In the middle of Gangster Squad there is a huge hint at a possible surprise to come later. But it doesn't. That about sums up this movie. You feel like you've seen all the parts before. There are no surprises.
The acting is fine, the plot is fine, the cinematography is fine. But it is all formulaic. Maybe if you have never seen any gangsters movies... ever... you might enjoy this.
I didn't hate it, but apart from the surprise that never happened, it is already fading from my memory.
Shame; this is a good cast that could have done something great.
