    I found this movie quite interesting for most of these actors. It gives storytelling to a crime, and it shines light on something that most rarely talk about. I thought the way that Mark Whalberg's character acts was very cool and I loved the character. It definitely had some holes, but the movie was satisfactory.

    The problem with this slapstick comedy is that the actual story is anything but. This gang were a violent and despicable bunch, which is why two of them were sentenced to death. I mean, it's entertaining and comical enough, but maybe it shouldn't be.

    This was genuinely top 3 movies for me. This is funny, motivational, and entertaining. This is definitely a must watch.

    It is traumatic but teaches a life lesson that crime doesn't pay but is sad that 2 men died at the end

    Having read a little bit about the true story, I think this movie is insensitive and cruel to the true victims. I can only say that I hope that the real individual who was tormented and tortured by this brutal gang wins in court in his lawsuit. His story was used without his permission and he was portrayed to be and unpleasant, crude and greedy man who deserved to be punished. He has not been compensated even though his story was used to make this movie. From what I've read of the actual criminals, there was nothing humorous or likeable about them. They are horrible, sadistic human beings. As for the movie alone, it just doesn't make sense. The personalities of the criminals don't match the crime. I couldn't finish it.

    This is Bay's best movie by far and the all of the negative reviews are from people with non-valid arguments that have a preexisting bias against him. This movie is a exaggerated representation/critique of the ideal American Dream; and the performances by the main three are awesome, specially Wahlberg's.

    This is a really entertaining movie which does get better with repeat viewings. In terms of perfromance this is the rocks best performance and him and the monk actor steal the show.
