The Departed **
Martin Scorsese, 2006
US
@ home on DVD

This seemed a bit less outrageous on a second go-round, particularly Jack Nicholson. Maybe because it was on a tiny TV, maybe because there weren't any surprises or letdowns. I'm still baffled as to why Scorsese thought he needed to say something and can't be content to just let this be a fun movie. The sociology seems to me the weakest part all along the way.
