It was long. A little too long and drawn out. It's the same way I felt about pretty much all of Michael Mann's movies dating back to and with the exception of "Heat". I'm pretty impatient when it comes to watching stories unfold on the big screen.
The movie is shot entirely in HD. On a 150k Sony camera from what I have gathered but some of the scenes look like it could have come off of my Canon HG10. But the hand held movements add to the great action scenes.
Both Bale and Depp were great in this movie. It's basically a Depp vs Bale movie. I can see why the studio didn't push promoting Bale since most people are probably suffering Bale overload...especially after "Terminator Salvation" bombed. Bale has been cut from most of the promos for this movie but his screen time is right up there with Depp's.
This will definitely be a DVD buy for me. I feel like in this case the big screen didn't do it justice. I think I'll like it much more from the comfort and with the comforts of my own home.
If I had to give it a rating (with The Godfather 2 being a 10 and Heat being an 8) it would be a 6/10.
