My father called me this morning and told me it was one of the best movies he has seen in years. He said Jack was classic!

Wil,
I saw it last night.......one word AMAZING!....I though it would be OK with the great cast and all, BUT I was amazed at how many twists and turns it had......Worth the price of a ticket AND I willbuy the DVD when it comes out.......2 Thumbs UP:toast:

i was listening to radio yesterday at work and they had this movie guy on and he said it was the best crime movie in years...he couldnt stop talking about it...said it was a must see at the theatres...

Thoroughly enjoyable. Classic Scorcese.

isn't that the Hong Kong movie ?

its like remaking The Sixth Sense , where everybody knows the ending...

An old friend of mine Mark Rolston, I believe has a nice part in it. Thought it was about the Boston mob.

jasin4000 · Oct 7, 2006

looks like a great movie with that cast., actually is it me or it seems like a group of good movies just came out or are coming out shortly

Very entertaining rollercoaster ride of a movie. LOVED Mark Wahlburg and Leonardo's performances the best, not so much for Matt Damon though it was his character i disliked...<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

Jack's character, Frank Costello, is based on Whity Bulger, so that angle is also interesting!

Yeah, the original script was written by a Hong Kong screenwriter and the actually title is called "Internal Affair".

Jack refused to wear a Redsox cap as called for in the script. He is lifelong Yankee fan.

Good film BUT...

Good Film with Many twists BUT By NO MEANS As GoodAs GOODFELLAS Or RAGING BULL, Or TAXI Driver........Still would Recomend The Film Sine it's Scorcese's Best in recent years . The Whole idea Of JACK Being A ................. really makes The Ending plot line Just stupid.........The movie is basically saying , The Whole business of Cops n robbers doesn't make Sense and its a merry Go round ......Worth seeing , but Really a stupid concept !

Entertaining film...worth the 10 bux...

It's a remake of Infernal Affairs, which is the Hong Kong flick you're talking about. I'm pumped to see The Departed even though I know how it'll play out. Been a Scorcese fan for years and that includes his other flicks that aren't crime related.

Paterno · Oct 9, 2006

I saw it tonight......AMAZING! Jack, Damon, Leonardo, and Wahlberg were all great.

It got a 93% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes which is high. Critics love it. Saying it might be the front runner for an Oscar for best picture.

I saw the Hong Kong version, Infernal Affairs, and loved it. I will be seeing this one and it should be good.

Rev_Al · Oct 9, 2006

heard the same thing...great flick, & Jack was spectacular

MrCleo · Oct 9, 2006

I've heard nothing but good things from friends who have seen it
