You wanna know how to get Capone? They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. *That's* the *Chicago* way! And that's how you get Capone.-Jim Malone

This probably is one of the most exciting and most riveting mobster films I have seen for years since ?The Godfather?. There?s a whole dramatic reform in the life of Elliot Ness (Kevin Costner), a federal agent who in full vengeance and despair tried to capture Alphonse ?Al? Capo...( read more)

A weak attempt from Brian De Palma and not a great film at all. The cast looks great on paper, but almost no one gave a decent performance. Robert De Niro seemed to be the only one that put in any effort and actually played a great Al Capone. It is a forgettable film that has ve...( read more)

Brian DePalma is a master, and this is a really wonderful example. The Untouchables is a really great look into the era of the rise of gangsters in America. Fantastic acting on the parts of Sean Connery, Andy Garcia and Robert De Niro makes for a really great movie.

Excellent casting. Mise en scène remarquable. Musique incroyable qui colle parfaitement à l'action. Scènes d'action mémorables. Beauté des plans. Référence à Potemkin qui fait sourire. Un film EPIC.

A classic gangster film; an unforgettable legend. This film has the most absolutely perfect movie reference ever put to screen. Brilliant development and acting.

Historical Inaccuracy, dodgy accents and plagiarism didn't seem to bother anyone and it was a huge success. Personally, I believe its the most overrated gangster film of all time. The 'pram on the staircase' scene was a nice tribute to Sergei M. Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin t...( read more)

Ahh what can i say about the film that turned me on to mafia movies. the acting was top notch in this film as was the directing. De Niro does an amazing job as Capone, i still love the baseball scene. and the shootout with the baby carriage is top notch. the score from this film ...( read more)

It's really a bit of send-up of the events surrounding Capone and Eliot Ness all done in the name of heroism, but it's still a great film. Nasty at times (with an unforgettably intimidating Niro wielding a baseball bat in ways no man should during lunch), comedic at others (the t...( read more)

possibly one of the greatest musical scores ever, the untouchables is a brilliant look into crime and punishment. kevin costner is surprisingly good. sean connery and his incredibly quotable script also helps

Superb crime thriller with a great cast and brilliant direction. Ennio Morricone's score is the icing on the cake in creating an authentic 1920s Chicago feel.

Semi classic-De Niro is superb as Al Capone,Sean Connery excellent as a tough Irish Cop(with a Scottish acent lol)Costner is crap as usual.

This is a great film about Eliott Ness and his crew who bring down the famous gangster Al Capone. Great performances from Kevin Costner, Robert DeNiro, Sean Connery and Andy Garcia. The film is based off of a true story and shows the style and look of the times. The story is grea...( read more)

Pretty good, but do not think that (no offence to him) Sean Connery deserved the oscar he got for it.
Kevin Costner or Robert De Niro should have or even Andy Garcia. -

A pesar de ser un filme clásico esta película parece tener muchas carencias a pesar del gran reparto y de todo el ensamble de cosas alrededor de esta.
Las actuaciones son buenas pero hay puntos en que se vuelven exageradas y aveces malas; las escenas son difusas y parecieran ser ...( read more) -

Eliot Ness is a personal hero of mine. He couldn't be bought, he was all for upholding justice, he had principles. OK, his life outside of work isn't so inspiring but as an officer of the law, he was someone to look up to.
While this film takes a lot of dramatic license, if you l...( read more) -

One of the best cast in movie history in a... well... more of a comedy than anything else. Laughed more than most comedies since a lot of scenes are so horrible.
Awful score by Morricone (great main theme which doesn't fit any scene at all though just like the rest of the score).
