10 Crime Movies Without a Single Flaw
Is there such a thing as a perfect crime? That’s debatable, but there is such a thing as a perfect crime movie. The crime drama has been a fan favorite among cinephiles for decades. From noir mystery thrillers to high-concept sci-fi action dramas, the evolution of the genre has produced some flawless films, ten of which we’re about to discuss.
The crime films on this list are considered some of the greatest of all time; in fact, they’re so good, they’re presented without flaws. These films represent the history of the genre, from early classics that set the tone for our obsession with crime movies to recent mysteries that have reinvigorated it today. While there are certainly more flawless crime flicks out there, these ten are some of the best of the best.
‘Dial M for Murder’ (1954)
No director has mastered suspense quite like Alfred Hitchcock. His resume is filled with iconic crime thrillers, so this list could be limited to his work. But in order to spread the wealth, we’re selecting one of the finest: Dial M for Murder. Based on the play by Frederick Knott, Dial M for Murder follows Tony Wendice (Ray Milland), a retired tennis player who plots the murder of his wealthy wife, Margot (Grace Kelly), to inherit her fortune upon discovering her affair with crime-fiction writer Mark Halliday (Robert Cummings). When his hired assassin, Charles Swann (Anthony Dawson), is killed by Margot in self-defense, Tony must improvise, framing her for the meticulously staged, premeditated murder.
A masterclass in suspense, Dial M for Murder subverts the traditional murder mystery to depict the perfect crime. Rather than present a standard whodunit, Hitchcock gives the audience the ultimate crime setup: they watch the sinister, calculated plot unfold, making it an inverted detective story. Through dynamic shots, including specific angles, tight framing, and a focus on tense actions, the visual storytelling is just as important as the action itself. Tony is presented as a smooth individual who evolves into the perfect anti-hero. You find his moral compass despicable, but you continue celebrating his brilliance, hoping he can get away with murder, in a manner of speaking.
‘Heat’ (1995)
Michael Mann gathered one of the finest ensembles of stars to play cops and robbers in the classic ’90s thriller, Heat. The film explores the psychological game of cat-and-mouse between an obsessive LAPD detective, Vincent Hanna (Al Pacino), and a ruthless, methodical career thief, Neil McCauley (Robert De Niro), while examining how their professional pursuits destroy their personal lives. Despite being on opposite sides of the law, Heat showcases that, while they are masters at their crafts, their obsession runs deeper than they could possibly imagine, making them two sides of the same coin.
Known for the infamous diner scene, Heat is a brilliant character-driven crime drama that balances philosophical depth with revolutionary action. Mann’s piece is a mesmerizing dissertation on the perception of morality between two definitive roles: detectives are meant to be good, and thieves are meant to be bad. Heat proves that the line might be more blurred than previously believed. McCaulley and Hanna have mutual respect for one another, realizing that they are simply mirror images, doomed by their respective destinies. Heat works because Pacino and De Niro are titans of the screen, having a wealth of history in the crime genre already.
‘Inception’ (2010)
Not every crime film has to be completely realistic; just ask Christopher Nolan. Inception is not only a brilliant heist thriller, but it’s also science fiction perfection. It follows Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio), a professional thief who extracts corporate secrets by infiltrating his target’s dreams. Desperate to clear his name and reunite with his children, he is tasked with the impossible: planting an idea into CEO Robert Fischer’s (Cillian Murphy) subconscious.
Inception blurs the line between reality and imagination in a high-stakes thriller. Nolan prioritizes in-camera, practical effects over CGI to give the dream sequences tangibility, immersing the viewers in the heist itself. Between the rotating hallway fight scene and the explosive Parisian street scene, Nolan makes everything feel extraordinarily real. Cinephiles have believed that the film operates as a metaphor for the filmmaking process—Cobb is the director, Ariadne (Elliot Page) is the writer, Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is the producer, Eames (Tom Hardy) is the actor, and Saito (Ken Watanabe) is the studio financier. If you follow that logic, it just makes Nolan a brighter visionary.
‘Knives Out’ (2010)
Rian Johnson not only reinvigorated Agatha Christie‘s style of crime stories, but crafted a lead character who could rival her greatest detective, Hercule Poirot: the character is Benoit Blanc, and the film is Knives Out. When wealthy crime novelist Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) dies under mysterious circumstances, eccentric detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is anonymously hired to investigate. Blanc quickly discovers that the author’s wildly dysfunctional, greedy family has countless motives to kill him for his inheritance. But who was it?
Knives Out balances tense drama with colorful camp to craft a story of blackmail, an elaborate scheme, and a web of lies reminiscent of a classic murder mystery. Johnson brilliantly subverts the genre’s tropes by taking a structural gamble and revealing the apparent killer early into the film. Only it’s a red herring, giving the audience a chance to play along and discover who the real murderer is in a thrilling, hilarious game of cat-and-mouse. The first Knives Out film is a strong vehicle to tackle themes of privilege, social class, and greed through sharp satire and extraordinary characters.
L.A. Confidential (1997)
Based on James Ellroy‘s 1990 novel, L.A. Confidential follows three very different Los Angeles detectives forced to set aside their rivalries to unravel a massive web of police corruption, organized crime, and Hollywood scandal following a brutal diner massacre. There’s Ed Exley (Guy Pearce), an ambitious, by-the-book politician and ladder-climber who initially informs on other officers to advance his career, but is driven by a deep, underlying need for justice. There’s Bud White (Russell Crowe), an intimidating, brutal enforcer who relies on his fists, with a soft spot for protecting women who are victims of abuse. And then there’s Jack Vincennes (Kevin Spacey), a slick, celebrity-chasing detective who feeds classified tips to a sleazy scandal magazine.
Directed by Curtis Hanson, L.A. Confidential condenses Ellroy’s sweeping novel into a tightly woven neo-noir thriller, perfectly blending gritty realism with captivating storytelling through a flawless ensemble who lift Ellroy’s tale with ease. L.A. Confidential is an unpredictable joyride with a visual vocabulary evocative of classic hardboiled films. Working as an homage yet with a contemporary feel, cinematographer Dante Spinotti juxtaposes the glamorous Hollywood of the ’50s with the stark, shadowy underbelly of the city’s crime and corruption. Its unsettling authenticity presents the drama as an uncomfortable reality, leaving you eager to reach its stunning conclusion.
