Kevin Costner’s The Untouchables Is Now Streaming, And It’s Still One Of The Best Movies (& Casts) Of His Entire Career

Kevin Costner’s 1987 historical crime drama The Untouchables is now streaming, and both the movie itself and its cast are still a highlight of the actor’s career. The Untouchables follows the true story of Elliott Ness (Kevin Costner) and his team of “untouchable” – in the sense they couldn’t be bribed – police officers as they try to take down notorious Chicago gangster Al Capone. Al Capone was a notorious bootlegger who illegally brought alcohol into the United States during Prohibition, and Ness eventually arrested him for tax evasion. The road to get there, however, was paved with blood, bullets, and more than a few bodies.

Now, The Untouchables is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video. Its new streaming home could mean that people who have never seen the movie before will finally get to experience one of Kevin Costner’s best movies, as well as one of the best casts he’s ever been part of. Those same viewers will also see that Costner is so much more than his most typical roles, and he’s capable of giving a compelling performance in much more than just Westerns and sports movies.
