"In 1949
Los Angeles,
Mickey Cohen (
Sean Penn) wants to control all organized crime, arguing with local mobster
Jack Dragna (
Jon Polito) that they should not allow the East coast
Mafia to run the town.
Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) Detective Sergeant John "Sarge" O'Mara (
Josh Brolin) raids a Cohen brothel to save a woman, new to Hollywood. Chief
Bill Parker (
Nick Nolte) is impressed that O'Mara had knowingly raided a Cohen operation and is aware that O'Mara has
special operations background and training at
Camp X during World War II. He tasks O'Mara to wage guerrilla warfare against Cohen; selecting a small team to work with no badges and no LAPD support"
Bad to the bone! Literally this movie was so bad from its core, there were only a few salvageable moments in this whole movie. I didn't like Ryan Gosling's ascent or Navidad's appearance which wasn't done well at all. I really like this time in history Sean Penn had the best appearance and it was his scenes that were the best part of this movie. Adding Emma Stone was such a bad idea, she didn't help the film whatsoever.
They should have picked a better director as well because this one did not do his job at all. This film has more flaws than 30 Minutes or Less and that is saying something.
