The irony

Rating: 6/10 (4 March 2007)

This movie is a perfect copy of an Asian movie 'Mou gaan dou' (Infernal Affairs) which was by far much better. Everybody is saying that this movie is very good, but the only thing that Scorsese did was to put the actors in the movie to do exactly like in the Asian movie, so I don't see why is he getting all the credit. After seeing Infernal Affairs this movie didn't impressed me at all, but made me feel sad that they can't come with an original idea like the Asian movies are made. Hollywood should learn from them. Just watch the original movie and see what I mean. I just can't understand why only the movies that are made at Hollywood win Oscars, and many of them are remake of so much better movies (Asian movies in general) which don't get such awards. It's just unfair.
