Last night I watched the Departed (again) I really like that movie.

But per some of our earlier convos and hong kong.. did you know it's a re-make of a (legendary at its time) hong kong movie Infernal Affairs?

I personally prefer the departed over infernal affairs, I think culturally its more relevant to me, and it's also an extremely polished movie. Like, I reckon that Infernal Affairs had to "invent" this story.

But the departed got to take all that work and "perfect" it.. which IMO they did. But.. both are excellent, and I recommend both bigly.

Departed was great. (Edit: spoilers ahead, sorry this is your warning) Even though he’s a narcissistic manipulative douchebag, I actually liked when Matt Damon’s char turned on Jack’s char

The last thing he said as he gunned him down was “RAT PRICK!” And it’s true. He’s just following the code. Jack’s char was technically a snitch, even if he was a mafia boss, snitches get stitches