‘Pulp Fiction’ (1994)
Perhaps sans Scarface, no other crime movie has ingrained itself in pop culture quite like Pulp Fiction. Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, the crime film weaves together intersecting storylines: there are Los Angeles mob hitmen, Vincent Vega (John Travolta) and Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson), who are tasked with retrieving a mysterious briefcase for their boss, Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames). Boxer Butch Coolidge (Bruce Willis) is paid by Marsellus to lose a match, only to double-cross him. The mob boss’s wife, Mia (Uma Thurman), is escorted out for dinner by Vincent, only for an accidental overdose to lead to a chaotic turn. And the diner bandits, Pumpkin (Tim Roth) and Honey Bunny (Amanda Plummer), who decide to stage an armed robbery.
Moviegoers often like easy stories; Pulp Fiction is not. The radical non-linear storytelling allows Tarantino to allow the various stories to ruminate as they ultimately converge, forcing the audience to pay attention as the plot’s randomness and bizarre coincidences transform into a brilliantly constructed narrative puzzle. Tarantino leaves certain elements, such as the glowing MacGuffin briefcase, entirely open to viewer interpretation, cementing their lasting mystique. The characters are not cookie-cutter, but deeply flawed yet undeniably human, with moral compasses that often don’t align. Pulp Fiction also boasts one of the greatest film soundtracks of the decade, which plays a massive part in the storytelling.
‘The Departed’ (2006)
Thanks to The Departed, we can’t help but think of Martin Scorsese’s hit film when you hear “I’m Shipping Up to Boston.” And then all you can think of is the barrage of Boston accents. The Departed follows a tense cat-and-mouse game between two moles: Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio), an undercover cop embedded in a ruthless Irish mob, and Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon), a mobster embedded deep within the Boston police force. Both the police and the mob realize they have a rat in their midst. As Billy works to figure out who is leaking police secrets, the mob tasks Colin with identifying the undercover informant.
A brilliant example of tension from top to bottom, The Departed explores themes of corruption, identity, and loyalty, showing the devastating human cost of maintaining a double life using a cast of Hollywood heavyweights. Scorsese uses the dual narratives to make the action feel like a ticking time bomb where only one side can prevail. Writer William Monahan ensures that the Boston roots are inherently infused into the script. Though a remake of the 2002 Hong Kong film Infernal Affairs, the film stands proudly on its own, earning its identity.
‘The Godfather Part II’ (1974)
The Godfather was a groundbreaking film, but everyone knows that The Godfather Part II is even stronger. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, loosely based on the 1969 novel by Mario Puzo, the film follows two parallel dramas to contrast the ruthless moral decline of Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) in the late 1950s with the early life and rise of his father, Vito Corleone (Robert De Niro), in the early 1900s. The primary timeline follows Michael as he attempts to expand his crime syndicate into Las Vegas, Hollywood, and pre-revolution Cuba as he battles betrayals, congressional hearings, and assassination attempts. The prequel sequences trace the life of a young Vito from his escape from Sicily to his rise to power, culminating in revenge in Sicily.
The Godfather Part II is an example of structural brilliance. The storytelling is never contrived, as each scene interacts with the next, weaving the perfect tapestry of two tragic figures. De Niro’s Oscar-winning performance proved just how much depth the character still had left following Marlon Brando’s take in the original. Pacino built upon his sensational performance, shifting from a reluctant heir to a ruthless, isolated, and chilling patriarch. Rather than revisiting the same themes as its predecessor, The Godfather Part II focuses on internal deception, betrayal within the family, and the aftermath of the pursuit of the American Dream.
‘The Sting’ (1973)
One of the greatest crime capers is none other than The Sting. From a screenplay by David S. Ward, the film is inspired by real-life cons perpetrated by brothers Fred and Charley Gondorff. Directed by George Roy Hill, the 1936-set film follows two grifters—small-time con man Johnny Hooker (Robert Redford) and seasoned pro Henry Gondorff (Paul Newman)—who team up to exact revenge on a ruthless mob boss, Doyle Lonnegan (Robert Shaw), after he murders their partner, Luther Coleman (Robert Earl Jones).
Renowned for its numerous twists and turns and its Academy Award-winning legacy, The Sting features quite a strong, airtight script. The story ultimately becomes a con on the audience itself as Ward carefully withholds information to deliver one of cinema’s greatest and most satisfying plot twists. But that payoff could not have been achieved had it not been for the pure magical chemistry seeping out of Redford and Newman. Their charisma is simply unmatched, making them one of the strongest duos in Hollywood. There may have been a sequel, but nothing compares to the original.
‘The Usual Suspects’ (1995)
Many try to hyperbolize the weight of a shocking twist, but in a time before spoilers could go viral, no twist shocked the world quite like that of The Usual Suspects. Directed by Bryan Singer and written by Christopher McQuarrie, it has cemented itself at the peak of crime thrillers. Following the aftermath of a deadly, explosive shootout on a docked ship in San Pedro harbor, the police are left with only one physically disabled survivor: a small-time con man, Roger “Verbal” Kint (Kevin Spacey). He’s interrogated by U.S. Customs Agent Dave Kujan (Chazz Palminteri) and recounts a convoluted story detailing how he and four other high-profile criminals came together under a legendary, ruthless, and nearly mythical crime lord named Keyser Söze.
The Usual Suspects is an example of the unreliable narrator device executed perfectly by exploring the story through Verbal’s perspective until he walks out of the interrogation room, and your jaw is left on the floor. Through meticulous foreshadowing and plotting, the intricate mystery actually rewards multiple viewings. The film is less about the crime itself and more about the psychological battle of wits between Verbal and Kujan. Spacey may have won an Oscar for his part, but the entire ensemble made the film as iconic as it has become.

Taylor Frankie Paul agreed to take a sobriety test in an attempt to resolve her ongoing custody dispute with ex-husband Tate Paul.
