As many of you well know, "The Departed" is a remake of a 2002 film from Hong Kong called "Mou gaan dou" / "Internal Affairs".
I have to say that I enjoyed the original movie much better than this remake. Many of the original classic lines from the film did make it to this Hollywood knock-off such as, cutting up Leonardo DiCaprio and feeding him to the poor.
The method of passing messages involving the use of Morse code in the original far surpasses the method of using a cell phone text message as well.
If you really did enjoy "The Departed," then I highly suggest renting or purchasing the original. If you enjoyed the original, then I would not disappointed yourself by watching this remake.
