Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
A new American crime classic from the legendary Martin Scorsese, whose talent shines here on its highest beams.

Kirk Honeycutt
A ferociously entertaining film.

David Ansen
The Departed is Scorsese's most purely enjoyable movie in years. But it's not for the faint of heart. It's rude, bleak, violent and defiantly un-PC. But if you doubt that it's also OK to laugh throughout this rat's nest of paranoia, deceit and bloodshed, keep your eyes on the final frames. Scorsese's parting shot is an uncharacteristic, but well-earned, wink.

James Berardinelli
The original film was gritty and entertaining ("Infernal Affairs"); the new version is a masterpiece - the best effort Scorsese has brought to the screen since "Goodfellas."

Premiere
Glenn Kenny
A triumphant revisiting of territory in which Scorsese is an unchallenged master -- the crime drama.
