Brian De Palma films are a guilty pleasure for me.

Sisters (1973), Blow Out (1981), Carlito's Way (1993), Snake Eyes (1998), Femme Fatale (2002) and the films listed above.

Although I always feel the intricate / stylish set pieces are better than his films as a complete whole.
The Untouchables (1987) being the exception as his most accessible commercial hit in his filmography.

Guilty pleasure is a good way to describe them. They do teeter on the verge of parody at times (thinking especially of John Lithgow in Raising Cain!), but they are great fun to watch.
Good call on Blow Out too; loved that film as well.
