You think Scorsese a pretty good director would be able to make a good undercover cop film. Wrong. Scorsese simply decides at a certain point in the movie that the plot is too complicated, so what can a shitty director do? Kill everybody that's what. Fuck you Scorsese.

And if you haven't seen The Departed, your welcome. I just saved you money.

I thought it wasn't bad but definitely didn't warrant the academy award that it received. Apparently the voters thought it was the best of pool of options.

Um the movie was really well done. If you follow the plot it gets really intense and complex with both sides about 1 move away from defeating the other side.



+ Show Spoiler +
I actually liked the ending. I didn't expect Leonardo Dicaprio; the hero, to get shot randomly like that. Also, Mark Wahlburg is god.

Yeah it gets a 90 for overall quality, a small bonus for trying to be different, and then a penalty for not being awesome. I'd give it a 87.897868578457

He's probably just a Leonardo Fanboy who shit his pants when Leo gets popped in the head.



But in all seriousness, the movie was alright. I didn't think it was that great to be honest.

Jack and Mark Wahlberg were awesome in it I thought.

Then again, there's not many movies that Jack isn't awesome in.

I thought the original was a lot better, but I did watch it first so that could be the reason.

i agree, the departed was disappointing considering the buzz/awards it received.

i did watch Infernal Affairs, and the US version doesn't do justice...the HK movie is far more complex on many more layers...

the problem i have with the director, when he was asked if there would be a 'sequel'... he replied.. "most likely, it will probably be a PREQUEL.."

that pissed me off because the Infernal Affairs 2 IS A PREQUEL... he does not acknowledge that what so ever...

I heard so much hype about infernal affairs, but it got to the end and I was just like, what?

If they had just devoted like 5 more minutes to him finally retiring and trying to live a good life, maybe I would have got a sense of freedom, which would have made the ending sad

as it was, it was just a failed good guy thing. I was surprised, but as much as I liked the character, there just wasnt enough at stake to really move me.

still a very good movie, but IMO, 5 more minutes of development would have made it amazing

havent seen the departed

wow. Infernal Affairs is 10x better than The Departed plot-wise. Sure, The Departed had better acting, but there are a billion things wrong, and a billion undeveloped things that just go BAM take this result as granted at the very end.

+ Show Spoiler +

Things in particular that were particularly disappointing were:

Why the fuck did Matt Damon turn on Nicholson at the end of the movie? He DID NOT explain the whole Nicholson being a FBI informatant thing, or at least if he did, the way he explained it was a load of CRAP. In Infernal Affairs, they at least showed flashbacks of scenes where Andy (equivalent to Matt Damon's role) revealed that his bad-guy roots were becoming more and more faded by his new role as a detective.

How the hell did Leo and the girl develop that relationship. That was just so retarded. And then in the end, he goes like, you're the only person I can trust now. Um.... I don't think having sex with her merits your trust already. They don't know each other at all.
