best mob film EVER, Martin Scorsese is a genius!!!

Rating: 10/10 (24 January 2007)

OK, so I am a die hard Godfather fan. As well as Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas, Casino & Gangs of New York. But this film is by far Scorsese's greatest work. This film is a work of art in all aspects, from Nicholson's eccentric character to Wahlberg and DiCaprios feuding characters, to the immersive plot and character depth, The Departed has it all.

And what better twist than to have all (well, most) of the main characters get blown away or thrown from buildings all within 5 minutes?! My jaw was floored, I loved it. I loved this movie, it kicks ass!!! I can't wait to see it again this weekend, and buy it February 13!!! its going at the front of my mom film collection. 10/10, 4 stars, and the Oscars suck because this movie should be nominated for ever award possible!!! Martin Scorsese, you are a genius!!!
