I'm a huge fan of Johnny Depp. So naturally a few months back when I saw trailers for Public Enemies I knew I was going regardless of how awesome the trailers were...might I say the trailers were good.

Getting into the first movie was a little difficult for me. There were short scenes jumping around...

Bottom-Line: Intellect is in short supply throughout Public Enemies, but it is good entertainment nonetheless.

Directed and produced by Michael Mann Public Enemies chronicles the newly minted Federal Bureau of Investigation's (F.B.I.) battle to rein in the outlaws of the Great Depression period.  Special...

The most compelling reason to see this movie is the hot guys, namely Johnny Depp and Christian Bale.  I was unsure whether Johnny Depp could pull off playing John Dillinger as he was killed at 31 and Depp is currently 46.  However, Depp has such good bone structure and skin that with a little Hollywood makeup he really look 31, and makes Christian Bale look old in comparison when in reality Bale is much younger.
