Johnny Depp plays "cops and robbers"

Universal Pictures "Public Enemies" is an action-packed period thriller with Johnny Depp (above)at the top of the bill playing John Dillinger (shown below). If you're looking for action, this should do it for you: three bank robberies, two prison breaks and who knows how many shootouts."

Slated for July 1, 2009, "Public Enemies" gives Universal a big summer tentpole movie. But instead of the dumbed-down dreck that decorates most studio summer slates, "Public Enemies" has the opportunity to be a critical success as well. It also boasts a romantic storyline--"La Vie en Rose's" Marion Cotillard has a hefty role in the film as Depp's love interest--that could draw female moviegoers too. Sounds like great fun, huh???
