds are realistic for a gun-shot.

The movie itself, is about the life of FBI Public Enemy Number 1, John Dillinger. The movie is amazing and I would watch it again. To my studies it is mostly very accurate. Watch the trailer here...

There are a few things that should have been done differently, of which I will not say for I am not a spoiler. I will say, the ending needs to speak more about what became of some very important characters.
