great movie! this movie sort of has a ying/yang element to it and you'll have to watch the movie to see what i mean. it's about an undercover cop who takes down a mobster that has an inside man looking for the undercover cop. great cast too. grade: A-

Haven't seen in the theatre but looking forward to seeing it on video. I think it gets released this week or next.

| You guys should check out the original HK flick, Infernal Affairs which Departed was based on. I think Infernal Affairs in some way is better than the Departed. |

| Had mixed reviews on this one from friends, so wasn't sure if we'd like it or not. We really enjoyed it though, like a double game of cat and mouse |
