Scorsese, at his best!
Ok if you think "Reservoir dogs" is one of the best plots or one of the finest Mafia movies, well think again.
I couldn't help but draw similarities to QT's movie, but honestly "The departed" is just too good. In so many aspects.
It starts with a great performance from Matt Damon, a la "good will hunting", great face expressions from Jack Nicholson, a la "shining" and yes ladies and gentlemen, a perfect performance of DiCaprio. I was never a big fan of him, but honestly, his acting skills in this movie were phenomenal.
I won't talk about the plot, I would let you discover that.
Great director in Scorsese, great performances from Nicholson (who would only compete with DiCaprio for an Oscar), Damon and DiCaprio.
Don't miss that movie. A lot of blood, a lot shooting in the forehead, a lot of suspense, a lot of cheap worthless killing, all tainted with some red. and love.

Agree!
You should see him in "Blood Diamond". It is good too!
Plus, now playing: The Good Sheperd" this should be worth the ticket as well.

paul, a great movie indeed. And yes Di Caprio is a great actor indeed. He just sucked in Titanic because the movie is crap, but he is a great actor... and yes scorcese will most def. get the oscar for the departed. however, I am not sure if you are aware that the departed is an adaptation of a Korean movie... same plot and everything.
that does not take anything from the American movie though. I enjoyed it a lot.
