I think anyone who saw "Gangster Squad" can agree that it can't stand up to a classic.

Angles with Dirty Faces just seems like a porno movie.

White Heat is probably one of the three best gangsterfilms ever made. I love how it flawlessly intwines so many gangster/police-sub-genres in 1 film; it's part heist movie/part undercover-cop-flick/part prison-flick and a character study aswell. Cagney is mesmerizing.

A gangster film BETTER than 'Gangster Squad'? I doubt one exists: where else are you going to see Penn make an idiot of himself (other than the news or in interviews)? Or Gosling give a weird, self-conscious performances that says FU to studios trying to position him as a leading man? Or Will Beall desperately trying to out-Mamet Mamet? Or Rubs try to prove he's more than just the 'Zaombieland' guy?

I would include Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Doulos from 1962 as well.
