Disappointed

Rating: 6/10 (13 October 2006)

I expected more from this movie but after watching it yesterday now I know how great was the original "internal affairs". When I learned that Martin Scorsese was the director for this remake of Hong Kong's best selling detective movie I was so excited but was disappointed in the end . The ending was horrible does not make any sense. They try to make a drama into a comedy what a joke! The casting and acting was horrible too. Only Matt was pretty good in the movie the rest are ridiculous. In addition the tempo of the movie was so slow it seem like it was never going to end. The departed is one of the worse remake of all time. If you want to see a masterpiece watch "internal affairs" if you want to watch a comedy with sub par acting watch "the departed". I can not believe how they can mess up an excellent plot and come up with this rubbish.
