  • In my first film comparison, I place #InfernalAffairs and its American remake #TheDeparted back to back to examine their individual styles and focuses. Hong Kong Cinema is certainly very different from Hollywood and these two films are arguably the greatest example of that.

    Watching them both is a real insight into how films are crafted

      Very true, teasing out the differences between versions is always intriguing. Considering how The Departed is one of the best remakes of all time, that made it a great candidate for critiquing.

    Most intriguing part and thought provoking is the suggestion that there are more infiltrators than merely the main two protagonists on both sides.

    Asian cinema is always thrill.They have this slick way of being clever in a way u.s movies can't.Shootouts and fight sequences in Asian cinema are far more enjoyable.
    Scoresesse cannot be argued with though his use of the same song in multiple films (you know the one I mean) is annoying his genius is unmatched against anyone in Hollywood.

    In my opinion hate brings different things to people for instance what Sergeant Staff Digman did to Matt Damon's character in the end if its real ending it would be sad but if the part 2 was another idea it would be I think psychological based. I think in this movie Matt Damon's character is really traumatized by the crimes did by F. Costello

      That's an interesting idea, Sullivan coming to terms with what he did while having to watch his back all the time.
      Though Scorsese has never really done sequels, he's always focused on standalone stories.

      @@CainageCritique hahha yeah Wahlberg said the part 2 pitch meeting didn't go well. For me. I'd like it to be like that more of a psychological thriller type with action.
