Have you guys seen the Turkish (?) Extended Dying Shooting .. "Version" of The Departed? It's a definite must-see and a must-react short scene! Will send the l*nk if you wish!

"American Gangster" staring Denzel Washington is another good one 👍

@@xl081 once they've seen LA Confidential, Man on Fire, and they've seen Gladiator, so...cool!

@genghisgalahad8465 negative, idk why you telling me movies they seen 🤣

Yes!!!! Finally!!! You're gonna love it. Watched it 2× because once was like speed reading lol🙃

Talk about foreshadowing 😂

And then Mark Walburg literally becomes "the other guy" With that movie "the Other Guys"

They totally missed that line. What a shame. It's gold.

Mark Wahlberg was honestly so good in this film

​@@AllOfTheHallowsHoly s#!+, how did I not put that together.

I'd put the death in A Place Beyond the Pines up there too. Not to spoil who I'm talking about....

I still shutter when I see it, knowing how shocking it is.

Every time I watch this movie, I always hope Leo doesn't get shot. But I have disappointed 58 times. 😢

Do you shutter island at it?😉​@@user-zj8fp6dw7x

I saw it in a theater. There was a lot of nervous laughter.

@@ricarleite Me too. I remember people gasping.

I saw the original, Infernal Affairs so I was not shocked..but still a good movie.

Not really when you think about the fact that it makes Costello look like a fool for not figuring out that Billy’s the mole. I’d argue that Billy’s counterpart in Infernal Affairs, Chan goes through way more and you can believe it, since he’s been undercover for A DECADE, unlike Billy who’s been only a year.

He's the ultimate protector, it bleeds through every reaction video

I would too. I mean just look at those guns! 💪

such a shocking moment

Have seen this movie over 15 times. I had first time suspicions Dignam was another crime family rat.

@@NikkiStevenReact If you go scrub through this again Steven, you will see everyone that dies, there are X's near or behind or under them. It's so subtle, but so crazy when you see it.

He didn’t submit this performance for judging. Academy rules prohibit actors from being nominated for 2 performances in the same category, so he entered (and was nominated for) his performance in Blood Diamond.

@@bobcobb3654 he killed it that year

I think Leo’s performance was good here, I liked his character up until that end when he called Matt Damon a homophobic slur then I was happy when he got killed. But anyways, I feel like this role specifically is good but isn’t his best performance, so if he was to get an Oscar for this then it’d feel … weird. I feel like he should’ve gotten one for The Aviator or for Once Upon A Time In Hollywood or maybe even Django Unchained. But not this movie. Just my opinion though.

Pretty sure this year was the start of his campaign for an Oscar, he tried to be in the best movie every year after this and kept just missing out, leading to the memes!

He had already been nominated twice before 2006.@@ciaranconlon84

Oh that's awesome... She edited her ass off in this movie. Loved it!!!

They’ve been working together since college. In fact, they both worked on the edit for the Woodstock movie.

They should definitely watch The Aviator if they haven’t seen it before. That one of my favorite Martin Scorsese films & definitely what I think is one of if not the best Leonardo DiCaprio role

I’ve seen all the movies you’ve mentioned except Raging Bull. Might check it out if it looks interesting

@@packedentertainment2866i think you’ll like it. let us know what you think of it whenever you do. it’s solid.

It's implied he was gay.

Eh, I feel like they only gave it to him after screwing him over for Goodfellas, which I think he deserved an Oscar for more.

