The Departed (DVD) ... youngest, brightest men into the Massachusetts Police Academy as cadets. Their purpose is to eventually rise within the prestigious ranks of the city's police department, to serve as the eyes and ears of their boss. While somewhere else, a young cadet was assigned with an equally dangerous task: infiltrate the Irish syndicate headed by the man sending in his own to the Boston Police. Now, one cadet is an up and coming police official with a torn allegiance to his job and to the criminal mastermind that put him there. While the other cadet is the trusted number two of that man, only finding his professional duties are becoming blurred with his current state. But new clues have lead to unfortunate discoveries, when both sides realize they're being watched by the enemy. It's now all just a matter of time before the men assigned to find out whose the infiltrator, could come to a bloody end when someone's identity may be revealed.

Jr. (Leonardo DiCaprio), who both become cops and then take different routes: William becomes a mole in the outfit of big-time crime boss Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson), while Colin becomes a cop while actually being a rat for Costello and feeding him information. Soon enough it all becomes a big mess and nobody is sure who is on whose side, resulting in plenty of bloodshed, rivalries, and confusion. Caught in the middle is Madeline (Vera Farmiga), a psychiatrist who becomes caught in a love triangle between Costiga...more

Premium Review The Departed (DVD): One of my favorite Scorsese movies, superb! (575 words)

The Departed -------------------------------------- The Film -------------------------------------- Now this, this is a film. And not just a mob film either, it's far more. I have to say at first I wasn't to bothered whether I saw this film or not. Although one day I ended up buying it, seeing it quite cheap at Tesco and thought it'd be something worth watching (I mean after all its got an excellent director and great cast). As soon as I put it on I knew I'd been an idiot for not watching it sooner. The film comes across as a great mix of crime thriller and mob movie. The shear brutality of the film is something that you can't forget in a ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review You dirty rat! (1401 words)

(Film only review) What’s it about? ------------------- A corrupt cop is given the task of finding out who is leaking information to local crimelord Frank Costello – despite the fact he is the leak! Meanwhile, another cop is sent deep undercover to find information on Costello’s activities. Who’s in it? --------------- The cast has been billed as the dream team of Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio. Whilst certainly a very good cast, it somehow doesn’t quite live up to expectations. Leonardo DiCaprio plays Will Costigan, a policeman from a bad family who is selected to go deep undercover to infiltrate ...  Read the complete review

Billy Costigan and Colin Sullivan both enter the police force wanting to work their way up. The only thing is, Colin is really a mole, planted by Irish mob leader, Frank Costello, whereas Billy, because of his family's mob connections, is planted undercover and becomes Costello's right hand man. A first, neither man is aware of the other; Billy's point of contact is through agents Queenan and Dignam, and Colin, who works for Queenan and Dignam, has a hot line direct to Costello himself. But then it becomes clear that there is a mole on both sides of the law; will Billy and Colin be able to continue to fight for their sides without being uncovered? Or is one of them ...  Read the complete review

"I don't want to be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me. Years ago we had the church. That was only a way of saying - we had each other. The Knights of Columbus were real head-breakers; true guineas. They took over their piece of the city. Twenty years after an Irishman couldn't get a f&*$ing job, we had the presidency. May he rest in peace. That's what the n*&$ers don't realize. If I got one thing against the black chappies, it's this - no one gives it to you. You have to take it." These opening lines by Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson) in Scorsese's film "Departed" are delivered cheerfully and without ...  Read the complete review

"The Departed" is about law enforcement, organized crime, and the deceptions of two men on opposite sides, both living double lives. One is Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon), from the Irish-American Mafia family headed by Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson) who gets into the Massachusetts State Police and then becomes Costello's mole there. The other is 'Billy' Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio), who despite his family connections to organized crime, becomes an undercover policeman, and planted into Costello's Mafia gang to help the police stop their criminal activities. Both men end up being asked to help discover the identities of the informants in their respective ...  Read the complete review
