Scorsese's best!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (16 October 2006)

This is definitely one of Scorsese's best films. Unlike the direction he had been taking in making more historical films like the Aviator, this brings him back to the real, early 90's Scorsese. Take all the best elements of Goodfellas, Casino, any pre-Gangs-of-new-york-Scorsese, and you have The Departed! The cast is phenomenal!!! Jack Nicholson plays the perfect Mafia boss, and Matt Damon opposite Leo Dicaprio works perfectly. Although the plot is foreseeable from the very first minute of the movie, you never know what to expect from scene to scene. The movie kept me excited from beginning to end. Mr.Scorsese, you've done it again!!!!!
