• Me being me, I can't resist a movie about 1920s-1930s gangsters. I love that era, and anything to do with the bank-robbing faces of then. I enjoyed this movie solely for that. I think I would've been happier if it hadn't been so choppy. I wish there was more backstory about John Dillinger -- where the movie began made me a little confused. Again, the movie as a whole just seemed choppy. John Dillinger really seemed (at least from this movie's point-of-view) to be the hero of the story... minus the fact that he didn't hesitate to save his hide whenever he found himself in a tight spot (i.e.; letting loose a hail of gunfire in the middle of a public street). The end was incredibly sad. I kept expecting him to find a way to keep ahead of the FBI, but he was never really free the second time he escaped prison.

• I was mostly impressed with the portrayal of the friends Poppy meets when she is sent to England. Those are the types of friends every teenage girl should be attempting to find. I read on IMDB that apparently ABC Family (the channel I watched this on) cut out a bunch of parts, which could potentially be why I felt the movie was confusing at certain parts. I found some of the movie was executed very nicely, but then it was ruined when they didn't commit to it and fell back on cheesy, "eye-roller" lines. Still, while it was a pretty standard story line, it redeemed itself slightly through its cuteness. All the English girls (except Harriet, of course) were adorable, and Emma Roberts was too.
