Here’s a movie that looks like it couldn’t possibly bomb at the box office. "Public Enemies," starring Johnny Depp as John Dillinger and Christian Bale as Melvin Purvis. How can you go wrong?!
Directed by Michael Mann (more bonus points), the movie follows the feds as they try to take down the notorious gangsters John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson (Stephen Graham) and Pretty Boy Floyd (Channing Tatum) during a booming crime wave in the 1930’s.
Also stars Billy Crudup as J. Edgar Hoover, Stephen Dorff as Homer Van Meter, and Stephen Lang as Charles Winstead. He played attorney David Abrams in one of my favorite Michael Mann TV shows, "Crime Story."
"Public Enemies" hits theaters July 1, 2009.
