You are having trouble with the issue....

This issue is not with Dillinger being a gangster. He was. The claim was that Depp did not act like a 'gangster.' You see, that is called conclusion, and, in and of itself, means nothing. You mean he shit like a gangster?

The issue is how did Dillinger act that made him a gangster, and what did Depp not include in his performance that stripped from Dillinger what made him a gangster?

Depp shot guns. At people. He killed people. He robbed banks. He had babes. He ran from the law. There was no sugarcoating. So, what exactly did Depp not include in his performance that he should have to make him more of a 'gangster?' Oh, yea, he did not use the Edward G. Robinson 'gangster method' acting.

Further, do you consider the actor who played Baby Face Nelson to be a superior actor to Depp? BFN was certainly depicted in the film in a completely different light Dillinger.
