I finally watched The Departed yesterday. I have to say that I really don't see what the big deal is. I think Martin Scorcese is one of the most over-rated directors out there. I'll admit that it is my favorite Scorcese film, but that's not saying much, and I definitely don't think it's worthy of a best picture nod. The acting was good, but I think Leo's best actor nomination for Blood Diamond is more deserved. Final verdict: 7 our of 10 stars.

Matt Damon!
Jenny's inability to recognize that Martin Scorcese is one of the greatest directors of the modern era (anyone who actually knows ANYTHING about movies agrees), as well as the fact that she thinks The Departed is his best movie, has made me lose whatever respect I might have had for her.
Scorcese blows.
Scorcese rocks!
