Incredible gunfights, great acting

from Granby, CT
As is expected of Michael Mann, the gunfights were top notch with great sound effects and lots of fire. As someone who holds great interest in John Dillinger and 1930s gangsters, I must say Michael Mann's dedication to accurately portraying the Dillinger arsenal is exemplary. Michael Mann is a gun-nut's director.
The acting was great. The actor playing J Edgar Hoover really showed how Hoover would bypass moralities and anything else in order to catch his targets and gain respect among the government for his still-tiny Bureau... and how much of a jerk he was. Johnny Depp and Christian Bale are great in the movie.
However, the movie opens with the death of Pretty Boy Floyd - Floyd was killed 4 months AFTER the death of John Dillinger.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
