Review of The Public Enemy (1931) by Mike T — 02 Jun 2009
A tough, influential gangster film founded on simplistic morals. This film is an ideal showcase for James Cagney's iconic performance and presence, and he commands every scene he's in. Although some may argue that this picture is dated in many regards, it is still an engaging piece of cinema that manages to establish a great deal of development in its brisk running time.
