The Departed

Martin Scorsese's triumphant, Oscar-winning return to gangster turf stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a cop working undercover to bring down psychopathic Boston mob boss Jack Nicholson... who plants his own mole - Matt Damon - in the police department. Everyone's on top of their (cat-and-mouse) game in this blistering remake of the Hong Kong thriller Infernal Affairs.

The Big Man is back. Or should that be: the Big Men are back. For two heavyweights of US filmaking, Scorsese and Nicholson, unite here to produce an absolute masterpiece. Avert your eyes for seconds and you may miss several vital bits of information, such is the cracking pace. DiCaprio excels as a jittery police mole, never far from being discovered whilst Damon is suitably loathsome as a smarmy bent Boston cop. This filmv mesmerises, fascinates and thrills in heavy doses. Go watch it. Now.
