The Departed

Actors: Leonardo Dicaprio, Jack Nicholson, Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen

Rating:  8 out of 10, superbly acted, well written/directed - sequencing sometimes failed and the director jumped around a little too much.  Dicaprio still is not convincing in a tough guy role but Wahlberg has definitely grown up.  Sheen’s Boston accent is overdone but Nicholson is in his element.

MVP: Dicaprio who is usually not one of my favorites is very effective as Costigan