Ehh, it’s not as good as you think when you consider the whole plot of this movie. And Billy's (Leo) death makes the movie more convoluted than it needs to be, especially when adding the whole Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson) is an informant plotline. Now don't get me wrong, the elevator scene was extremely shocking and even better than in Infernal Affairs, the movie that this was adapted from. But at the same time, it doesn't make any sense. I mean, how is Trooper Barrigan (the one to killed Billy) a mole? The movie establishes that Frank Costello met Colin (Damon) as a kid, but when did Frank met Barrigan? And WHY was Barrigan doing this? Like there's no foreshadowing of Barrigan's motives. And yeah, maybe Frank did this to cover up his bases, and added a few moles in, just in case one mole got outed or didn't make it far enough into the police force to be useful; but WHY does Barrigan know about Colin, but Colin doesn't know about Barrigan? I mean they were in the SAME training class, for crying out loud. Did Barrigan get turned later? If we the audience are gonna go with the assumption that Barrigan's the mole and knows about what Colin's been doing and maybe Barrigan was only planted just to keep an eye on Colin, HOW does Barrigan know that Frank was an FBI informant? Colin, who has reached one of the HIGHEST RANKS of the State Police, didn't even know about it and only found out, due to a SINGLE journal entry from Captain Queenan. But that's because Billy told him, and Billy knew because some literal random drugged-up dude knew that he interrogated, because of LITERALLY WHATEVER REASON. I mean what's that dude's story? Now even if Barrigan WAS assigned by Frank to be a mole and keep tabs on Colin and that somehow he also snuck into the room and found Queenan's journal to learn that Frank's also a rat, in the film, Barrigan literally says, "Costello was gonna sell us to the FBI.". HOW would Barrigan know that? And WHY would even the FBI care? If Frank Costello was the FBI's rat and Colin and Barrigan were helping him, wouldn't Colin want to help Frank? Like would the FBI be psyched that Colin was doing the ground-work for them (I mean he keeps Frank out of trouble so they could keep giving him information.)? Also, the whole FBI plot with Frank being a rat, is only in The Departed BECAUSE of the whole bases around Whitey Bulger (who Costello's character is based on), which I can understand. But if I'm being honest, it really doesn't add anything to the film and would only make the plot sound more complicated than it needs to be. I guess Martin Scorsese, the writers, or studios thought that one of the themes should be what Mr French said, "It's a nation of f***ing rats.". Plus, once Barrigan kills Billy, then Brown, and then tell Colin that they have to stick together (But WHY exactly, if they're the only moles left?), Colin kills Barrigan? And for what reason? You see in Infernal Affairs, it makes sense, since Chan (who's suppose to be Billy's counterpart) calls the police to meet him at the building where he meets Lau (Colin's counterpart), so when Chan brings Lau downstairs, he's literally bringing him into police custody. Lau then kills Inspector B (Barrigan's counterpart), because he needs a fall-guy, since Chan already told the cops he has the mole in custody. But in The Departed, Billy hasn't told anyone about Colin, not even Trooper Brown. So now that Billy and Brown are dead, there really is no reason to kill Barrigan. They really could have both gone home and left those two there. Also, if you pay attention to the scene when Colin tries to cover the mess, you have to ask yourself HOW Colin would come up with a story that would explain this to the police. He says Barrigan attacked him, but wouldn't they tell from forensics that Billy punched him? I mean, they don't even give us Colin's complete made-up story to the police for why he was there. It's just all not coming together.

@@osmanyousif7849 You wrote this whole essay for nothing. Let people enjoy things.

@@osmanyousif7849 You way, way, way overthought that. Nothing wrong with people enjoying what they enjoy.

@@michaelbrewer2069 , it is wrong since we are meant to by this whole concept of Billy's character being undercover and the stress it's putting him through, yet Costello never figuring it out, as well as never telling Colin that he added other moles in. Heck, they could've cut the whole FBI informant plot and I'd say the film would have been much better.

highly entertaining

Yeah, I live on Cape Cod & most of the accents in this film were spot on. Matt Damon, as usual, sounds like an upper-middle class Cambridge kid who wants people to think he's a hard ass from Southie. Alec Baldwin sounds like a New Yorker doing an impression of Marky Mark for an SNL skit. Come to think of it, even Baldwin's New York accent is exaggerated - he's like the stereotypical Long Islander who's trying too hard to sound like he's from Brooklyn or the Bronx.

@@goreyfantod5213 Agreed. His accent is horrible. He was the only really weak part of the movie. I actually grew up just off the cape in the Lakeville, Middleboro, Taunton area. Love the Cape - especially the islands. The movie was really realistic in so many ways. They used the names of the actual towns, buildings, streets (Route 128), etc. I also love the fact that they understood that the Irish controlled South Boston whereas the Italians controlled Providence. I've been in Florida for 20 years and this film brings me right back home.

Until Killers Of The Flower Moon sweeps. Talking from the the future (After the Oscars)

Nope, for Goodfellas Joe Pesci won an oscar, and gave a legendary speech!

Didn’t DeNiro and Pesci won Oscars for Scorsese films?

@@packedentertainment2866Oppenheimer has it wrapped up already or it should. Lilly Gladstone will probably win though. I’d honestly be happy with either, but I think Poor Things is the only film that can upset Oppenheimer.

It was the first Scorcese film to win best picture and best director. But Robert Deniro,Joe Pesci, Ellen Burstyn and Thelma Shoonmaker all won Oscars for Scorcese films before this

They're from California so they're not used to the way we talk out here in New England. It's a hard life and we're a proud people.

Yeah, to be honest, Infernal Affairs was better.

So Martin Scorsese’s best film is an Asian rip off, can confirm 😅😅😂

​@DannyBedo "The Departed" is great, but I think "Goodfellas " is a masterpiece.

​@@DannyBedoyep, he took it from the hong Kong China movie infernal affairs. Its common knowledge.

I had heard something about that. Did the Hong Kong movie makers go out of their way to drop an "N" bomb gratuitously in the opening monologue, and then proceed to have ONE black character in the whole movie (Anthony Edwards, I think)? And that character is a police officer. I guess Marty S. wanted to establish early that Frank was a bad guy, and racist, too. But it seemed unnecessary and, like I said, gratuitous. Good movie, though.

Which he was also great in.

Leo didn’t submit it, the studio does the submissions

I’m not going to lie, not only Leo’s character death caught me off guard, but left me utterly jaw dropped. I originally thought that he was going to make it by the end of the film and get a happy ending. Boy I was dead wrong.

