The Departed / USA / 2006

I think I’m the least enthusiastic here on Marty’s latest effort, which felt a bit too light for my taste (and that’s fine. I’m greedy and still expect more from Mr. Scorsese, which I don’t believe will happen at this point). What I did enjoy were the performances; this is the first time I’ve seen DiCaprio in a portrayal that did not make me feel as though he were playing dress-up (or had grown facial hair for the first time), and I appreciated that, along with Wahlberg’s filthy mouth.
Also, on an unrelated note, a surprise appearance by David Byrne in the audience.
