Martin Scorsese makes a welcome return to the mean streets (of Boston, in this case) with The Departed, hailed by many as Scorsese's best film since Casino. Since this crackling crime thriller is essentially a Scorsese-stamped remake of the acclaimed 2002 Hong Kong thriller Infernal Affairs, the film was intensely scrutinized by devoted critics and cinephiles, and while Scorsese's intense filmmaking and all-star cast deserve ample acclaim, The Departed is also worthy of serious re-assessment, especially with regard to what some attentive viewers described as sloppy craftsmanship (!), notably in terms of mismatched shots and jagged continuity. But no matter where you fall on the Scorsese appreciation scale, there's no denying that The Departed is a signature piece of work from one of America's finest directors, designed for maximum impact with a breathtaking series of twists, turns, and violent surprises. It's an intricate cat-and-mouse game, but this time the cat and mouse are both moles: Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon) is an ambitious cop on the rise, planted in the Boston police force by criminal kingpin Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson). Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a hot-tempered police cadet who's been artificially disgraced and then planted into Costello's crime operation as a seemingly trustworthy soldier. As the multilayered plot unfolds (courtesy of a scorching adaptation by Kingdom of Heaven screenwriter William Monahan), Costigan and Sullivan conduct a volatile search for each other (they're essentially looking for "themselves") while simultaneously wooing the psychiatrist (Vera Farmiga) assigned to treat their crime-driven anxieties.

Such convenient coincidences might sink a lesser film, but The Departed is so electrifying that you barely notice the plot-holes. And while Nicholson's profane swagger is too much "Jack" and not enough "Costello," he's still a joy to watch, especially in a film that's additionally energized by memorable (and frequently hilarious) supporting roles for Alec Baldwin, Mark Wahlberg, and a host of other big-name performers. The Departed also makes clever and plot-dependent use of cell-phones, to the extent that it couldn't exist without them. Powered by Scorsese's trademark use of well-chosen soundtrack songs (from vintage rock to Puccini's operas), The Departed may not be perfect, but it's one helluva ride for moviegoers, proving popular enough to become the biggest box-office hit of Scorsese's commercially rocky career. --Jeff Shannon

5 out of 5 stars A Great Format For A Great Movie   November 10, 2008
The title of this review pretty much says it all. There is not a lot of action in this flick, but the music is killer. The blu-ray audio enhances this. Visually, on my system, the blacks are black and the colors are brilliant. I highly recommend this movie for blu-ray.


1 out of 5 stars I had such consideration...   October 8, 2008

...for Martin Scorcese that I feel very sorry for his precocious senility. I can't think of any other explanation (there is no excuse) for mistaking di Caprio for an actor (which is about as ludicrous as mistaking McDos for restaurants). And, since he's persisting in polluting the screens with something whose only merit is he never will be a "Has Been" (since he never was anything in the first place), from now on I will keep clear from Scorcese's movies.


3 out of 5 stars been done at least a million times   October 4, 2008
 0 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a classic mob story about trust, betrayal, back stabbing and deception. Where the coppers have a rat and the gangsters have a rat and how each try to flush the others informant out. The action was minimal the sex was less and no twist ending here folks. The acting was good but nothing top notch. Personally I think Wahlberg's character was plaid the best. Dicaprio plaid a convincing roll during the emotional scenes. Its a story that's been done at least a million times but Its worth at least 1 viewing but don't expect anything new or worth talking about at the water cooler so to speak.

Arrived in reasonable time and in the promised condition. I thought the shipping and handling charges were high.

I like this movie so much I bought it, and I am cheap. Jack Nicholson is one bad mfer, and Marky Mark is the best actor in the movie. I even admired that retarded baldwin dude's acting skills. Too bad dicrapio dies at the end.
