Yes ... I know, its been out for ages... but watched it for first time last night.

What a great movie. If you havent seen it yet, do yourself a favour and mark it down as a "Must see"

If you can handle subtitles check out Infernal Affairs, the film The Departed is based on.

I hadn't realised it was a remake until I was watching it at the cinema.  It was shortly after watching Internal Affairs and I was surprised how strikingly alike the two films are.  Happens too often these days, no need for remakes when the originals are still perfectly good.

I'd still recommend watching either though, great story and both adaptations good.
