Review of Gangster Squad (2013) by Tom H — 07 Jul 2013
This flick has more bullets than frames. It desperately tries to fit in with the film noir genre, but never quite makes it. Reminded me of the old Westerns. When the bad guys shoot, it takes an entire clip until maybe somebody drops.
When the good guys do the same, one shot will blow out five. Oscillating between serious dialog and wild shoot-outs, this film cannot make up its mind of what it wants to be. Bottom line: any more noir and the screen goes black.