Court documents obtained by Us Weekly on July 2 outline a plan for Taylor, 32, to resume “unsupervised parent time” with her and Tate’s two children after Tate recently sought to restructure their custody agreement. (Taylor and Tate share daughter Indy, 8, and son Ocean, 6. The reality star also shares son Ever, 2, with ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen.)
On Tuesday, June 30, Tate filed a request for a temporary restraining order in a Utah court to change the terms of his and Taylor’s divorce and custody agreement. He submitted text messages and calls as evidence that Taylor recently checked into a rehab center without telling him. (Us reported on July 1 that Taylor voluntarily entered a rehab facility for a short stay and has since left.)
Tate’s request was denied by the court on Wednesday, July 1, because more information was needed. (Tate resubmitted an amended request the following day.)
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul made rare comments about her relationship with ex-husband Tate Paul after their divorce. Taylor and Tate got married in 2016 and expanded their family twice before being involved in a “soft swinging” sex scandal. The controversy involved Taylor and Tate hooking up with couples — […]
“As Tate himself recognizes, many of his supporting allegations are based upon inadmissible hearsay, without any corroborating evidence,” court documents from July 1 read. “Many of the concerns, like the children not doing well in school and expressing sadness will require ongoing attention not remedied with an emergency order changing custody.”
The filing continued, “The court acknowledges that what he is allegedly hearing can create anxiety, but contrary to the claim that the children are in immediate danger, Taylor proffers that Tate left the children with her from June 11 through the 17, 2026, while he went to Iceland. The court cannot find an immediate and irreparable harm as contemplated by Rule 65A, and the motion is denied.”
These new court rulings from a Utah judge addressed Tate’s assertion that “recent events” caused the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) to look into the welfare of his and Taylor’s children.
“Not only is this hearsay, the court needs some idea as to when and what happened and what steps DCFS has taken,” the filing read. “The only allegations are that ‘DCFS communications made the emergency nature of the risk clear.’ This is a conclusion. The court needs facts as to what supports the conclusion that there is an emergency.”
Tate’s affidavit claimed that he “learned” from a family member that Taylor recently had a voluntary stay in rehab.

“Tate asks the court to consider the pattern of behavior over several years, arguing that the pattern is about to explode,” a Utah judge responded. “He is very concerned about Taylor’s admission to the Alpine Recovery Lodge, and Taylor’s allegedly lying about the reason for the stay.”
His affidavit also indicated that the production teams working with Taylor have “had it” with her. (Mormon Wives producer Jeff Jensen said in May that he was “very hopeful” that she’d resume filming on the show soon following a break in season 5 production.)
“There are many reasons for a production team to become frustrated with the talent. Foundation and details are lacking,” the judge wrote.
The court acknowledged that Taylor “made two offers” in an attempt to resolve Tate’s concerns over “Taylor’s admission to the Alpine Recovery Lodge, and [her] allegedly lying about the reason for the stay.”
Taylor agreed to share her treatment records with the DCFS and offered to take a drug test. (Taylor initially asked for Tate to take a drug test as well but the judge found no cause to “order Tate to take a drug test.”)
The court accepted Taylor’s proposal, provided that the DCFS “wishes to review her treatment records” and that she submit to a “15 panel hair or nail test” as well as a “Peth test for alcohol.”

“If it is negative, Tate shall reimburse her. … She must take her prescriptions with her and have a doctor verify that the levels in her system are consistent with her prescribed dosage,” the ruling read.
The results of Taylor’s sobriety tests will be subject to “a strict protective order.”
“Until such time as the results have been issued, Taylor’s parent time shall be supervised. It is in both parties’ best interests that this supervision be professional so that there is an independent third party observing the interactions between mother and child,” a judge ruled.
However, the judge added, “If there is a positive test for any unprescribed drugs or alcohol or a determination that the levels in Taylor’s system are in excess of any prescribed drugs, Taylor’s parent time shall continue to be supervised … If the results are negative, Taylor will be restored to her unsupervised parent time.”
Us has reached out to Taylor’s representatives for comment.
Following the court’s initial denial of Tate’s request for a restraining order, Taylor wrote via her Instagram Story on Friday, July 3, that she’d spent the day “crying and fighting for my 2 older children.”
“[The kids] had returned yesterday after being withheld and they were expressing how excited they were to spend this year with me doing fireworks,” she wrote “Their dad even told me we could EXTEND it to Monday so I relayed them the exciting news just for him to take it back? It was lies to them and my gut was wrenching to witness them cry, confused and asking why…”
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul’s relationship timeline with Dakota Mortensen isn’t easy to pin down after numerous breakups — but how long were they actually together in between their public splits? Taylor and Dakota started dating before the show premiered on Hulu in September 2024. Dakota was Taylor’s first public […]
Taylor subsequently defended her decision to attend rehab, insisting that she wanted to “clear up any rumors.”
“I knew that I was in a spot to take a step back and be like, ‘OK, we need to reset,’” Paul said. “But facilities are not for just substance. … There are a list of reasons why people go into that. Number one priority was just a reset for my mental health, and to get away, decompress, whether it’s one day, whether it’s seven, whether it’s 30. I willingly did that.”
The Mormon Wives star clapped back at those who “judged” her for seeking treatment, saying, “It kind of bums me out that [it was] kind of weaponized against me, actually doing the right thing of noticing I needed extra help, and whatever that may be.”
“I ended up finding a really good antidepressant that has been working for me,” she continued. “I will share the meds eventually, however, I like to trial and error before I talk about them because it takes a while to set in, and I would hate to be recommending something that I don’t even like myself.”
Her legal battle with Tate comes amid her ongoing conflict with ex-boyfriend Mortensen. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 5 production was suspended in March when Utah’s Draper City Police Department investigated domestic violence allegations involving both Taylor and Morstenson. Prosecutors chose not to pursue criminal charges. (ABC also pulled Taylor’s season of The Bachelorette from its schedule at the time.)
Both filed restraining orders against each other, with a judge giving Mortensen temporary custody of Ever in March. A judge later lifted Taylor’s supervised visitation with Ever, though she and Mortensen were ordered to stay away 100 feet from each other for a period of three years. (Taylor and Mortensen are scheduled to appear in court again on Wednesday, July 8.)

