Default Re: The Departed: Martin Scorsese\'s new film

The scene where Dicaprio and Damon both pick up their cell phones without speaking (which got a really big laugh in my theater) was right out of Heat. And indeed the whole feel of it was Mannish. But Scorsese has a much better sense of humor.

Agreed. Mann takes himself too seriously. However, I felt the first three quarters of The Departed was brilliant, and then it just fell apart at the end, much like Collateral.
