And thats how perfection is defined !

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2010)

The Departed is a Martin Scorsese's film,where once again the greatness of this director is proved.Leonardo DiCaprio is obviously his unspoken muse which i respect completely.Anyone who says that Leonardo is just a pretty face with no acting skills,has no clue about movies or actors.His magnificent performance is going to leave you with your mouth open and probably will make fall of your chair.I put this movie along with "Usual Suspects" as one of the greatest thrillers ever made. The story follows two policeman working for or against the government.If you think the story is already seen,think again.Scorsese manages to develop intriguing and unpredictable history of movies. Every character is prepared and worked out with great amount of dedication and hard work.Jack Nicholson (you can love him or not ) but his craziness and eccentricity work unbelievably in this motion picture.A role of a mafia boss is so suitable for him,that afterward you won't be able to picture him differently. I must say,Matt Daemon is not my favorite actor,but this is the movie where i changed my opinion.He is brilliant! The music is amazing.You will hear great Irish sounds mixed with a dose of hard rock which suits the movie perfectly. Martin Sheen is another perfect contribution to this movie making it complete and amazing.Still,my favorite character in this movie remains Mark Wahlberg that will "wow" you with his extraordinary performance and great,funny,but meaningful dialogs. This movie does deserve to win not one,not four but many Oscars and to find its place in the "best movies of all times" list ! One of the greatest movies ever ! A true masterpiece and definitely a must see !
