The Departed (2006) 7/10

Starring : Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen
Director : Martin Scorsese
Running Time : 146 mins

You'll find the ultimate in violent French farce in this remake of Infernal Affairs. DiCaprio plays an undercover cop who has infiltrated Nicholson's mob, while Damon is working for Nicholson within the police force.

This isn't Scorsese at his best, but this is still a pretty good film. DiCaprio is actually very good, although Nicholson was a little underused for my liking. There was something not quite right in the editing of the film, it felt rushed and not up to the standards usually found in Scorsese's work.
