Overview
Delayed and recut in the wake of the Aurora theatre shooting on July 20th, Ruben Fleischer’s much anticipated, star-studded crime flick Gangster Squad finally hits the big screen.
In a post-war Los Angeles, prolific gangster Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) has become the most feared and respected figure in a shady and violent criminal underworld. Determined to halt his relentless rise to power, police chief Bill Parker (Nick Nolte) and his wife, Connie (Mireille Enos) recruit a team of crack detectives to take him down.
Calling themselves the Gangster Squad, Parker, Sergeant Wooker (Ryan Gosling) and detectives Harris (Anthony Mackie), Keeler (Giovanni Ribisis), Ramirez (Michael Pena) and Kennard (Robert Patrick) vow to stop Mickey Cohen, or die trying.
With filming wrapped in December 2011 the release of Gangster Squad has been a long time coming, and the controversy surrounding its trailer’s similarities to the tragic events in Colorado have only added to its anticipation. One to watch.
