: The Departed

Director: Martin Scorsese

This is an incredible film. It’s long but doesn’t feel like it. In fact, it’s paced just right. There’s lots of character development, but unlike most stories, it doesn’t feel boring but essential to the puzzles of the characters. The acting is superb, and the action is extremely sudden and violent and bloody, gritty with realism. The ending is quite terrible, and I mean that in the grimest sense. Just an amazing film that deserves a ton of Academy Awards.
