Re: New Scorsese trailer (Departed: Jack Nicholson, Damon, DiCaprio)
[ QUOTE ]
Did anyone see the trailer for The Departed that was showing in theaters this weekend?
It's Scorsese's remake of the Hong Kong action movie Infernal Affairs. Holy crap, it looks amazing. Amazing. Potentially Scorsese's best since Goodfellas if not better . Jack Nicholson looks to be having a hilariously good time playing a Scorsese gangster, and DiCaprio, Damon, and Mark Wahlberg appear to be no slouches either.
I loved the plot in the HK version, but for once this looks like a case where the American remake is even better. I am stoked.

Nah, this looks good, but I don't think the intensity of Liotta, De Niro and Pesci in Goodfellas will be matched in this or any other gangster film.
