brilliant. excellent. awesome. realistic.

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2007)

Probably the years best drama crime, and Leonardo DiCaprio's best performance in a film ever! Over the years of my life, their have been three Martin Scorsese films suck as "gangs of NY" "goodfellas" and "the departed", and it is hard for me to choose which one, so i watched each one and my least favorite is "goodfellas" my second "gangs of NY" and my absolute favorite is "the departed"! this is a very realistic film, based on the details of living in crime infested areas of Boston, and a cop that pretends to be a member of Costello's groups in the area, to get information on him so that the Boston police can put him away for good. This won an Oscar for best director and it deserved it, and the other 3 Oscars.
