Classics never betray you! I know the actuality is not so easy in fact, and I know this is entertainment, but I love this kind of show really. Everyone may be out of fashion nowadays but they are still cool to me.

Great movie. Eventhough it’s so over the top and some-what comical. When Ness’ team takes on bad guys in one scene. That you don’t expect the film to take such a violent and dark turn. When his team members start to be violently taken out.

Maybe if i watched it in the 90's i would have appreciated it a little more. The fact that it escaped me so long i think makes even my consumption biased. I thought it was too cheesy to truly appreciate. I think i've been spoiled by the rawness of Boardwalk Empire for movies set in this era.

Howard Hawks defined a great film as “three good scenes and no bad ones.” The Untouchables has one of the greatest scenes in the history of cinema, and not just because it’s patterned after the best known scene in Battleship Potemkin; this has actually become iconic in its own right.

Never stop fighting till the fight is done, here endeth the lesson.

As good a gangster movie that has ever been made as DePalma does justice to Mamet's electric script. The acting on show is right out of the top draw, the inevitable ease that DeNiro puts menace into Capone is quite impressive, wh More

Capone starring Tom Hardy is being released this week, so I decided to visit a classic from the late 80s that also features Al Capone (this time portrayed by Robert De Niro). One of my 2020's resolut More
