    I agree, the departed is a great movie but its a remake!

    I.A sequels where pretty good too, so we many see another departed film.

    Harsh Times: 7.5/10; Great movie Christian Bale was great in it, Freddy Rodriguez wasn't bad either. Bale is a self destructing motherfucker.

    Bale has got to be the most consistent actor in recent times!

    I aint seen the movie yet so I cant judge, but there is no doubting his CV

    From empire of the sun to American psycho, that’s pretty versatile.

    I like Bale as an actor, but I somewhat agree with this.

    i like bale as well, but he has two emotions, real cool where he looks like hes tryna drink a shake from a coffee stirring straw, and he has the angry bale where he looks like hes a vampire and his mouth is crookit and he looks like hes gonna spit

    Tom Cruise is the most consistant actor.

    Rented Casino Royale the latest Bond movie. I like this one though becaue its the prequel to the James Bond. Shows when Bond was just starting He shows he is more harder.cold blooded and cocky.

    The first chase scene is crazy.
    8/10

    It wasnt a prequal. It was just a start of a new James Bond. Before this movie, it seemed as though 007 aka James Bond was one person. Now its almost like anyone can get promoted to 007 status. you just have to be good enough.

    I just saw blades of glory. Alot better than I thought. Just as good as Taladega Nights, which means it's watchable in theaters.

    I finally watched The Departed. Pretty good movie but not even close to the best work from Scorcesse.

    He's one of them. It always amazes me how many people diss the guy but like you say he's always been consistent. I hope you meant consistently good as opposed to consistently bad.

    One of the reasons I liked it so much. It's like they realisticized the whole series. Took out a lot of the usual humor that was consistent in the others, such as Q who was always a nice humorous guy and they replaced him with M who could be a bit bitchy and mean which is alot more in tuned to most peoples bosses.

    Yeah but they didnt really replace Q with M. M and Q have always been there together. Q gets Bond his gadgets. M is the boss. I dont know why they didnt have Q in there. I didnt like the new Q. Its too bad the old one died. I am sure they will bring Q back for the next one.

    lb is correct.
    Craig's Bond is a total bad-ass - he fucks people up. Badly.
    'Casino Royal' had no goofy one-liners, no stupid gadgetry and a good villain in Le Chiffre.
    I give it 8/10.

    Awesome. I really didn't think it would be any good, but I haven't seen a comedy in a long time that had any rewatchability. This one does.

    I saw it about a week ago. It was watchable, but like massacure said, it had no point to it.
