Thought this movie was excellent. Very gripping story and great acting. Jack Nicholson is a complete f***ing fruitloop.
Pretty intense move going experience.
Go see it at the cinema for sure, definitely worth it for all you cinema haters out there.


Thoughts?

i saw fearless ... it was pretty cool, a bit weak on plot i guess, but entertaining nevertheless, always fun watching jet li choregraphed fights

The Departed, compared to the Hong Kong original (Infernal Affairs), how is it?... assuming some peeps here are seen Infernal Affairs. A friend of mine was wanting to know.

I went and saw this movie last night and it is the best movie I have seen in ages. Its just a f***ing cool movie, so many funny lines in it from nicholson, marky mark and alec baldwin. But the funnies are a back seat to the awesome story line.

Go see this movie fo shizzle, best movie in ages.

h8 cinemas :D

i also saw fearless the other night... agree with dice... good fight scenes, weak story. the underlying chinese government propaghanda is particularly weak... like chinese movies need the government approval stamp or something these days :/ hero also suffered from this.

however i also just watched shaolin soccer last night which was suprisingly funny... even though the majority of the humour is simple slapstick. no taint of enforced idealism though :D

HO!

I've seen Infernal Affairs, it had a very good storyline but it didnt really have snappy dialogue.

I saw Little Miss Sunshine last night it was brilliant. One of the best movies I've seen in a long, long time. Highly recommended.

Just saw this movie. It really doesnt have alot in common with the original HK film other than the basic storyline. The acting is excellent, lots of stuff going on so that you never get bored. Being a Scorcese film there is excessive amounts of violence, swearing and claret but not as much as Goodfellas.

Very good filum 8/10.
