how I enjoyed The Departed against insurmountable odds.
it was a rainy sunday morning, 4 hours of sleep, still intoxicated from the night before, getting to the WRONG theater (there are two chelsea clearviews on 23rd st)... and oh yeah, and that whole hollywood remake of a modern day hong kong classic thing.
and you know what? I liked it a lot. and I think it'll do well because of the star-studded cast and the action and violence.
for those who have seen (the original) infernal affairs: don't go into it thinking "oh this is a remake of infernal affairs." right, I realize it IS a remake but they do change things up slightly and the film does stand on its own.
for those who haven't seen infernal affairs: go see this, but also see the original.
