Notes et avis

The editing and camera work is very inconsistent; some scenes have perfect muddy shadows and others have absolutely no color correction and the lighting is fuzzy and washes out everything. The shots go from huge crane swoops to handheld documentary style positions. Whoever was editing this movie ran out of time or didn't know how to adapt the use of different cameras together.

I was thoroughly impressed by Public Enemies. The film's portrayal of the 1930s era and the intense cat-and-mouse chase between John Dillinger and the FBI was thrilling. Johnny Depp's performance as Dillinger was captivating, and Michael Mann's direction was top-notch. It's a must-watch for fans of crime dramas and historical fiction
