The Departed

So, I finally got around to watching The Departed this afternoon -- while unironically wearing a "Kiss Me, I'm Irish" t-shirt -- and it was really good. In fact, had I seen it in 2006, I might have said it was the best movie of the year.

It is, officially, the best movie I've seen so far in 2007, if that helps.

And, for the record, until today, I never noticed that Matt Damon and Leonardo DeCaprio sort of look alike.

Freelance Cynic: Yep, it's uncanny. Although, I think it worked to their advantage in this particular movie.

Mad: It is on DVD. That's actually how I watched it -- in the comfort of my own living room.

Scarlet: I was the same way. But it was definitely worth the 2.5 hours!

wasn't the best movie i've ever seen (Goodfellas makes this look bad) but it was a super flick. Definitely a look-see at home.
