GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Kidskycom It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

porkloin Good grief - nothing new here, and most of it is a lame effort at retracing the steps done by many an earlier movie. Okay then - "fighting the KKK" ha ha ha very funny, Ben; get a grip. As if....

sergelamarche Very good story, well done, well played. Better than average. Bandits are not homer-sexual in this. Romantic view far from reality, but good as a film.

seronjaa-797-313124 I thought it was just me, because I'm not much into gangsta movies, action and violence. But for a gangsta movie, this one was a lollipop version. Ben Affleck's character is incredibly boring in this movie. His voice and face doesn't change throughout the whole 2 endless hours. There's no real story, no real motives, you don't care for any of the characters and in the end you just hope everyone dies so the movie will finally be over. I usually have problems witch catching up in gangsta movies, because there are many characters, the movie pace is fast and so on. But even though I actually fell asleep a couple of times during this movie, I didn't really miss anything of the story and knew until the end everything that happened. Because nothing really happened! If you make such a slow movie, then at least invest some time in developing the characters, if not the story.

Reno Rangan Number four for the director Affleck after his other film won the Oscars four years ago. He has also written the screenplay and produced it. It was based on the book of the same name. The story of a World War I veteran turned notorious gangster. Escaping from the war, falling in love with a gangster's woman, a bank heist, prison time, the son of a police officer and his journey to the top of the criminal world after losing everything at one stage of his life. More like a revenge film, but the intention was not aggressive. Only the time and the life passage give one to him.From all his directional films, probably this could be the worst one. It had everything a gangster film needed like gun fights, car chase, revenge, romance, yet I felt lacked depth in its overall theme. Actors were not bad, the settings looked fine. The length of the film was a bit long, but the film offered nothing new. It looked like someone's biography or made it look like one. I think that's the point. Even the end part of the film extends, only to annoy us after two long hours patiently sat for it.The best part of the film, what I liked was the 1920s. The story about between two the World Wars, that too was about an internal affair like underworld activities looked nice on the screen. The cast and crew were best for the film, yet failed to impress us. Though it was not totally a bad film of the year, only it did not stand and deliver as it was promised. So, still it can be watched once if you prefer, but not guaranteed entertainment.6/10
