The Departed (2006) — 

This is by far the best movie that I have seen lately!  In fact, my hubby and I watched it at the theater when it first debuted and rented it through blockbuster.com to watch it at home again recently!  He knew how much I loved it.  I was literally blown away by all the twists and action, particularly near the end ... if you've seen it, you know what I'm talking about.

First Martin Sheen takes a "dive" and then I was feeling pretty bad and SURPRISED about Leonardo -- even the second time, "OMG, OMG ..."  It reminded me of another movie with Nicholson and Pacino one night at an airport behind a building where there's that unexpected ending ... I guess there are just those male actors that you don't like seeing "blown away" in any movies.

Well, I thought the movie was truly remarkable and I'm a chic into chic flicks of all things!
