I finally saw it tonight. I actually thought it was kinda fun. Yeah, dramatic license when it came to Mickey Cohen and the real LAPD gangster squad, but I liked the location shots. I also liked the use of old postcards for the end credit sequence.

From what I heard, the movie was supposed to have come out last September but because of the Aurora, CO movie theater shooting, they pushed back the release date to January 11. Also, because of the Aurora shooting, they deleted a major sequence where there's a shootout inside Grauman's Chinese Theatre, and so they chose to re-shoot that scene in Chinatown.
