Gangster Squad (2013)
Directed by Ruben Fleischer from an adapted screenplay by Will Beall, and based on the book Gangster Squad by Paul Lieberman. Watch a trailer for the film below.
Film Synopsis (from the studio): Los Angeles, 1949. Ruthless, Brooklyn-born mob king Mickey Cohen (Sean Penn) runs the show in this town, reaping the ill-gotten gains from the drugs, the guns, the prostitutes and — if he has his way — every wire bet placed west of Chicago. And he does it all with the protection of not only his own paid goons, but also the police and the politicians who are under his control. It's enough to intimidate even the bravest, street-hardened cop — except, perhaps, for the small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders led by Sgt. John O'Mara (Josh Brolin) and Jerry Wooters (Ryan Gosling), who come together to try to tear Cohen's world apart.
Running time: 113 minutes. Rating: Rated R for strong violence and language.
