Chicago, a szesztilalom és a világválság Amerikájának zûrzavaros éveiben... Al Capone (Robert De Niro), az alvilág pápája kezében tartja az egész várost - korrupt zsaruk, ügyészek, bírók serege tesz meg mindent, hogy Al Capone érinthetetlen maradjon. Bár mindenki tisztában volt azzal, hogy a gyilkosságok, zsarolások és illegális italmérések terhelik Capone számláját, eddig soha senki nem tudott (és nem is akart) vádat emelni ellene. A törvény kezébõl minduntalan kisikló bûncézár lebuktatására végül különleges nyomozócsapat alakul: a ''megvesztegethetetlenek''. A vezetõjük a fiatal, ambiciózus szövetségi ügynök, Eliot Ness (Kevin Costner), aki Malone (Sean Connery), a minden hájjal megkent veterán ír zsaru segítségével csapdát állít a nagy 'cápának'.

Of all the "mobster films", I like this DePalm epic from the "right side" of the law the most. I'm impressed by fair cop Sean Connery and the insecure but always determined Kevin Costner... The creators managed to create a very suggestive atmosphere of 1930s Chicago, in which it was not very clear who the law was and who to enforce the law for. The story of the four incorruptibles who decide to go on a foolish crusade against Al Capone is filmed briskly, with time left to illustrate the characters and the relationships between them. Some brutal scenes are particularly impressive and the quote from Eisenstein is perfect... In short, a fine Hollywood drama that has everything. Personally, I don't like godfather glorification of mafia families; subconsciously I'm just on the side of Eliot Ness and Jim Malon.

The abundance of emotions and cinematic artistry that Brian De Palma put into The Untouchables often left me with my jaw hanging open. The action is clearly dominated by the breathtaking train station scene, Ennio Morricone's music gives the war on alcohol and the villains an incomparable aura, and the cream of the crop in the central star-studded team definitively gives the feeling that a gangster film like this could never be made today, which may be why I increasingly gravitate towards these golden classics. Although the prohibition mafia story is completely different from anything by Sergio Leone, Francis Ford Coppola, or Martin Scorsese, it has left its mark in golden letters. It may be thanks to the flawless second half, but even the first half, despite occasionally surprising pacing issues, is unforgettable in its own way because the palpable period atmosphere is amazing.

A top-notch gangster movie with excellent actors. I was almost surprised at Kevin Costner’s performance and I think that this was one of his best roles ever. De Palma played about with the camera as always and giving some scenes (for instance watching Malone in the house) a more interesting allure. An excellent watch that is almost as old as I am. :-)

An exhibition by De Palma, where he delights film fans with various references to famous works of the past (Battleship Potemkin and others). The biggest star is not the Oscar-winning Connery, but the secondary character of Al Capone, phenomenally played by Robert De Niro.

I liked Gangster Squad better because of the more modern approach, but this is also a very good gangster film that still entertains after a few years. I liked the cast, the excessive whirlwind of bloody and juicy scenes, the nice pace and the interesting story. 80%
