I just read a review on IMDB from an early screening the other night and apparently it's flat out weak. Other than Josh Brolin the actors aren't cast well and the film felt like a generic mash-up of L.A. Confidential, The Untouchables and Dick Tracy. Too bad, it could have been badass. Initially I had high hopes for this one, but now I don't care. Well, it's directed by Ruben Fleischer, hardly up there with Scorsese, Mann, Tarantino... The trailer didn't even look promising. Thank God that Bryan Cranston chose Argo over this.

Totally forgot this movie existed. This is going to flop hard. Gosling and Stone are so miscast and out of place here.
