Comfortably Bored
Reasons The Departed stunk :
- Not enough Alec Baldwin
- Jack Nicholson as someone from Boston
- Scorcese using “Gimme Shelter” by The Rolling Stones. Again.
- Not enough Marky Mark
- They should have kept the original title, Infernal Affairs. It’s a lot less pretentious.
- If I didn’t know any better, I’d say Matt Damon used the same technique to get the girl in Good Will Hunting.
- Oh I get it. They were both Rats in their own right you see, so there’s a Rat that crawls across the railing at the end of the film. Rat. Rat. See? Oh yeh, and the Church is there in the background too in case that wasn’t forced down your throat enough
- Not enough Alec Baldwin
All in all I’d much rather watch the movie where Alec Baldwin and Marky Mark insult each others mothers, tell each other to fuck off, and play with their junk.
I’d ruin the ending and save you all the 2 hours and 20 minutes. But I’ve learned my lesson. I’ll let you all sit through it and see how throwing a couple blood squibs in a movie all of a sudden qualifies it as “Scorcese at his best.”

You JUST learned the lesson that people don’t enjoy having the ending of movies ruined for them?

Not as good as Goodfellas, but still pretty good, fellas.
I thought it was awesome and super entertaining.
