After building an empire with bootleg alcohol, legendary crime boss Al Capone rules Chicago with an iron fist. Though Prohibition Agent Eliot Ness attempts to take Capone down, even his best efforts fail due to widespread corruption within the Windy City’s police force. Recruiting an elite group of lawmen who won’t be swayed by bribes or fear, including Irish-American cop Jimmy Malone, Ness renews his determination to bring Capone to justice.
This is worth seeing for the cast and director alone. A really great crime drama! And Sean Connery deservedly won his oscar in the best actor in a supporting role for this movie, though, this movie is filled with great performances. I highly recommend you check it out! I really don’t have any problems with this movie. I’m not going to give it 10/10* but 8/10* seems fair.
