The Departed was very interesting movie. There was, of course, a lot of cussing and a lot of violence, but overall it was a good movie! The movie began with 2 men graduating from the Massachusetts police academy. One man, William Costigan, was assigned to go undercover to work for the Irish mob boss Frank Costello. The other man, Colin Sullivan grew up idolizing Frank Costello and working for him since he was young. He went through the academy and graduated but is actually working as a rat for Frank Costello. Costello begins to smell a rat in his team (Costigan) and the police department thinks there is a rat on their team (Sullivan). Sullivan is assigned to find the rat on the police force which actually ended up being him. He ends up searching for the rat on Costello's team (Costigan). Costigan ends up getting killed by Sullivan who also killed Costello so he would not be given up as the rat on the police squad.
This movie was very different than the Italian mobster......
