Gangster Squad Europe and America

The best thing about the film is that it captures the feeling of the 1940s very well.
"Gangster Legend" is an impressive B-rated movie.
The film has enough enthusiasm and color, although these qualities are a little unreal and too easy to fade.
Although there are many gun battles and bloody scenes, the film is just as legendary and irrelevant as the articles in the magazines that the police like.
Thanks to the excellent performance of the actors and the precise details of the times, the movie can barely be seen, but the cartoon style still makes the movie fail to convey any credible depth.
Sean Penn has not been so interesting, but the film itself is just an inconspicuous piece of the Los Angeles noir film.
The director's first film "Zombie Land" is a satire of genre films, and this film is like a zombification of gangster films
