The Departed is DiCaprio at his Best!

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2006)

I hadn't even heard about The Departed until 1 hour before I went to the movies with some good friends. I had been so busy and haven't gone to the movies in awhile. I just recently saw The Black Dahlia and thought that was great and looking forward to seeing Hollywoodland, but hadn't heard anything about The Departed. From the first moment and every scene until the end credits my heart was pounding. I was so filled with excitement and the suspense was incredible. The acting was amazing. At first I was surprised at each actor that came into play and I no long saw the actors, but became involved, intertwined and wrapped up in each character. Liking, loving, and getting emotionally involved. I was so wired when I got home. The next day I wanted to run to see it again. I haven't yet seen it again...but I want to. These characters are so real and easily become attached to you...making you laugh, cry, happy, sad, and feel alive...like a shock..shocking you...inspiring you...making you think...and even appreciate life even more...I certainly do. This is the Best movie of 2006 and Brilliantly written, casted, acted and directed. Go see it...take your friends...enjoy!!
