A Review Of The Current Git Film The Departed
Released in two thousand six, the departed is one of the conventional mafia police war movies, but this one has a twist. The story is based on the rivalry between the Irish American mafias and the police and this time there are actually two agents who are busy in double crossing their organizations. One does it for the bad guys and the other for the good ones.
This story is a summary of betrayals and thrills all coming together under the umbrella of the traditional rivalry between the mafias and law enforcing agencies. Similar movie genre always seem to depict a cop integrating within the criminals to identify and capture their heads and bosses. In this case the twist is that the mafia prepares their lad to land in the midst of the law enforcers to spy for them.
Billy is basically depicted as the central good cop character whose family connections with the mafia land him in the job of spying on the cartels and the bad guys. He is quick enough to capitalize on his prevalent connections within the mafia and gains unsurpassed respect as a mob leader. This helps him greatly in getting the gist of all the criminal planning being done and helps him tip off the fellow cops in order to stop the execution of those plans.
While Billy is busy in spying on the Mafia, Collin Sullivan is the mafia installed spy in the law enforcing agency. Like Billy, Collin also is sharp and moves quickly up the police ranks to become a respectable special investigation unit officer. This unit is the actual operative one against the Irish American cartels receiving tips from Billy. Collins unique character of double playing the police as well as the mafia is perhaps the only thing that makes this movie stand out of the normal gangster type ones.
As the film progresses, it becomes evident to the mafia and police chiefs that they have black sheeps within their lineups. This is the point where the movie seriously gains some momentum and both the double agents start to unveil the identity of each other in order to stay clean in their records. This is the moment when the human emotions comes in full play and the choices left with both the double agents is either to turn themselves in or to play their mates and colleagues into the shackles of treachery.
The last half of the movie is something worth looking forward too. Although it might not be on the most action filled thrillers but the intensity and depth of the drama is absolutely worth watching. In these scenes Billy and Collin move toward a head to head collision based on the Collins discovery that Billy is actually working for the cops and is about to turn the whole gang in.
Billy is seen going after Collin in order to convince him to leave the gang and use his immunity in order to get a normal life back. This argument and trail ends up with Billy getting shot at by Collin which results in his death.
The departed also focuses on the strength of good versus bad. The whole film has the capacity to involve the audience within the story line. The movie is good drama with some great action parts.
