I really enjoyed this movie! You just sit back and take it all in. Not a whole lot of thinking to be done in this flick, and sometimes that's just refreshing. It's very period and I think a lot of people in this forum will enjoy it for that aspect alone.
I did too! There were so many great moments in this movie, and with these actors involved, it's hard to go wrong. If there are people hesitating about seeing this movie -- don't!I agree.
I really liked the jail break scene with Robert Patrick.
The characters are not wearing COLLAR BARS on there shirts. Its a small detail but worth a mention. I wonder what other small details were over looked?
Best regards.

A question for those who have seen this movie: does it reflect the historical fact that, at this time, both the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the L.A.P.D. were deeply corrupt? Historically, large elements of both law enforcement organizations were on the payroll of Jack Dragna, Benjamin Siegel and, later, Micky Cohen.
We saw it Saturday night. My problem was I just finished reading the book which told the true story. The movie went way over with the shootouts...but the scenery was excellent. Great hats & cars.
1961MJS...I thought the same thing about the brass and the bullet holes. The dual tommy gun scene was rediculous.
I had completely forgotten about this film. Was it even in theaters? We saw the DVD for sale this past weekend... may have to pick it up for the scenery!
