Review

 

Cops or criminals; when you're facing a loaded gun what's the difference?

A big-budget Hollywood star power remake of the Hong Kong classic crime thriller Infernal Affairs.

Two men operate on different sides of the law; one a mole with the Boston State Police department, the other within the Irish mafia. When bloodshed breaks out on the streets, each mole is despatched to discover the other's identity in a race against time...

Marty finally collected the Best Director statuette at the 2007 Oscars after decades of bad luck. Not only that but the Departed also picked up awards for Best Editing, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best film!

Brillant piece of work from Scorsese. Well written and acted. Nicholson was outstanding. I only watched this recently prior to that had only seen segments. I was gripped by the battle between
the two main leads as the plot began to unravel a great piece of cinema. Hats off to Scorsese for producing once again a master piece.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars The Departed!

and make sure you also try the original asian version infernal affairs I (as part of a trilogy). i saw this asian version first: a really good good cop/bad cop movie, very convincing.
the american remake is also very good but if you know the original story, it stays a remake. nothing to be ashamed of because with this very strong cast and a class director qualitiy is assured. good entertainment. telling you about the plot would spoil it.
