Scarface (1983): Al Pacino stars as Cuban émigré Tony Montana in this remake of the 1932 gangster classic. Failing to make it legitimately, Tony and his friend Manny Ray turn to a life of crime, building a successful drug empire in 1980s Miami. Carlito's Way: Al Pacino gives an electrifying performance as a former drug kingpin who is sprung from prison by his high-powered attorney. He stuns the New York underworld by vowing to go straight, but his plans are undermined by misguided loyalties and an outmoded code of honor. Casino: Robert De Niro, Sharon Stone, and Joe Pesci star in this gripping, fact-based tale of the Mob's glittering casino empire in 1973 Las Vegas, where ambition, passion and greed brought it all crashing down.

Public Enemies: Johnny Depp stars as the charismatic and elusive bank robber John Dillinger, marked by the FBI as America's first "Public Enemy Number One." Gangster Squad: It's 1949, and ruthless mob king Mickey Cohen has Los Angeles in his grip. It's enough to intimidate anyone…except for a small, secret crew of LAPD outsiders fighting for the soul of the city.

The Departed: Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Jack Nicholson star in this action-packed thriller set in Boston, where tensions between the police department and an Irish-American gang are primed to explode. GoodFellas: Academy Award®-winning director Martin Scorsese exposes the fascinating and violent underworld of New York's Mafia families through the life of insider Henry Hill as he rises from small-time thug to mobster in this searing, epic crime drama based on the chilling true-life bestseller Wiseguy by Nicholas Pileggi.
