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

This may be based on a true story, but the filmmakers never bother exploring the complexities of historical events, instead opting for a comic…

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

Treat this as a cartoonish action film that owes as much to the western as to the gangster movie, and just go along for the ride…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

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

It's the cinematic equivalent of Bon Jovi's You Give Love a Bad Name: You know in your heart it's a crappy song, and every wince-inducing line…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Adam Ross (121) for The Aristocrat (121) on 11 Jan 2013

it would seem so much was spent on waistcoats that no one could afford to go to Officeworks, as Gangster Squad's script - the foundation…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Lou Lumenick (2,103) for New York Post (6,650) on 11 Jan 2013

A cartoonish 1940s shoot-'em-up that's impossible to take seriously…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By David Edelstein (2,124) for New York Magazine (Vulture) (3,519) on 11 Jan 2013

The period thriller Gangster Squad plays like an untalented 12-year-old's imitation of Brian DePalma's The Untouchables…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Ethan Alter (997) for Television Without Pity (337) on 11 Jan 2013

The movie doesn't much build to a climax as accidentally stumble upon it on the way to the closing credits…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Robvanshow (1) on 11 Jan 2013

Writing about this movie, but avoiding spoilers, I will say that I'm baffled by the reviews stating it's mediocre or awful…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By De132 (1) on 11 Jan 2013

Great cinematography, but the film itself leaves a lot to be desired, more style less substance…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Dollis (30) on 11 Jan 2013

A pulpy action throwback that effortlessly achieves its goal to entertain thanks to a top-shelf cast, dazzling direction, and a fast-paced…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 10 Jan 2013

Penn's over-the-top tirades and bullying threats are still there - it's a wild and woolly performance that isn't always as menacing as perhaps…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By James Berardinelli (4,524) for ReelViews (4,523) on 10 Jan 2013

Gangster Squad provides a welcome burst of heat and color, even if those qualities are more illusory than real and subject to a fast fade…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Peter Bradshaw (3,667) for The Guardian (2,969) on 10 Jan 2013

For all the guns and gore, it's as breezy and uncritical as a tale from the True Detective magazine that the cops can't help reading…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Elizabeth Weitzman (1,905) for New York Daily News (5,623) on 10 Jan 2013

Instead of expanding their sights, Fleischer and Beall narrow them, into a repetitive and increasingly exhausting series of shootouts…

Review of Gangster Squad (2013)

By Phil Villarreal (1,289) for OK! Magazine (124) on 10 Jan 2013

Count me among those who bail. Gangster Squad may be a poor movie, but it's a top-a-the-heap gangsta pitcha…
