Living up to its expectations

Rating: 10/10 (12 October 2006)

Before seeing a movie that has been hyped with such A list actors, one is hesitant on how well they will perform with each other. The Departed's cast blew me out of my seat. Nicholson, Damon, and Dicaprio each brought their own unique attributes to the characters they were casted for. The roles were both strong individually yet were given the opportunity to play off of each other. I can honestly say that this was one of the best movies I have seen in a while. The Departed not only keeps you on your seat but also intrigues you with a great story line. I would recommend seeing this movie in a heartbeat. This should definitely be considered for movie of the year!
