Slick and Good Looking TV-Movie that has some Style and Swagger with a Performance by Holiday Grainger as Bonnie with a Doll-Like Look. She Persuasively Captures Her Transformation from Glory Hound to Delusional Psychosis. Emile Hirsch as Clyde is Rather Bland and let's Bonnie Steal the Show.
The Supporting Characters are OK with Holly Hunter and William Hurt doing Yeoman Work. The Romanticism is Relentless with Much Bedroom Bouncing and Pointed Pauses for Hugs and Kisses.
The Movie Decides to Make the Depression-Era Gangsters Appear as Their Perfumed Newspaper Personalities. Going from Folk-Heroes to Cold Blooded Killers with the Public Taking the Cue from the Propagandized and Opportunist Newspaper Reports.
This Accounts for the Inaccuracies in the Film because the Newspaper Accounts were Mostly Inaccurate Exploitations Feeding the Public what They Wanted to Read. Here the Mini-Series Makers are Feeding the Public what They Want to See.
Overall, Mostly Above Average with a bit too Much Uninteresting Filler (premonitions and ballet dancing) that Drags this Down from Anything More Aspirational than Fluff.
Note...The (1967) Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway Movie is a very popular and critically acclaimed Flashpoint Film of its Era.
