Gangster Squad: Movie Review
Saturday, January 26, 2013Gangster Squad |
Gangster Squad was a Criminal, Action,
Drama, Romantic, Comedy film. “Criminal” because I have seen Criminal scenes,
Criminal Stuffs, it tackles about Criminals, killings etc. “Action” just like commonly
action movies showcase guns, stunts, in the movie I loved the Car action scenes
which was also quite humorous ones. “Dramatic” because I felt the Drama between
the Gangsters and their loved ones involved, I can feel how hard to be in a
family that has a member who does a police, military or simply job causing
death, how hard everyday to bid goodbye to your loved ones, with unsure
thoughts if they’re still gonna comeback alive, although I know its is really
honoring to see them sacrifice their lives for everybody. “Romantic” I can feel
the love lust here, as Ryan Gosling’s character was attached with the girl(Emma
Stone) of his foe leader(Sean Penn), this love situation may be one of the hardest.
Lastly “Comedy” my first impression of the movie was very serious and dark, but
later on as I’ve seen it, I’m gladly surprise meet numerous punge-lines and humorous
actions, the element of comedy balanced the seriousness and darkness of the
movie, because most of the scenes were night time.
I was fascinated how the movie
depicted Las Vegas back way 1950’s. Never depicted that way back then Las
Vegas, has this kind of Criminal Issues. It was amazing that the movie was
inspired by true story of LAPD officers and detectives forming a group
called the "Gangster Squad unit" who attempt to keep Los Angeles safe
from Mickey Cohen( was a gangster based in Los Angeles and part of the Jewish Mafia, and also had strong ties to the American Mafia from the
1930s through 1960s.) and his gang during the
1940s and '50s.
