I went to see The Departed this afternoon. Wow. It’s a long movie, with a great soundtrack and fine actors. Marky Mark and Matt Damon provide authentic Boston accents and DiCaprio’s was pretty good too, but Vera Farmiga’s came and went so often I was trying to figure out where she was supposed to be from. I forgave her because she showed off her bum.

Spoilers after the break…

What the hell was that, Hamlet? Not at all a feel-good movie, was it?

Seriously, I was underprepared for and overwhelmed by how good Mark Wahlberg was. The final twist was the first time that I can remember actually "woo"ing during a movie at a movie theatre.

Wahlberg was pretty good, even among that cast. And there were a few moments that made me "woo" during this film. The final moments of Martin Sheen, for instance.

So, I'd probably like it. *adds it to the list*
