The Untouchables (1987)

In Prohibition-era Chicago, Treasury agent Eliot Ness (Kevin Costner) assembles a fearless squad—stone-faced Malone (Sean Connery), sharpshooter Wallace (Andy Garcia), and accountant Stone (Charles Martin Smith)—to topple mob kingpin Al Capone (Robert De Niro). From speakeasy raids to a train-station baby-carriage shootout, justice teeters on a razor’s edge.

Brian De Palma’s stylish gangster saga pulses with tension—Connery’s gruff mentor steals hearts with Oscar-winning grit, while De Niro’s gluttonous Capone wields a baseball bat like a scepter. The iconic Union Station sequence, scored by Ennio Morricone’s sweeping strings, blends Potemkin homage with heart-pounding suspense. Costner’s earnest resolve anchors the chaos, though the script leans on Hollywood sheen over history.

A timeless clash of good and evil, dripping with ‘80s flair and bravado. Unmissable mob magic.
