The Departed

Started by Cuchulain

Anyone else seen it yet ?

Thought it was brilliant , one of the best movies I’ve seen in years and that’s something as I’m normally a grumpy old movie critic.

Must be up there with Goodfellas and Casino imo , hope Scorcese finally gets the Oscar he rightly deserves.

Oh , and that DiCappucino fella can definitely act , which came as a bit of a shocker to me.

Yes!

This is a fantastic film! I usually don’t like Scorsese but I was blown away by this film…and like you i am a grumpy old git, i’m rarely impressed by anything in this horrible plastic World we live in!
But this is a great film!

Jack Nicholson and Leo especially were fantastic. I shall definately be buying this one on DVD.

GO SEEE IT!!!

:)

I thought it was a very good film, nice little twists near the end to keep you guessing. It’s a remake of a hong kong movie as far as my friend said they didn’t change much at all.:)

why does everyone think he can’t act just because he’s a pretty boy?!

He was great in Gangs of New York and as far back as the Beach. Maybe even Titanic but i refuse to watch that.

Leonardo de Caprio was absolutely amazing in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?. He should have had an Oscar for that performance. And I said back then that he was going to be very very successful and I was right! :D

I’ve always said that DiCaprio can act. It’s just that he’s got an amazingly annoying face.

Too long and too dull. Worth stealing from the internet, but not worth the visit in the cinema.

Just got this the other day on DVD. Best movie in years!!

Last 30 minutes F’s with you so much!! just when you think it’s going to end on way, something happens.

Brilliant! As much as it pains me to say, DiCaprio can act.

Anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, go see it!
