Public Enemies

I could tell it was stylized quite a bit (this is a Michael Mann work after all), but on the whole I thought it was great.

Outside of all the one-handed "stunt shooting" with machine guns (that in real life weigh 15-20 pounds), the biggest issue I had was with Baby Face Nelson. But I won't go into it since most here haven't seen it yet.

At the theater I went to (1927-vintage), a large group of mostly young people showed up in period attire. Some of them clearly went to great lengths to look right. That really made the evening!
