Martin Scorsese And His Movie, The DepartedIf there is one movie that is really good, just for the simple fact of all the great actors it has, that movie would have to be The Departed. This is a movie that was directed by Marin Scorsese, and was made back in 2006. The Departed is a crime film that also ended up winning awards, and for many good reasons. This is one of the best movies that I remember seeing in 2006, and I think that it proved that good movies with great stories can still be made today. Not all films have to be teen movies, some of them can actually have a plot.
The Departed takes place in Boston, Massachusetts, and follows the notorious Irish Mob. The boss of this Mob is called Francis Costello, and he is played by Jack Nicholson. During the movie, The Departed, the Mob sends a man to go undercover to become an informant in the Massachusetts State Police department. At the same time, the police send an undercover agent to become part of the Mob. Later on both sides figure out that there is a spy under their noses, and they go out to figure out who it is. The movie is a great suspense movie that will have you on the edge of your seat the whole time. One reason why this movie is so great is because of Jack Nicholson, who always plays a great bad guy. He really brings all his great acting abilities to work in The Departed, and I think that really adds something to this movie that it would have been missing had they had anyone else playing the role. Overall, The Departed is a great movie that you are going to have to watch to understand how great it really is. In fact, if you have not seen this movie, it is one you have to see right away.
I love the movie The Departed so I cannot tell you to go out and rent it. This is a movie that you are going to have to go out and buy. This is because it is a movie that you are going to need in your DVD collection. When a movie has this many big named actors in it, you know it is going to be good. However, this is not your typical thriller movie; it is a lot more than that. That is why this movie won Best Picture, which is a big time award. I have never seen a movie like this, and I have seen a lot of movies in my time. In the end you are not sure who you want to be pulling for, but you know that both sides are being set up; it is cool seeing it from both points of view. If you have not seen this movie, go out and get it tonight because you are going to want to watch it at least two times the first day you get it.
