Re: Most disappointing movie ever (high expectations, but flopped)
[ QUOTE ]
The Departed is horribly overrated.
If Scorcese would have left out the female psychologist COMPLETELY the movie would have been exactly the same. -3 points just for adding pointless romance and an extra 30 minutes of fluff. And don't get me started about the ending.

I LOVE Scorcese, and must tell you I barely remember The Departed because I was too busy vomiting through the whole thing.
We've been through this before here at 2+2, but one more time:
This movie sucked. The screenplay was moronic ("jeez guys--who's the rat? We KNOW it's not the former cop..."), and Nicholson was just plain sad.
The end was atrocious. I thought maybe nobody had noticed that, so I figured I'd say it, just in case it'd never been said before.
