Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Brian Tallerico (1,600) for HollywoodChicago.com (623) on 11 Jan 2013

I love Fleischer's Zombieland, think Ryan Gosling, Josh Brolin, & Emma Stone are among the most underrated actors alive and think Sean Penn…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By James Rocchi (1,075) for GeekNation (86) on 11 Jan 2013

Guns n' Poses in a cover-band version of 'The Untouchables,' a wax museum with a pulse…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Luke Y. Thompson (1,447) for The Robot's Voice (149) on 11 Jan 2013

If these movie cops were your local police, you'd want them strung up on charges and locked away…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 11 Jan 2013

Garish and bullet-riddled, it's a completely forgettable flick…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Mathew Dekinder (396) for Suburban Journals of St. Louis (395) on 11 Jan 2013

As you would expect, shootouts are had, jaws are socked, ultimatums are issued, Packards are exploded and somewhere Raymond Chandler rolls…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Erick Weber (123) for NECN (109) on 11 Jan 2013

It's the premium cast that redeems the project…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Derek Malcolm (772) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 11 Jan 2013

It's Los Angeles, 1949, and the clichés are flying like bullets…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Justin Craig (142) for FoxNews.com (142) on 11 Jan 2013

Somewhere in this hyper-stylized actioner are remnants of some previously-conceived film, a better movie that feels as if it has been methodically…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Colin Covert (1,936) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 11 Jan 2013

Despite a cast of gifted actors, lush 1940s production design and suave costumes, it's bereft of inspiration, plowing familiar terrain past…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Stephen Whitty (1,794) for Newark Star-Ledger (1,745) on 11 Jan 2013

Any resemblance to history here is restricted to some snazzy spectator shoes and cans of Schlitz beer…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Chris Sawin (379) for Examiner.com (1,617) on 11 Jan 2013

Gangster Squad is far from a masterpiece and its story structure and filmmaking techniques are riddled with bullet holes, but it's still better…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Kurt Loder (858) for Reason Online (497) on 11 Jan 2013

Due out last September, now turning up in the film-dump month of January. Where it seems right at home…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Radheyan Simonpillai (471) for AskMen.com (164) on 11 Jan 2013

The redundant violence, no matter how loud and brutal it can be, lacks both tension and imagination…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Peter Rainer (2,575) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 11 Jan 2013

Penn is always entertaining when he's playing characters drunk with depravity. Gangster Squad could use more of him…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Matt Looker (202) for TheShiznit.co.uk (506) on 11 Jan 2013

It's basically the movie adaptation of the trashy comic-book adaptation of The Untouchables…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Rich Cline (3,056) for Contactmusic.com (927) on 11 Jan 2013

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Rick Groen (1,350) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 11 Jan 2013

The irony is worth noting: Back when it was really 1949, Hollywood made noir with teeth; this is nougat with pretensions…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Willie Waffle (1,383) for WaffleMovies.com (1,380) on 11 Jan 2013

Gangster Squad is the antithesis of a great movie about 1940's Los Angeles…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Daniel M. Kimmel (1,403) for New England Movies Weekly (716) on 11 Jan 2013

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Connie Ogle (690) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 11 Jan 2013
