The Departed - Infernal Affairs Remake


A few years back, a cunning Irish mafia boss organized a small group of young and bright men from his crew to infiltrate the Massachusetts Police Academy as cadets. Their aim is to rise eventually within the esteemed ranks of the city's police department, to serve as the eyes and ears of their Mafia chief. While somewhere else, a brilliant cadet was assigned with an equally dangerous task: infiltrate the Irish mob headed by the man who sent his own DPA's to the Boston Police. Years later, one of the rogue cadets succeeded and became a police official with a torn allegiance to his job and to the criminal mastermind that put him there. While the other is the right hand man of the Mafia Boss, who finds his professional duties blurred with his current state. But new clues have led to unfortunate revelations and when both sides realize they're being watched by the enemy, it's now all just a matter of time before the secret is out and someone's cover is blown. The conclusion will definitely come to a bloody end. This movie is really good because the characters life are interwoven with each other and the psychological barriers they have created for their new identities begins to consume them. Definitely a must see for crime movie addicts!!!
