The Untouchables (1987) is a gripping and stylish crime drama directed by Brian De Palma, based on the real-life efforts to take down the infamous gangster Al Capone during Prohibition in the United States.

The film stands as a compelling examination of corruption, justice, and loyalty, set against the backdrop of 1930s Chicago—a city controlled by crime and plagued by prohibition-era bootlegging. With a powerful ensemble cast that includes Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, Andy García, Charles Martin Smith, and Robert De Niro, The Untouchables is a timeless tale of good versus evil, where the lines between law and order are often blurred.

Written by David Mamet, known for his sharp, often minimalist dialogue, The Untouchables weaves a narrative of ambition, courage, and moral complexity, all underpinned by the volatile clash between law enforcement and organized crime.
