Story


Gangster Squad is a 2013 Hollywood drama,crime film released on Jan 11, 2013. The film is directed by Ruben Fleischer, produced by Dan Lin under banner named Langley Park Productions.

The Gangster Squad, director Ruben Fleischer's star-studded organized crime film, is a high gloss foray into a gritty world, a cocktail of noir, '70s mob classics and modern day cop movies swirled in a sparkling whiskey glass.

Sean Penn plays Mickey Cohen, the transported east coast gangster who runs L.A., while Nolte plays Bill Parker, the cop charged with assembling the team to take him down. He taps John O'Mara, played by a square-jawed Josh Brolin, who then brings along Sgt. Jerry Wooters -- here seemingly the film's central character -- who is played by Ryan Gosling, Conway Keeler (Giovanni Ribisi) and Coleman Harris (Anthony Mackie) among others.

Emma Stone appears as Grace Faraday, Cohen's prized arm candy and the woman to whom Gosling's Wooters is dangerously attracted. Mireille Enos plays Brolin's wife, Connie O'Mara.

The film is set to hit theaters on October 19, 2012.

Gangster Squad is less a movie than a costume party run amok. Set in a late-’40s Los Angeles painted in cartoon colours rather than noir shadows, it is a hectic jumble of fedora..
