Jeremy of We Got This Covered wrote, "Director Ruben Fleischer follows up two comedy films: Zombieland and 30 Minutes or Less with Gangster Squad, a cliché-ridden crime drama that borrows from every other title in the genre, while adding almost nothing to the mix, aside from the questionable decision to shoot the film digitally. Gangster Squad isn’t dragged down by its performances or its direction, but the script leaves it dead in the water before it’s even given a fighting chance."
with sean penn being the head mob like he did in mystic river would be great, more noteably is the untouchables like synopsis of the film. its a definite must watch.
Featuring several unnecessary CGI-enhanced slow-motion action sequences, a rudimentary plot and undeveloped characters, it’s hard to recommend Gangster Squad as anything more than an easy watch. It’s sadly yet another case of the trailer being more enjoyable than the actual film. An average film that could have been – and should have been, especially with the talent involved – so much more. You’d be better off watching The Untouchables (1987) or L.A. Confidential (1997) instead.
