I honestly preferred this over Public Enemies. The latter film felt a little too polished. This film has the right amount of grittiness.

Public Enemies sucked. Sure it had a bigger budget, but Johnny Depp playing John Dillinger is like Lenny Kravitz playing Muhammad Ali. Warren Oates was not only a great actor, but he was a special brand of badasss too maybe the most underrated screen actor if them all. Go watch Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia, Two Lane Blacktop and The Shooting for more Oates. Depp is ok in the right role, but he is not right in the role of Dillinger.

I agree - terrible film. A failed plagiarism of
Bonnie and Clyde
completely missing that film's superb production qualities. Much gunplay for the special effects crowd but lacking in artistry in that gunplay as
B&C
did so well.
A major problem with this film is its absence of A-list actors with genuine star quality. Fine as many of them were as character actors, they couldn't carry a major motion picture.

Not me. Warren Oates is Dillinger.