Natural disasters force 3 “View” cohost absences, producer ‘begged’ Joy Behar to fill in: ‘Dropping like flies’
:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(jpeg)/Joy-Behar-Brian-Teta-the-View-070626-ced63b7bdc8447ec9019177f59c52dde.jpg)
“Brian [Teta] begged me to come in. Begged me on his knees where he belongs,” Behar said on the air amid three cohost absences.
Steven “Steve” McBee Sr. made his first appearance on The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys after being MIA for all of season 3 and prior to serving his jail sentence.
During the Monday, July 6, episode of the Bravo series, Steve’s third son, Cole McBee, prepared to propose to longtime girlfriend Kacie Adkison. When the big moment came, Steve, 53, surprised fans when he was seen in the room with his entire family to witness the surprise proposal, which took place in November 2025 — one month before Steve reported to prison.
Fans spotted Steve in the crowd among his other sons, Steven McBee Jr., Jesse McBee and Brayden McBee, as well as his ex-wife, Kristi McBee, who all watched the magical moment from a room that overlooked a romantic gazebo.
At one point, viewers saw Steve holding his granddaughter Summer, whom Jesse shares with Alli McBee.
After the proposal — and Kacie’s enthusiastic“yes” — the happy couple reunited with their loved ones, at which point Steve was seen cheering the engaged couple alongside friends and family.
He was then spotted coming over to see his other granddaughter Blair, whom Cole, 26, and Kacie welcomed in December 2024, and enjoying the moment.
“Having all of our family and friends here, especially my dad is the best thing ever,” Cole told the cameras after he popped the question. “Life will really be changing a lot when my dad goes away and I just wanted to propose while he was still here and can enjoy this with everybody.”

Steve’s cameo was a rare sighting for fans, who last saw the McBee Farm & Cattle ranch founder during season 2 when he attended Jesse and Alli’s wedding. (The couple tied the knot in October 2024 and the episode aired in September 2025.)
Steve was previously a main character on McBee Dynasty during season 1, but after a major deal with his car washes fell through, he temporarily left the ranch.
“We’re on our own. Dad’s leaving. All he said is, he has no idea when he’s going to be back,” Steven told his brothers during the March 2024 episode. “He said he’s not in the right mental state to be running this farm.”
Steve continued to live his life off camera during most of season 2 as eldest son Steven, 33, took over as CEO of the family business. Behind the scenes, Steve was facing legal drama as he and the farm were under investigation.
In November 2024, Steve pleaded guilty to a multimillion-dollar fraud scam using federal crop insurance. The rancher was charged with one count of federal crop insurance fraud after allegedly receiving insurance benefits based on false totals from the family’s corn and soybean crops in 2018. Steve was also accused of fraud in 2019 and 2020.
Steve was sentenced in October 2025 to two years in prison with an additional two years of supervised release. He was ordered to pay $4,022,124 in restitution and to self-surrender on December 1, 2025, to begin his prison term.
While Steve didn’t appear on the season 3 premiere of the McBee Dynasty in June, fans did learn his fate as Steve’s children attended his sentencing and spoke about it on camera.
During the premiere, fans learned that in addition to the $4 million in restitution he owed, Steve was ordered to pay $3 million in fines, which the family was not expecting.
“It’s the worst feeling I’ve ever felt. I don’t know where the $7 million is going to come from,” Cole told the cameras.
Steven also commented on the bombshell, saying, “It’s the damn monetary amount that I’m very concerned [about]. December 1? That gives us what, six weeks [with him].”
The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys airs on Bravo Mondays at 9 p.m. ET.
Steven “Steve” McBee Sr. was thrust into the limelight during season 1 of The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys — but soon his legal woes were making headlines.
Fans met Steve and his four sons, Steven McBee Jr., Jesse McBee, Cole McBee and Brayden McBee, during the first season of the reality show in 2024 as they took viewers inside their lives running McBee Farm & Cattle in Missouri. Once the cameras stopped rolling, tragedy struck the family after Steve pleaded guilty in November 2024 for his involvement in a multimillion-dollar fraud scam using federal crop insurance.
During season 2 of the Bravo series, Steven took over the farm and slowly let his brothers in on their big secret: their father was under FBI investigation. In October 2025, Steve was sentenced to two years in prison.
When the cameras picked up for season 3, it was the day before Steve’s sentencing — and two months ahead of the date he surrendered to prison. Steve appeared on camera during a July 2026 episode, which filmed one month before he began his jail sentence in December 2025.

When Did Fans Last See Steve on ‘The McBee Dynasty’?
During the season 1 finale, which aired in March 2024, CFO Galyna Saltkovska told Steve that she failed to secure a deal with investors to expand their carwash business. The pair’s romantic relationship also reached a breaking point that led Steve to drink too much at their annual post-harvest farming celebration.
When the episode came to an end, Steven informed his brothers, “We’re on our own. Dad’s leaving. All he said is, he has no idea when he’s going to be back. He said he’s not in the right mental state to be running this farm.”
Steve was noticeably absent the majority of the Bravo series’ second season, which premiered in June 2025. He made his first appearance of the season during an August 2025 episode when he met his sons in Nashville. Steve was also present for the season finale, which documented son Jesse’s wedding.
During the season 3 premiere, which aired in June 2026, Steve’s sentencing in his fraud case was a major story line. While he didn’t appear on camera, his sons all reacted to his two-year sentencing, which was handed down in October 2025. He was, however, part of Cole and Kacie Adkison’s engagement celebration that was featured during a July 2026 episode.
When Was He Charged — And What Did He Allegedly Do?
In November 2024, the U.S. Attorney’s Office Western District of Missouri announced in a press release that Steve was charged with one count of federal crop insurance fraud. Steve was accused of making a false report to insurance provider Rain and Hill in 2018, where he underreported his “corn crop by approximately 674,812 bushels” and “his total 2018 soybean crop by approximately 155,833 bushels,” per the DOJ.
Steve allegedly received more than $2.6 million in federal crop insurance benefits plus an additional $552,000 in federal crop insurance premium subsidies after providing the false numbers.
