L.A. Confidential is probably the pinnacle of detective movies.
 
Wow, it's all been said here pretty much.

I don't know if Brick counts because I see Brendan as a detective in a way. Just in a school setting.
 
In no particular order:

-LA Confidential (If you haven't seen this, GO WATCH IT NOW!)
-Laura
-The Maltese Falcon
-The Big Sleep
-Body Heat (if you haven't see this, GO NOW)
-Seven
-The Departed (If you haven't seen this...what's wrong with you, buddy?)
-Gone Baby Gone
-Heat
-The Dark Knight (Yeah, I'm counting it)

Off the top of me head, that is.
