The Departed - Classic Scorsese

unspeakable violence.......as much implied as seen........now that's vintage Scorsese..... violence is one of the things Scorsese does best........

the original bad boy Jack Nicholson as Frank Costello does his best work in years.......he just enjoys being the bad guy.........Leonardo DiCaprio in an author backed role is just about perfect.....Scorsese is getting the best of him......first the aviator and now this........i would have loved to see more of Martin Sheen & Mark Wahlberg...........Matt Damon was a perfect choice for his role.....i personally feel that he should stop doing the Bourne series.....he is a misfit for movies as those........

this movie is in the same league as the other Scorsese classics such as the taxi driver, raging bull, cape fear, good fellas..............the departed grips and shocks and entertains........i loved it......
