The Departed vs. Infernal Affairs… Fight!
I finally got to see The Departed at the theatre and I enjoyed it, but in my own honest opinion, I believe Infernal Affairs to be the better film. It made me feel for the characters more, contained the same impressive story, and did it all in a shorter running time. Not that I dislike movies that are long, but The Departed did feel kind of long to me, and admittedly that could have been because I had already seen Infernal Affairs and I basically knew what was coming up.
I also felt that Infernal Affairs had some better dialogue, but how much of that is from the translation or the original HK script, I don’t know.
