The Departed

Joel and I found a movie that we both suspected could be enjoyable, The Departed. I know, calling a cops and Irish mob movie with a climbing body count enjoyable may be a stretch but we sometimes like the action flick. This movie is studded with some very good actors and tells a tale that I'd not call predictable. Just when I thought I had an idea where it was going, it would take a pretty abrupt and irrevocable turn in a new direction. It all made sense (in a cops and mobsters kind or way) but it kept me guessing. I can't recommend it to everyone but I liked it.
