Ben Affleck goes to 1920s Florida to run rum and kick ass in a $90 million gangster film shot on Panavision. Beautiful.

An utterly pointless movie about a "good guy" gangster. Or something. Mostly it's a bunch of shooting and Affleck failing in every way.

Its certainly watchable if you can get past the corny accents(!) but there are def. some cliches (I wasn't keen on the female characters). Still, its not un-entertaining regardless. Its alright - not one I'd recommend you go out of your way i.e. pay much to see but its an ok watch, not a complete failure but its not great either. There are some good bits of dialogue and it paints the scene of criminality in America at the time of the prohibition era relatively well, so it could be worse.

The action is visceral, and I like the 1920s design, but there is hardly any momentum or coherent story.

Disclaimer that I didn't watch the whole movie, but need to pad out my lower tiers. The first 10mins of this were very cheesy/ham-fisted and I couldn't take the premise/characters seriously.

I'm always down for some Roaring Twenties Gangster Shit, and I suppose this delivered. But it always feels like a few abbreviated seasons of Notquite Boardwalk Empire. I liked the cast, the setting, and there's a few decent characters to be found; Fanning especially surprised me. But it's never very gripping, we're rushing through the contents (3 years of prison happens in-between scenes) and the climax fell flat. Competent, yet far from refreshing.

The film is okay. I mean it's not terrible by any stretch, but it doesn't have any spark or appeal. It's just an okay gangster film. It's probably my own expectation of the film though, as I expected more from a "Ben Affleck directed film". His previous work has all been very entertaining. This one just kind cruises along and again, whilst watchable, it's totally unmemorable.

Affleck's most assured and confident directorial effort to date is a sumptuous tribute to Cagney era gangster films; though the pacing occasionally slackens, and the screenplay is stuffed with too many characters, a fine cast highlighted by Fanning, Saldana and Cooper, makes this a smooth and enjoyable journey. Gunfight denouement falls a little flat.

I'll be honest, I see a lot of hate put on this movie, but its really not that bad. Sure its not a classic gangster movie, but even good gangster movies are few and far in between these days. It's a pretty good show, and an easy recommendation if you don't know what to watch one night. Cute story, nice acting, awesome direction, might have been better if it were the full cut.

Nearly a complete miss by Ben. Also, he just looked silly in that hat and his suit never fit him properly.

So yesterday I watched Live By Night. I'm trying really hard, but cannot remember anything positive worth mentioning about it. Screw you Ben Botox, you made me a dull boy, throwing two hours of my life away I will never get back.
