About this movie

Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town... that is until a crew of LAPD officers led by Sgt. John O'Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling) wage war on his empire.

Ratings and reviews

A film with Sean Penn wasted! This film is a period action film with zero substance! If you want the same period with action, drama, story and excellent acting, watch 'L.A. Confidential' instead! It's a million times better! :-)

Gangster movie which goes back to the era of goodfellas. One that will not disappoint the average audience. Well set backgrounds and slick action make this movie worth a watch

Films staring this actor has never really been for me until now with a good cast behind him and good direction overall. This movie shows how old school gangster movies can be bang up to date... seriously enjoyed it.
