The departed

So I'm gonna pull a Murray, and recommend this movie to all the adults on the board.  I saw this on friday, and it blew me away.

go see this movie if you are into crime dramas, or mob movies.

or like good things in general

Do not see this movie if language or violence with lots and lots and lots of gore offends you, or if you are impressionable.  the violence in this movie is absolutely brutal, however, always done in concordance with the story, no senseless car chases.

Expect a few gold statues for this movie.

I agree.  I saw this movie last week and it was one of the best I have seen in a while.  It's a GREAT mob movie and unlike any other I have ever seen ..... dealing with the Irish mafia instead of the typical Italian.

I'll give it 4 1/2 stars.

One warning though besides the gore and language ....... This movie is kind of long, 2.5 hours.  I wasn't expecting that so it kind of made the ending drag on and on.  I am not saying the ending is bad, it's just when you expect a movie to be an hour and a half long, I felt like I was waiting for the climax and ending to happen the whole last hour.

right, you think you are at the ending, and boom, you just got to the good stuff, and it all twists and turns from there!

by the way, KU, the cell phone call was by far one of the most intense scenes ive seen in a while.
