If you don't have a problem with watching scenes from the movie before you watch it take a look at the six brand new video clips from the upcoming summer blockbuster, “Public Enemies” which will be released in theaters on July 1, 2009.
Michael Mann's “Public Enemies” which stars Johnny Depp, Christian Bale and Marion Cotillard among the others is based on Brian Burrough's book “Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-34.″
The movie also stars Channing Tatum who plays outlaw Pretty Boy Floyd, Giovanni Ribisi as Alvin Karpis, Stephen Dorff as Homer Van Meter, Jason Clarke stars as John “Red” Hamilton, David Wenham as Pete Pierpont, Leelee Sobieski as Polly Hamilton, Emilie de Ravin as Anna Patzke, Branka Katic as Anna Sage and Billy Crudup as J. Edgar Hoover.

me likey SMOOCH at end of “Billie” clip! Le sigh!
Well, the film is not about Dillinger at all. It is a show-off where Depp et co can look bored rather than hard and contribute to a meaningless movie.
The Dillinger-story has been turned into a mob-drama, the rural aspects forgotten, a lot of un-called for ugliness applied and romantic aspects that could have saved the film were ignored. It made me feel slighty nauseated, and that I had wasted my time seeing it. MANN-DEPP-BALE=DISASTER.
