Review of The Departed (2006) by Raven D — 31 Jan 2015
Probably the most intense movie I have ever watched.10 minutes into it I thought to myself, "when is this going to calm down?"Never a dull moment,but somehow doesn´t feel rushed.Brutal pacing,extraordinary casting and great acting from every single character involved (except Anthony Anderson,who doesn´t hinder it anyway).A very cool and simple story (or mirror stories) with interesting undertones of identity,father role issues,and duality.
Flawless and tight direction,editing is excellent.The intelligent use of the excellent soundtrack in the scenes is one of the best I have seen on film.Perfect script with truly great and captivating dialogue.