It caught everyone off guard. Probably the most surprsing death in movie history.

It wasn’t even realistic at all, especially how all of it could’ve been avoided if Billy’s plan wasn’t as ridiculous as it was. I mean what kind of cop would tell the mall to meet him at the building with no back up or evidence with him?

i didn't have that reaction because i knew it was gonna happen because saw the original movie before Martin did the American remake

Leo always kills it, he's awesome

Cant wait for peaky blinders reactions to come to you tube. Cilllian Murphys performance in that show is epic.

Leo killed it... but it also killed Leo. ;)

If I’m being honest, I really wasn’t a fan of the editing in this movie. Pacifically because it does a bad job showing the passage of time. The opening sequence is a good example of this, as I actually thought that Billy and Colin were in training together when it actually was meant to happen several months apart.

felt like things were calming down at that point of the movie and then bang!!!!

Well a nomination, wahlberg didn’t win but was the only one nominated which is crazy considering he wasn’t close to alot in this film

@@vvthetalentlessduo6976 I did look it up once. Something to do with vote splitting. Standing out in a film with Nicholson DiCaprio and Damon was an accomplishment. Had we known at the time it would be Jack Nicholsons last MAJOR film (think he did a couple comedy roles afterwards) I think he would of been voted and most likely won.

been an awesome couple of weeks

@@jeffmartinaguirretamayo1475exactamente!

Arguable. I found Infernal Affairs to be far superior.

Infernal Affairs = Overrated

When Costello dropped the gun, wasn’t that an accident and they just left it in? That whole scene is so brilliant.

Nope..... As told to GQ by Scorsese himself, the ending change was a request from the studio because they wanted someone alive for a possible sequel/franchise. American audiences "handle" dark endings all the time.....smh

@@brianjones8432 Which makes no sense since Infernal Affairs managed a whole trilogy.

Leo was MUCH better in Wall Street and Revenant though. Also my absolute favourite Leo acting was in Django. He was okay in this.

​@@nyuszicsibAgree to disagree, I always thought his performance in Departed was his best. Although, Revenant and Wall Street are definitely top 5 for me in terms of performance.

@@nyuszicsib in the revenant he is totally overrated, so is the movie. His performance here is mutch better, so in shutter island or Wolf of Wallstreet.

@@nyuszicsibi agree he was better in wolf clearly, I mean that was an all time performance but was also incredible in departed

Id say unfairly unrewarded instead of underrated

I wouldn’t say underrated. He’s literally one of the biggest movie stars/actors of all time along with Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, Tom Cruise & George Clooney. Although the last decade has shown that movie stars are starting to go extinct, which doesn’t mean the actors/actresses are dying but rather that they feel less special when they go on streaming shows/movies & when their shows/movies go straight to streaming cause then they don’t look so big anymore. Also because of streaming, now some people (the newer generation) don’t even decide to go to the theaters & instead waits for everything which is killing the movie business & is erasing movie stars cause then studios see “oh, you can’t sell tickets anymore in the 2020s, has to be your fault, so you’re no longer a big movie star anymore” which is just sad. If you looked at killers of the flower moon, it wasn’t doing too good until awards season created a boost in it’s ticket sales MONTH AFTER it had came out already, I saw it when it first came out & I was shocked that there were barely anyone there when it’s a freaking Leonardo DiCaprio movie & a Martin Scorsese & Robert DeNiro movie for crying out loud. Luckily it was doing way better when awards season helped it gain traction & now it’s been sold out almost every week in the theater near me which is wild cause where were they before?

He really should’ve gotten a nod for killers of the flower moon. He was excellent

Now I wanna see the Turkish (?) Extended Dying Version of The Departed!

Eh, if I’m being honest, I thought Billy’s plan to take Colin down was very absurd. I mean, ask yourself this: You're an undercover cop who's been hunting down a mole for quite some time, causing you to suffer a lot of stress and trouble. BUT SUDDENLY, you're given a bountiful amount of clues or evidence to learn and proof the mole was right in front of you. Now do you: Option A - Immediately take said evidence to the police station so the mole can be outed as the traitor (maybe even playing a recording of them confessing their crimes to further humiliated them), and will be arrested. Option B - DON'T DO THAT. And do the dumbest things ever like.... 1. Leave a trail that tips the mole off that you know they're the mole. 2. Tell the mole to meet you at a rooftop, despite it risking the mole getting the upper hand on you. 3. Don't call for the whole cavalry to meet you there, let alone the people who can actually back you up. 4. Don't bring any of your evidence with you, LITERALLY. 5. Say you're gonna march him to the PD, despite not doing any of the 4 things I listed. Not to sound like a downer, but Billy's actions in the movie just make him look like an idiot.

Austin Powers "Who throws a shoe?"

He was quoting Austin powers

Agree its top 5. The town is up there for me too. Something about Boston crime movies I really enjoy.

Infernal Affairs is a Hong Kong movie, but yes it's amazing too.