The DOJ further claimed that Steve committed fraud in 2019 and 2020. He allegedly misrepresented that his soybean crops were “the first crop in certain fields” in 2019, when he was also using the same space to grow wheat. When he allegedly decided to double crop, the DOJ argued he was “not entitled” to the insurance claim he filed.
In 2020, Steve allegedly planted corn after the last planting date that year and then gave NAU Country Insurance “false plant dates” to fraudulently obtain a new insurance policy.
The McBee Dynasty brothers vowed to show “the good, the bad, the ugly” on their reality show — including their unfiltered reactions to dad Steve McBee’s FBI investigation. “It’s really, really tough because that is constantly at the forefront of your mind, no matter what you’re doing,” eldest son Steven McBee Jr. exclusively told Us […]
Did He Plead Guilty?
Steve pleaded guilty in November 2024, confessing that his farm sold “more than 1.2 million bushels of corn and nearly 416,000 bushels of soybeans” to another party in 2018, according to the press release.
According to the press release, Steve signed a plea deal where he agreed to pay restitution that will be determined by the court. The government allegedly lost more than $4 million and Steve was estimated to owe more than $3.1 million in restitution.
When Was He Sentenced?
Steve waived his right to a grand jury when he signed his plea deal in November 2024 and was facing up to 30 years in a federal prison without parole.
His sentencing was originally slated for March 2025 but was rescheduled to June and later September of that year. News broke in September 2025 that Steve’s sentencing had been delayed for a fourth time and was set for October 16, 2025.
A judge sentenced Steve to 24 months in prison with an additional two years of supervised release, according to court documents obtained by Us. Steve was ordered to pay $4,022,124 in restitution. He had to self-surrender on December 1, 2025, to begin his prison term.
During the season 3 premiere of McBee Dynasty, which aired in June 2026, Steve’s sentencing was highlighted. Fans learned that in addition to the $4 million in restitution, he was ordered to pay $3 million in fines.
How Did ‘The McBee Dynasty’ Explain His Season 2 Absence?
During the season 2 premiere in June 2025, which filmed in late summer 2024, the cast talked about Steve, but he wasn’t on the show. “He just up and skipped town,” employee Tessa told the cameras of her boss during the episode.
Later in the season, the boys said Steve was traveling with his new girlfriend, Masha, internationally.
How Did Steve’s Family Learn About the FBI Investigation?
Galyna let it slip during season 2, episode 3, that Steve was under investigation by the FBI. At the time, his eldest son, Steven, confirmed that only he, Galyna, and Steve’s ex-wife, Kristi McBee, knew about the investigation. “My dad is under FBI investigation, and you are the only one, and my mom that even knows this is going on. So, this has to stay between us,” Steven told Galyna during the episode, which aired in July 2025.
Steven then told the cameras, “This FBI investigation is wearing on my dad. He didn’t want anything with his involvement affect[ing] any of us boys. My brothers don’t even know about it.”
Steven’s now-ex girlfriend Calah Jackson revealed during season 2, episode 6, that he confided in her about Steve’s legal troubles.
Steven’s younger brothers eventually learned about the scandal while taping season 2. “It was a shell shock just seeing the weight that Steven had been [dealing with],” Jesse exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2025. “It made a lot of things make a lot more sense, just the way that Steven was stressed out and we were trying to figure out why we thought we knew all of his stresses, and obviously he was holding that in and bearing that weight on his shoulders.”
PEACOCK The McBee Dynasty star Steven “Steve” McBee has pleaded guilty to a multimillion-dollar fraud scam using federal crop insurance. According to a November 5 press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Western District of Missouri, McBee, 52, was charged with one count of federal crop insurance fraud. The McBee Farming Operations owner allegedly received […]
What Have Steve’s Sons Said About His Trial?
Since Steve pleaded guilty to the insurance scam, the family has welcomed two new members. Cole and his girlfriend, Kacie, welcomed their first baby, daughter Blair, in December 2024. Jesse and his wife, Alli McBee, welcomed their daughter, Summer, in April 2025.
While the family was worried about Steve’s fate, Jesse and Steven exclusively told Us in July 2025 that they were focusing on the little moments.
“We’ve leaned into family. We take it day by day,” Steven said. “The situation is still ongoing. We’re hoping to have it wrapped up and have some finality to it before the end of the year. That’s the goal, just so we can move on and say, ‘OK, we’ve got this figured out. We can start life again now.’”
He added, “The hard part about it is it’s so unknown. We don’t know what it’s going to look like, so we’re preparing. We’re eating dinner together as a family with my dad, including my mom driving up to the farm three to four nights a week, enjoying the time with the grand babies. Just really cherishing time as a family because we don’t know what it’s going to look like afterwards.”
Was Steve Featured During Season 3?

Season 3 of the Bravo series premiered in June 2026, picking up 24 hours before Steve’s sentencing. While Steve wasn’t shown during the episode, his sentencing hearing and the fate of the family with him behind bars was a major topic.
“It’s the worst feeling I’ve ever felt. I don’t know where the $7 million is going to come from,” Cole said after learning his dad owed $4 million in restitution and $3 million in fines.
Steven was equally worried, telling his siblings, “It’s the damn monetary amount that I’m very concerned [about]. December 1? That gives us what, six weeks [with him].”
Steve’s sons decided to sell their facility to help pay the debt and make sure banks didn’t start calling to collect on their loans.
One month after he was sentenced, Steve reunited with his family on camera for son Cole’s engagement celebration. The episode taped in November 2025 and aired in July 2026, showing Steve with his sons, ex-wife Kristi and their granddaughters raising a glass to Cole and Kacie’s relationship milestone.
SZA is opening up about a deeply personal part of her life. The Grammy-winning singer recently revealed that she was formally diagnosed with autism by medical professionals at 36 years old. The diagnosis also provided clarity, leading SZA to realize that some of her behaviors could be attributed to autism.
Critically acclaimed singer-songwriter SZA, born Solána Imani Rowe, shared an update about a recent diagnosis. On her burner Instagram account, she posted a photo of a medical report showing she had been recently diagnosed with high-functioning autism and Asperger’s.
