Summary: After a shoot-out kills five FBI agents in Kansas City the Bureau target John Dillinger as one of the men to hunt down. Waiting for him to break Federal law they sort out several other mobsters, while Dillinger's bank robbing exploits make him something of a folk hero. Escaping from jail he finds Pretty Boy Floyd and Baby Face Nelson have joined the gang and pretty soon he is Public Enemy Number One. Now the G-men really are after him. (imdb)

If only the story telling would be faster to give movie better flow this would be much better movie than Public Enemies.

Engaging, grimy and (oh, yes) violent story of Dillinger played by the would-be-legendary-if-the-world-was-a-fair-place Oates. If you had the misfortune of catching Michael Mann's limp-wristed "Public Enemies", do yourself a favor and watch this infinitely better, flat out more testicled version of the tale to see how it should be done.

This is just what the doctor ordered: it'll take that milque-toast taste of Michael Mann's "Public Enemies" right out of your mouth. Violent and relentless, this film features a magnetic performance by Oates in the title role, supported by many excellent actors, including Richard Dreyfuss as Baby Face Nelson and Cloris Leachman as the Lady in Red.

Violent is the world of John Milius. In this, his first film, he potrays the bloody life of John Dillinger, the celebrity criminal who lives without a code. He's played by Warren Oates, who almost manages to look handsome in a couple scenes. The film simultaneously mythologizes and deconstructs Dillinger, and seems confused as to where it stands on him.

Milius made an explosive directorial debut with this rip-roaring gangster film featuring Oates in his best starring role. As a jaunty John Dillinger, he has all the charisma of a Cagney or a Bogart.
