Remake of his own work

Rating: 3/10 (5 February 2007)

I really didn't like this at all. It's another Scorsese remake of his own recent work, namely Gangs of New York. Similar phenomena we had with Casino and Goodfellas. Usually Scorsese's worst is still OK, but The Departed was so predictable I was seriously bored.
Anyways, in addition to the default point, one point for decent photography and one for Nicholson, who is always splendid, even at his worst. Matt Damon was again as good as he was in Team America and Leonardo tried hard to get rid of his boyish appeal again. I recently heard he had threatened to quit acting after Titanic, I wish he would have.