“Finally took the time n got formally diagnosed… Asperger’s / high functioning autism / smarter than u n—-s so stop playing in my face cause pattern recognition told me and I WILL get to the bottom if [sic] it thanks,” the singer wrote in the caption.
High-functioning autism is the informal term used for people who are on the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with low support needs, which means they could go about basic life skills without assistance, per WebMD. Asperger’s syndrome refers to a high-functioning form of autism.
The summary SZA shared read, in part, “Solana has a qualitative impairment in reciprocal social interaction, as both self-reported and observed by this examiner. Her mother also noted these traits when Solana was a child, although they were not as evident.”
The Singer Attributed Her AI Take On Her Diagnosis
Autism is classified as a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects how someone interacts, learns, communicates, and sees the world. While autistic individuals have a wide range of intelligence, research shows that 40 percent of those with autism display above-average IQ, and those with Asperger’s syndrome mostly have strong verbal skills.
SZA’s diagnostic evaluation found that she exhibited a “superior range in fluid reasoning” and scored in the “gifted range” for linguistic abilities.
The singer added to her post, writing, “pretty sure this is why I’m taking Ai so personally btw lol. And also why I’m in every comment section.” SZA was referring to her recent take on AI, in which she called out musicians who support the “degenerate” technology, as previously reported by The Blast.
SZA Also Has Anxiety
SZA’s report said the singer experiences a “severe degree of anxiety,” which she revealed in the past.
On “Community Voices” in 2022, the singer shared her experiences in the industry and talked about mental health. SZA said she enjoys what she does as a music artist, but also feels pressure and exhaustion from all the work.
“The exhaustion really comes from expectations, berating, and dehumanizing from outside forces. And that sh-t makes me feel like, ‘Why am I doing this? Why would I set myself up to be bodied like this on a regular basis?” she said.
SZA shared how anxious she gets, citing how she felt at the 2022 MET Gala when she found herself unable to walk down the grand staircase to leave. Instead, she “snuck out the back” and grabbed a cab to go back to her hotel. “I was just overwhelmed. I had too much anxiety to wait for my cab in front of the crowd.”
SZA Once Said The Internet Was ‘Demonic’
For Mental Health Awareness Month in 2022, SZA temporarily deactivated her TikTok and posted the announcement on Instagram Stories, urging her followers to do the same, as reported by Hot New Hip Hop. “Get off the internet. The internet is demonic,” the singer said, adding that everyone should “delete anything” that doesn’t serve them.
Before that, SZA lashed back at online trolls who criticized her for attending the MET Gala when she said she would no longer attend public events before her album, “SOS,” was completed. “Y’all suck the joy and life out of EVERYTHING. Thank God for purpose cause Outside of art it’s f-ck y’all. Now run w that,” she wrote.
Other Entertainers With Autism
Through the years, some celebrities have shared their own diagnoses.
In 2021, “Prison Break” star Wentworth Miller revealed his formal autism diagnosis via Instagram, noting that while he was “shocked,” he wasn’t surprised. The actor added that he didn’t know much about autism, but he was focusing on “re-examining 5 decades of lived experience thru a new lens.”
“SNL” alum and “Ghostbusters” star Dan Aykroyd is also on the spectrum and has been open about his diagnosis. He shared one of his symptoms was his “obsession” with cops and ghosts. “I carry around a police badge with me, for example. I became obsessed by Hans Holzer, the greatest ghost hunter ever. That’s when the idea of my film Ghostbusters was born,” he shared.
SZA’s revelation received public support, with fans commending the singer for using her platform to help destigmatize neurodivergence.

Over the weekend, Obsession crossed the $400 million mark at the global box office. It’s notable because the film written and directed by Curry Barker cost $750,000 to make, making it one of the most profitable films in history, but also because that means it has officially surpassed Supergirl ($100 million), Thunderbolts ($382 million), and by the end of the month, is projected to beat Captain America: Brave New World ($415 million). The days of Marvel turning B-tier and even D-tier characters into nearly a billion dollar movies are long over and the younger audiences are flocking back to horror in the pursuit of something new and different.
Obsession Is Young And Hip, Superheroes Are Old And Broken
Obsession dared to tell a different type of story. Sort of. Monkey’s Paw morality stories are a dime a dozen but by leaning into toxic relationships and turning Bear (Michael Johnston) into a horrible person, Barker found the right twist on a classic. It helps that Inde Naverrette as Nikki gave the role her all with one of the year’s best performances. Compare young and hungry up-and-coming stars both behind and in front of the camera to the routine, predictable, superhero movies of the last two years and there’s no wonder younger audiences have made their choice.
Thunderbolts dared to do something different within the Marvel formula by focusing on the damaged psychological states of its villainous heroes. It’s Marvel’s best movie in years but it was damaged by years of disappointing films and an entire phase of films that feel like they have no reason to exist. At the end of the day, it’s still a superhero movie.
DC’s latest in the reborn universe under James Gunn is disappointing. Supergirl had the potential to be something different and daring. Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King is the best arc for the character and Milly Alcock is an inspired choice for Superman’s cousin, yet the end result is a very brown movie that lacks the wonder and amazement of Gunn’s own Guardians of the Galaxy.
Marvel And DC Have To Go Back To The Drawing Board
There’s a lot of lessons Hollywood should learn from the success of Obsession, and none of them will stick. Marvel has Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday hitting theaters this year, both of which will be massive hits. The problem is what comes after them. Marvel is going to reset after Secret Wars, but will anyone still care by then?
James Gunn’s decision to make Clayface, written by the modern King of Horror Mike Flanagan and directed by James Watkins, two people far removed from the superhero sphere of influence, is a huge gamble that can pay off big for Warner Bros. It’s closer to Obsession than it is to Superman, and maybe can bridge the gap between the horror-seeking younger audience and the older-skewing superhero audience.
No matter how the major studios decide to move forward, Obsession is a sign that the world has changed. The superhero formula isn’t working as well as it used to when Captain Marvel and Aquaman both broke a billion. The younger audience is demanding something different, something new, and until Disney and Warner Bros figure out what that is, get used to very expensive VFX-filled superhero throwdowns to lose out to the likes of Sirenhead.
