The Departed is one of Jack's classics

Rating: 9/10 (3 November 2014)

I watched The Departed on UK television last night, and it brought home to me what Jack is all about...He is just the best guy on the planet. He brings such wisdom and intensity to his roles in film. He can make you want to root for him and want to see him crushed within minutes as he plays out his role. The Departed will always stand the the test of time as one of the understated great ones, bringing the harsh realities of gangland life to the screen. Loved it. Leo is becoming a true acting legend of our lifetime. Taking on this role, he manages to step away from his pretty-boy looks role and really shows his true talents. Well worth its Oscar. GK should stick to what he does best, making this type of gritty crime drama.
