Not bad for a remake but...

Rating: 2/10 (25 March 2007)

Come on Hollywood, by hiring big stars for your movies doesn't make them any better; neither does getting a little statue from the Academy. I respect good actors with big names but, please, be original. Why a remake? The answer is probably: You are out of ideas. Of course the Departed is a great story but is not yours. The only "good" thing you are doing is saving your audience from reading subtitles, which believe me, a lot of them appreciate that a lot. I guess it is so easy to get use to make a living out of people who can afford their ignorance. Let them read, let them learn to appreciate originality. You got the means $$, you got the brain?, we're still waiting for a great original story.
