One of the MOST captivating cop dramas I've EVER seen! It's got to be my all-time FAVORITE!
Yes, we may LOVE LOVE LOVE The Departed, but we sure HATE HATE HATE what happens to our favorite character!!!
If you've NOT yet seen this amazing cop-crime-dram, RUN to your local Blockbuster and rent it! Or, better yet -- buy it so that you can watch it over and over to catch those scenes that bear repeating. Did you know, The Departed won 4 Oscars along with another 49 wins and 49 nominations? It's going to take one heck of a movie to beat this one out for a fantastic array of characters and plot as my all-time pick for best cop-crime-drama!
Quick, weigh in ...

The scoop on The Departed
The Departed is a 2006 crime thriller film directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Jack Nicholson. It is an American remake of the 2002 Hong Kong crime thriller Infernal Affairs. The film won four Academy Awards at the 79th Academy Awards, including the Best Picture, and a long-awaited Best Director win for Scorsese.
This film takes place in Boston, Massachusetts, where notorious Irish Mob boss Francis "Frank" Costello (Nicholson) plants his protégé Colin Sullivan (Damon) as an informant within the Massachusetts State Police. Simultaneously, the police assign undercover cop William Costigan, Jr. (DiCaprio) to infiltrate Costello's crew. When both sides of the law realize the situation, each man attempts to discover the other's true identity before being found out.
Showdown!

Just great all around. I didn't know what to expect, but this happened to be the best movie I have ever seen. Great twists even though you may have an idea of the situation some things just caught me by surprise. LOVE IT!
