What are some great movies about undercover cops?

The Departed and Donnie Brasco come to my mind. Anything else that's worth a shot?

RUSH (1991). Great film!

I agree with most, if not all, of the above.
For a change why not try "The Narrow Margin"(1952). Gene Hackman starred in a pretty good 1990's remake but the 1952 B&W original is one of the best "B" movies ever made. The plot involves a protected witness being transported by train from Chicago with gangsters in hot pursuit. It has a classic film-noir feel and an ending twist. Great movie.

Cop Land
- underrated police corruption/internal affairs ensemble flick with a fantastic cast including De Nero and Keitel.

The Corruptor
- underrated cop drama thriller with internal affairs element with Wahlberg and Chow Yun Fat.

If to stand pat means to resist evil then, yes, neighbour, we wish to stand pat.

Copland. Very underrated film, Stallone’s best.
