Pretty straightforward, but very well done. Acting was great- everything it has been advertised to be. Jennifer Hudson and Eddie Murphy both deserve their GG (and possible Oscar) wins.The fact that it's sitting on the 6.9-7.0 bubble on IMDb is an insult and probably comes from following on the heels of Ray and Walk the Line (since 10.2% gave it a 1 which is higher than normal for any average movie - fellow contenders: Babel at less than 4% and Little Miss Sunshine, The Departed, and The Queen all less than 2%). It does have an impressive 80% on Rottentomatoes, so that's saying something.
Bottom line - The Departed is still the best movie of the year.