Ariana Grande‘s relationship status is causing major buzz after she was spotted hanging out with her ex, Ricky Alvarez.
The pair enjoyed the holidays by doing some grocery shopping, but fans believe the outing has a hidden meaning to it.
The singer recently split from her partner of almost three years, Ethan Slater, as she kickstarted her highly anticipated Eternal Sunshine Tour.
Grande and Alvarez spent the 4th of July weekend together and were caught on a quick errand to Whole Foods for some grocery shopping.
The pair looked at ease in each other’s company, with the songstress rocking a casual grey sweater with jeans and flats while Alvarez opted for a white polo and dark blue jeans.
In photos obtained by TMZ, Alvarez played the perfect gentleman, carrying all the groceries and loading them into the vehicle. Per the outlet, the friendly exes were on their way to Grande’s parents’ house in Boca Raton for the Independence Day holiday.
Fans React To Ariana Grande And Ricky Alvarez’s Sighting
Grande and Alvarez’s outing quickly made headlines, and eagle-eyed fans noticed that it brought back memories of the former lovers from a decade ago.
Back in 2016, when the pair were an item, they were photographed by JustJared on a grocery store run to Whole Foods. Similar to that time, the “POV” singer wore a sweater and pants, and her then-boyfriend rocked a white shirt and jeans ensemble.
“We’re quite literally back in 2016,” one fan gushed, while another noted, “Decade later and they’re still doing the Whole Foods run together? That’s not a coincidence; that’s a plot twist we all signed up for.”
A third comment read, “Guess they finally found the perfect aisle for a reunion.” However, some fans suspected it wasn’t just a case of history repeating itself.
“Finally good PR over her relationship status, but it’s kinda sad because people are just happy because Ricky is attractive,” one Internet user speculated.
A similar remark read, “This is nothing but marketing. Just wait. No genuinely happy celeb couple tries this hard to get photographed.”
The Singer Changed Lyrics For Her Ex-Boyfriend
The duo’s rekindled friendship comes as no surprise, as they have been hanging out for weeks now, with Alvarez even making an appearance at the Austin, Texas, stop of her show.
As reported by E! News, during the June 26 show, which happened to be Grande’s birthday, she honored her ex-boyfriend’s presence by switching up her lyrics.
While singing her hit tune, “Thank U, Next,” the 33-year-old belted, “Wrote some songs about Ricky / I know he still got my back,” changing the last part from “Now I listen and laugh.”
Social media clips from the concert showed Alvarez shyly smiling while interacting with Grande’s parents, who were also in the audience.
Grande Remains Friendly With Ex Ethan Slater After Split
Grande and Alvarez’s tongue-wagging reunion comes less than a month after her split from her “Wicked” co-star Ethan Slater was confirmed.
According to The Blast, the pair called it quits after nearly three years together, with a close source saying the breakup was far from tumultuous.
“It’s amicable; they gave lots of time and careful consideration and decided to go their separate ways,” claimed the insider, who added that the exes remain friends and are “very supportive.”
The source added that the Nickelodeon alum was doing “great” after the split, with her focus on the tour and her upcoming album, “Petal.”
Fans may recall that Grande and Slater became an item in late 2022 while filming “Wicked” amid her failed marriage to Dalton Gomez.
Ariana Grande’s Breakup Speaks To Distributing Relationship Trend
Following the end of her romance with Slater, close sources dissected what seemed to be a pattern in Grande’s romantic life.
The informant explained that it is typical for the songstress to fall hard and be completely consumed with her romantic interest at the start. However, once major career opportunities come her way, her focus shifts away.
“The person she’s with gets her full attention, and it’s easy to get swept up in that. But then something shifts. That’s a pattern people around her have seen play out more than once,” the source said, per The Blast.
Marcellus Wiley was arrested on July 4 after being accused of misdemeanor domestic violence. Now, following the arrest, his wife, former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Annemarie Wiley, is filing for divorce, has requested a restraining order, and accused the famed football player of sexual assault and other abusive behavior.
According to TMZ, Annemarie is requesting a restraining order from the court, which would require Marcellus to keep 100 feet away from her at all times. If granted, the restraining order would give her full access to the marital home.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum stated in her declaration that she experienced a “continuing and escalating pattern of physical violence, sexual abuse, verbal and emotional abuse, financial control and intimidation.”
Annemarie continued, “Because of the trauma associated with many of these events, there are gaps in my memory, as I have blocked out much of what Marcellus has done to me.”
The “RHOBH” Alum Detailed The Abuse She Faced In The Marriage
Annemarie used the court order request to detail the abuse she allegedly suffered at the hands of Marcellus over the years. Per TMZ, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum claims that he raped her in 2012 while he was under the influence. She also stated that he tried to have sexual relations with two of her friends the same year.
According to Annemarie, the abuse didn’t end then. She claims that in 2014, Marcellus punched her in the face, resulting in a black eye. Years later, when she was 9 months pregnant in 2019, Annemarie says he launched a bottle of Coca-Cola at her head.
Then, from her memory, the “RHOBH” alum says Marcellus hit her in the face with his shoes in August 2025. After that, in January 2026, she says he dragged her out of bed, verbally assaulted her, and then hit her on the head.
Per the filing, “He then raped me, telling me that I was his property and that I had to do what he said.” She also accuses him of sexually assaulting her a second time on the same day as the first offense. The former “RHOBH” star also says he sexually assaulted her again two days after.
Details Of The Divorce
Some of Annemarie’s allegations against Marcellus are financial. Namely, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star is also accusing her husband of borrowing $100k from her but failing to repay it. She also claims he made $100k worth of charges on her credit card.
Regarding the divorce, Annemarie is requesting custody of their three children. Their date of marriage was listed as February 7, 2024, but the date of separation was labeled “TBD.” Annemarie also requested spousal support from the former football player.
The former Bravo star also stated in the filing that she requested the restraining order because she feared for her life. As of writing, a judge has not ruled on Annemarie’s request for a restraining order from Marcellus.
