One of the last movie i seen was "The Departed" (Los infiltrados). This is a movie of 2006 and won the oscar award the same year for best movie, best director among others. The movie director is Martin Scorsese a very famous guy and he has made a bunch of great movies like Gangs of new York and the cast is impressive: Leonardo DiCaprio, Jack Nicholson, etc. so everything in this movie is big, expensive, very hollywoody and made for the great audiences.
But no everything is so great... because this movie has a dark side that no many people knows about it: Is a remake of a 2002 oriental movie whos name is "Infernal Affairs", really identical but the original one is much shorter, much more inteligent and fast, without the multimillionar cast, famous director and hollywood fancyness. So since the time i see the original i just don't like the remake so much… is sad that Scorsese’s first oscar come from a remake, he has some much better movies. And other think that i don’t like is the fact that if you are going to film a remake, at least give some credits to the original, but I thing that the fact that Departures is a remake will affect the admiration towards Scorsese and his work.
I like Scorsese's movies, "The departed" it's a good film to view. The action carry out in a impressionable way: scenes, camera takes and drama are really envolving. I'm really get a shock for the way at the film finish.
