It's fine. There are people who insist it's stupid but who also can't follow it.
>Why Bilbo no just speak to Dignam?
>Why old ladies rude?
>How Dignam is there, him rat too?
Christ...

>>How Dignam is there, him rat too?
How is this a fucking question? Of course he's rat. What do you think the rat running across the window sill at the end is supposed to mean?

It's a good ending but still leaves you feeling flat with the outcome

how was dingman a rat?

He wasn't. This nigga's memeing.

In the films denouement, the rats take turns killing each other. Starting with Damon's character killing Nicholson's, then DiCaprio's slowly killing Damon's, followed by that guy killing DiCaprio's followed by Damon killing that guy. One rat killing the other off. Dingman killing Damon completes the series, follows the pattern. Ergo Dingman is the last rat.

bravo nolan

i love the ending. its like 3 or 4 headshots in 1 minute time. plus who didnt want to see matt damon get shot in the head?

how did it end anyways? I literally walked out of the theatre when they showed the rat walking across the balcony because it completely ruined the fucking tone of the movie.

Infernal affairs is better and the ending works on a whole other emotional level

This.

All Star was a great music choice

He wasn't, but some people are fucking retarded and couldn't follow simple things.

Isn't Internal Affairs a series? I want to watch it, but I remember someone telling me the sequels have the movies turn into a fucking psychological PTSD thriller?

garbage ending, the asspull second rat saving matt damon was even worse tho

infernal affairs is even worse, the whole thing feels like a recap of last weeks episode type deal, I have never seen a more rushed movie

yes it is but the events of the departed are all contained in the first movie

but why WERE those old ladies so rude?

I always thought it was because rumors got out about Damons character being a rat, or at least the events involved in the Dicaprio shooting were very skeptical, so people just didn't want to associate with him. I'm sure you know how catty people can be, especially blue hairs.

That apartment, that view, was an aspirational thing for him for years. Status. Success. When he viewed it he was told he'd be upper middle class by the end of the week. Instead, he's alone there, having lost his pregnant girlfriend, and we see his neighbours won't even let their fucking dog associate with him. It's all been for nothing and he's barely holding things together.

So was Damons character a fag, or did he just take a huge amount of offense to the word? I was rewatching it the other day, and I noticed several times where Damon takes offence:

1.At the end when Dicaprio calls him a two faced faggot over the phone, Damon is clearly disgruntled by it beyond a regular insult.

2. At the beginning with the fireman football, he makes it a point to call the fireman homos several times in front of his friends to the point of it being awkward

3. When he meets with his boss at the golfing range he sort of overstretches his point in telling his boss "Oh yeah, my dick is working overtime! Yes sir!"

4. When his dick doesn't work with his girl (This can be associated with stress from his 2 jobs, or it could be he is gay idk)

Am I looking to much into this, curious to the thoughts you fellas have.

everything pointed for a B- movie. Then that fucking rat cross the scene. Cmon Marty do you have to spell it to me? D+

stop pushing this retarded youtuber theory, Damon was impotent despite having everything while Leo was rock fucking hard despite having nothing.

It has been a while. Did he find out Damon was a rat or was it revenge for getting suspended/fired because of him?

Didn't realize it was a theory, just something I noticed.

It's definitely implied that Damon's character is a closet homosexual.
>see anything you like, Colin?
>oh, I get it, you tend to have a houseguest
Many such references

He found out Damon was a rat after Leo and the black guy were killed because he already suspected Damon

blackpill: damon's character was sexually abused as a kid

Woah, by who though? Costello?

>gooks
>emotion
lmao

>(This can be associated with stress from his 2 jobs, or it could be he is gay idk)
DiCaprio knocked a babe up with his two jobs. Damon was def a fag.

they didnt like irish people

Actually he found out Matt Damon had 1/4 Vietnamese ancestry. He was just doing what he thought was necessary.

Infernal Affairs had a better ending.
This especially. We never get the sense that Sullivan was an irredeemable piece of shit, so when he dies it's not a "RAH RAH FUCK YEAH" moment for the audience, he just dies. He was groomed from adolescence to work for Costello, there's a very tragic element to that, but none of it was harped upon like it was in Infernal Affairs.

The real story is way more fascinating. Neither this or black mass did it any justice.

>FBI agent infiltrates Bulgers irish mob organization
>Bulger starts to talk to the FBI ratting out Italian family mobsters in New England.
>FBI agent starts to cooperate with Bulger and starts giving him advice on how to avoid getting caught.
>Bulger gets rackettering charges, and flees being on the run and hiding from the law for 16 years
>Gets caught in 2011 and is killed in prison in 2018 when placed in the general population.
>FBI probably did this so Bulger wouldn't talk about the inner workings and extent of FBI's involvement with mob bossess.

Real life is actually stranger than fiction

The film is obviously a comment on the banality of evil.

Both films have problems, and an amalgamation of each would have been something truly special. The love scene in The Departed was fucking laughable.

IA's isn't much better with that stilted and awkward hug.
But Sullivan isn't evil. He was just groomed. Even Infernal Affairs III did Inspector Lau, Sullivan's equivalent, far better: ending up catatonic from a suicide attempt.

ive heard that fleming was a informant long before bulger was

It's very strongly implied that he was sexually abused. Costello takes him. Under his wing at a young age, when we're shown he's an alterboy. Costello later takes the local priests to task about sexually abusing the local alterboys. When he's older, Sullivan spends a lot of time overcompensating, being aggressively and performatively homophobic, insisting that his cock is working overtime when it's clear that stress is causing sexual disfunction, etc.
