Johnny Depp’s charismatic lead performance can make you fall in love with a well-dressed bank robber and America’s most wanted.  This gangster flick had the right blend of action scenes, suspense and drama.  There were only enough tablespoons of bloody scenes to feel the realism of the movie and right amount of nervous tension without overly doing the sound effects.

John Dillinger: I was raised on a farm in Morrisville, Indiana. My mama ran out on us when I was three, my daddy beat the hell out of me cause he didn’t know no better way to raise me. I like baseball, movies, good clothes, fast cars, whiskey, and you… what else you need to know?

Billie Frechette: Why are you in such a hurry?

John Dillinger: Because when you’re looking at what I’m looking, you’d be in a hurry too.

John Dillinger: They ain’t tough enough, smart enough or fast enough. I can hit any bank I want, any time. They got to be at every bank, all the time.

John Dillinger: [nodding at money on a table] That’s your money, mister?
Bank Teller: [nervously] Yes.
John Dillinger: We’re here for the bank’s money, not yours. Put it away.

Melvin Purvis: What keeps you up nights, Mr. Dillinger?
John Dillinger: Coffee.

John Dillinger: We’re having too good a time today. We ain’t thinking about tomorrow.

John Dillinger: Well if it isn’t the man who shot Pretty-Boy Floyd. Good thing ’cause he sure wasn’t Whiz-Kid Floyd.

John Dillinger: [Approaching group of police officers] What’s the score?

[last lines]
Billie Frechette: They say you’re the man who shot him.
Charles Winstead: That’s right. One of ’em.
Billie Frechette: So why are you coming to see me? To see the damage you done?
Charles Winstead: No. I came here because he asked me to. When he went down, he said somethin’. I put my ear next to his mouth, and what I think what he said was this.
