Review of The Departed (2006) by Bob B — 27 Jul 2018

This movie is WILD. This movie will give you ANXIETY. This movie is HYSTERICAL. This movie has some of my favorite actors with BOSTON ACCENTS. I really REALLY enjoyed this film. It was fantastically complicated, astonishingly Irish American, and astoundingly funny.

The movie follows along to characters with intertwining stories. Leonardo DiCaprio plays an undercover cop, and Matt Damon plays a cop snitching for his father-figures gang leader Jack Nicholson. Ultimately, the two are playing equal but opposite roles. Leo faces the pain-staking reality of what it means to take on a different identity, while Damon struggles to hold a calm cool composure when attempting to protect is father's business.

As the two realize that there are "rats" on either side, the plot takes a more dangerous, tramatic turn. In attempts the expose each other, they leave a bloody trail. Needless to say, right when things seem to turn out good for our leading role, Leo, there are plot twists out of left field.

This filmography of the movie is quirky. With quick shots, scoring that weaves in and out, and biblical references, this style of filming and editing seems to remind you of the quirkiness of the Irish American culture in Boston. These actors take pride in enacting the aggressive Irish personality, and it's a treat to watch them do so. With a witty script, action packed adventure, and fantastic actors, this movie does not fail to give you ALL the feels.This movie is WILD. This movie will give you ANXIETY. This movie is HYSTERICAL.
