"THE DEPARTED"...GO SEE IT!!

The best movie I've seen in a LONG TIME - THE DEPARTED



I saw this movie last Friday and this is movie is definitely being added to my list of all-time favorites. There's an all-star cast in the film and everyone does a GREAT job. But the storylines, the rawness, ... Man it's just a GOOD movie!
"No, I don’t actually think that Martin Scorsese will win an Oscar for The Departed and if he does, it’ll be for purely political reasons putting into account his entire oeuvre rather than this specific film. This isn’t to say that The Departed is anything less than a jaw-dropping masterpiece, but it’s also a violent, macho, ugly, intense Fuck you to the prissy white haired academy voters that have repeatedly snubbed America’s greatest living director. It’s the kind of film that your mother will hate, that your date will try to weasel out of and that your friends will be quoting for days. It’s the kind of film that’s usually dismissed as “cool” due to clever but limited direction but that’s now elevated by a masterful filmmaker and an incredible cast. It’s a pot-boiling thriller threatening to explode any second. In short, it’s Martin Scorsese’s best film in years and a film that will go down as an undeniable classic."
