  1. Reel Critics: Crime doesn't pay for audience

    Director Ruben Fleischer served up a campy blood-fest in "Zombieland." Wisecracking shooters eliminated disposable members of the walking dead by the dozen. In "Gangster Squad," disposable gangsters line up to be shot to pieces by a more serious team of shooters: undercover L.A. cops.

    <strong>*1/2 (out of four)</strong>
    *1/2 (out of four) This true story of morally questionable, mid-20th century L.A. cops and their efforts to rid the city of organized crime and corruption contains so much intrigue, it’s a wonder no one’s done it before. Oops, they have....

  4. Movie gangsters so bad they're good

    One hundred and one years ago, D.W. Griffith gave us "The Musketeers of Pig Alley," often credited as the first gangster film, and once sound came in, nothing hooked movie audiences during the early 1930s more reliably than Edward G. Robinson or James Cagney doing harm to their rivals and, for a while, eluding the law while enjoying the spoils of their own private wars.

  5. 'Gangster Squad' a fusillade of bullets and cliches ★★

    A triumph of production design but a pretty dull kill-'em-up otherwise, the post-World War II-set "Gangster Squad" comes from the director of "Zombieland," Ruben Fleischer. It's clear Fleischer, who also made "30 Minutes or Less," hadn't worked through his "Zombieland" jones by the time he got to his latest film. I liked "Zombieland," which made a strong case for its brand of viscera and wisecracks. But "Gangster Squad" is a different sort of picture, or should be.

  8. 'Gangster Squad' lacks drama with familiarity

           Rogue cops carry out their brand of swift justice to bring down Mafia kingpin Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn).      Where have we seen this before? Only everywhere.      “Gangster Squad’s” plot is nothing more, as Cohen and his...

  9. Film review: 'Gangster Squad' is no 'Chinatown'

    It's hard to resist Los Angeles-based films noir -- "Chinatown," "Kiss Me Deadly," "The Big Sleep" being only a few of the best -- but "Gangster Squad" is a bit more resistible than most. Director Ruben Fleischer and screenwriter Will Beall have morphed Paul Lieberman's nonfiction book of the same name into something a good deal more fictional.