Marcellus Wiley Was Arrested In Florida
Marcellus was taken to the Orange County Jail on July 4 for an alleged domestic battery. It’s worth noting that Annemarie was not initially reported to have been the victim in the domestic battery incident. According to NBC Sports, he was then released the following day on a $1,000 bond.
Following his release, Marcellus released a statement on X, denying having abused Annemarie. He said, “I’m deeply grateful for the love, prayers, and concern for me and my itty bitties. Your support is fully appreciated. I completely and unequivocally deny these allegations, and I’m certain the truth will prevail.”
The 51-year-old continued, “As you know, I’m usually the first to break down the truth and separate facts from fiction. But because this is now a legal matter—and because my greatest responsibility is protecting my babies, who have already been impacted—I have to handle this differently.”
He then said, “When I can speak freely, I absolutely will. Until then, thank you for your patience, your prayers, and for continuing to stand with me.”
Annemarie Wiley Announced Her Exit From ‘RHOBH’ In 2024
Annemarie joined “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” in 2023 for the show’s 13th season. However, after only one season, she announced that she’d been fired from the show in March of the following year. Per PEOPLE, she revealed the news in a now-deleted Instagram post.
Annemarie said, “I just got word today that I will not be returning to ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.’ To say that I’m disappointed is an understatement.”
She continued, “I never auditioned for this show. The show found me and asked me to be on it out of the blue, 6 weeks after the cast had already started filming. I was thrown into filming 2 weeks later, mid-season.”
Annemarie then stated that she was misled about the show. According to her, “I was very excited about the opportunity, and I thought following exactly what I was instructed to do throughout filming last season was the way the ‘game was played.’”
She added, “Listening to what I was instructed to do was my rookie mistake. … Contrary to what was shown on TV, I am not obsessed with the esophagus! LOL.”

‘John Wick’ Star’s Forgotten Action Bomb Resurfaces 6 Years Later as Massive Netflix Hit
2026 has been a big year for Netflix so far, and most of its most successful hits have come from its original programming. The first movie that immediately comes to mind is War Machine, the sci-fi epic headlined by Alan Ritchson that earned over 130 million views, enough to make it one of the top 10 most-watched Netflix original films in history. The film was such a success that Netflix has already announced it’s working on a sequel, but at this time it’s entirely too early to predict when it could be released. Netflix also released a new sci-fi series, The Boroughs, which was cancelled after only one season despite being positioned as the platform’s next Stranger Things. Another non-original Netflix sci-fi show, The Last Ship (starring Eric Dane), has been blowing up on the streamer over last few weeks after all five seasons were added to the platform.
Netflix is always searching for hidden gems that may have never found an audience in theaters, ones that can be revived thanks to its gargantuan streaming subscriber base. One long-forgotten movie that has found redemption on Netflix as of this week is The Doorman, the heist thriller starring Ruby Rose, who is best known for her role as Ares in John Wick: Chapter 2. Jean Reno and Rupert Evans also have key roles in the action thriller, which was written by Lior Chefetz, Joe Swanson, Devon Rose, and Matt McAllester, and directed by Ryūhei Kitamura. The Doorman is streaming on Prime Video, Pluto TV, and Tubi in America, but the film was recently added to Netflix’s global library, where it has become a top 10 sensation in more than 25 countries.
What Is ‘The Doorman’ About?
The official synopsis of The Doorman reads as follows: “When a former Marine takes a job as a doorman at a luxury Manhattan high-rise, she never expects to be reunited with her late sister’s family living inside. But when a ruthless gang of mercenaries storms the building hunting for priceless hidden art, she’s forced to use her deadly combat skills to protect her niece and nephew — turning every hallway into a battlefield.” The Doorman earned poor scores of 24% from critics and 23% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes. Budget information about the film was never released to the public, but it grossed less than $1 million at the global box office.
Check out The Doorman on Netflix globally or on Prime Video in America, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of all the hottest projects on streaming.

Penélope Cruz revealed that she suffered from several brain aneurysm “scares” in recent years.
“I have had many scares like that,” The Invite actress, 52, said in an interview Net-a-Porter published on Monday, July 6. “Fortunately, I’m fine, it was a false alarm.”
Cruz, who shares son Leo, 15, and daughter, Luna, 12, with husband Javier Bardem, explained that the health issues inspired her to make sure she was on the right path for her well-being.
“I worry about staying healthy, taking care of myself,” she explained. “I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I really don’t party. Without health, we have nothing. You talk about real equality? Why don’t we start with health?”
Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem knew each other for more than a decade before falling in love, they have managed to keep their personal lives relatively private ever since. The couple met while filming the 1992 film Jamón, Jamón. They reunited for 2008’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona and sparks flew. Cruz and Bardem began dating in […]
Cruz added that women’s health issues don’t get as much research compared to men’s ailments.
“It’s shocking that over decades, we’ve stuck to the same information about how women’s bodies work,” she told the outlet. “Look at funding for investigation into any illness that affects only women — we don’t get even half the investment. It is a level of control or suppression.”
Earlier this year, Cruz publicly spoke about experiencing brain aneurysm symptoms while filming The Black Ball. During the film’s premiere at Cannes in May, the actress, who plays a cabaret performer in the Spanish film, revealed that a doctor told her about the health issue before one of her night shoot sequences.
“We’re about to go out, I was putting on my wig, and they said, ‘Oh, apparently you have some brain aneurysm,’” she recalled of the instance at the film’s festival screening, per Variety. “I thought I was about to die. This is something that was totally surreal in my life.”
Cruz explained she took the rest of the evening off and was medically cleared by a doctor to continue the production.
“I thought, ‘It’s a total miracle,’” she reflected. “I have to, I must have this in me.”
The actress added that the health scare also made her performance and connection to the film’s crew stronger.
“You experience these things together, yet despite all this, despite the hardship, you can move forward in life,” she said.
The Black Ball is a queer drama that spans nearly a decade of Spanish history. It is based on the unfinished work of the same name by Federico García Lorca. In addition to Cruz, the film adaptation stars Guitarricadelafuente, Miguel Bernardeau, Carlos González, Milo Quifes, Lola Dueñas and Glenn Close.
Following its premiere at Cannes, The Black Ball earned a 16-minute standing ovation.
