Another Scorsese classic for the ages

Rating: Null/10 (12 July 2018)

The Departed has Scorsese return to his Italian mafia roots and the film is an absolute blast. Featuring a bucket load of talent both in front and behind the camera Departed was a remake of a Hong Kong movie Infernal Affairs. Set in Boston and involving the FBI and moles this is a film that will make you never trust the good cops again. It makes you realize almost everyone is corrupt to a degree. Mark Whalberg, Leonardo Di Caprio and Matt Damon are in top form and ably guided by legends like Jack Nicholson and Martin Sheen.
