Public Enemy #1?

Bank robbing can be a hell of an exciting scene in a flick. The first scene in the Dark Knight is a bank robbery that introduces you to an great antagonist. However, when you are talking about real bank robberies, they don't last long at all. Since this is the case, what seems like a bank robbing movie only has about 15 minutes of actual bank hold-up. Breaking out of jail seemed more interesting and lasted a little longer.

With that being said, anytime a flick is done on historic accounts, it is normally bound by such. The Titanic must sink, Christ must be nailed to the cross, and Pearl Harbor must be bombed. There are no real alternate endings and no real wiggle room for creative addition. So the story of John Dillinger and Melvin Purvis is an interesting one, making it interesting for the audience is a challenge.

The sets on this film were really well done. From the movies they actors watched, to the cars, to the guns, to the phones, to the clothing, to the mannerisms and jargon.... the details were very taken care of. It is easy to believe that there are in the late 20's early 30's and easy to get lost in the atmosphere.

The acting is second to none as Johnny Depp and Christian Bale nail there roles. The supporting cast was also done very well. I looked, but could find no acting flaws.

Overall, this movie is really well done... but since bank robberies and jail breaks don't take much time, the movie seems to drag on. So much was done to make this a great movie, but the historic nature of the flick really holds it back. This flick is an orgy out of a cherry pit (4 out of 5).

There have been some other flicks that I have not rated yet, and I would like to give a brief overview of those movies.

Transformers 2 wasn't a bad movie, and certainly wasn't a great movie either. Megan Fox can't act for shit, but nobody really cares. I am sure you can see why. The story was very elaborate and drawn out. The creativity in this flick counteract the previous one. Apparently, what they Megatron wanted in the first one really wasn't worth a damn. What a waste a time. This could have been the first movie of the series, probably would have shaved off 45 minutes of run time.

The CGI was really smooth as expected, the action wasn't bad, and the one-liners by the twin Autobots were hilarious. That saved this movie to keep it a threesome out of a cherry pit (3 out of 5).

Year One was probably the biggest waste of time ever. What I thought might be a recreation of a Chris Farley - David Spade chemistry, but I was sadly mistaken. My baby girl fell asleep during the flick and needed to be waken. I myself had a hard time staying awake. The story sucked, the acting sucked, the girls were good looking but had arm hair, the jokes were lame. Overall, this one is a masturbation session out of a cherry pit (1 out of 5).

The Proposal was a clever chick flick that was really well done. The acting was really good, especially with the presence of Betty White. The story was a little far fetched but the acting kept it believable. It was really well written and directed. If you are looking for some estrogen entertainment, this one is worth it. The Proposal is an orgy out of a cherry pit ( 4 out of 5).
