pretty good flick.

6.5 out of 10. Pretty good ending for a change, but a little slow in the beginning. I'm not disappointed I went. I'm also very tough on movies, so 6.5 is good.

SixFive gave it a 6.5 ......interesting. :SIB

How would you compare in to The Departed?

totally different movie. Departed was an 8 to 8.5. I would say a good target audience for this movie would be fans of the Departed as long as you don't go in expecting it to be that good.

they technically didn't make it together and shot the dinner scene at different times. they didn't even see each other once during shooting. but it was a great flick

"the bunker"
have "departed" on dvd and haven`t watched it because i can`t believe matt damon or marky mark as leading men/hero types(you have to at least shave to be believable as a bad ass)....probably never will....

on the other hand,i have "no country for old men" on dvd and am very anxious to see this one....

imho, much better than HEAT. They meshed well.

Believe it or not, Mark "Marky Mark" Wahlberg is a hell of an actor. He's one of my favorites now, and his character, Sergeant Digman is fantastic. Damon is also a great actor. The Departed is much, much better than no country.

then you need to see the ridiculous "shooter".....

just can`t watch a guy that looks like a teenager as a hero-type....and looks aside,mark can`t act his way out of a paperbag,imo...

Yea, GW....... Nicholson's role alone is worth watching The Departed.

:nono: on you for skipping any Scorsese movie.

:firing:

If u skipped all Scorsese movies, u would have missed (off top of my head)

Taxi Driver
Raging bull
Goodfellas
Casino
The Aviator
Color of Money
Cape Fear
& more :eek: Gangs of NY, etc.....

:mj17: bad weasel
