Infernal Affairs
What a great movie. Brilliant story telling, cinematography, acting, sound track - oh I really wish I’d seen this in the cinema.
I read with interest that Martin Scorsese is directing a remake called The Departed starring Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jack Nicholson, I dunno, I don’t hold much hope for that I haven’t really liked much Scorsese has done recently. Well, no, I did like Bringing Out The Dead I have to say, but Gangs of New York was a crime against celluloid.
Anyway, Infernal Affairs, go see.

Does exactly what it says on the (comic book) tin. Loved it. - Little Miss Sunshine

Very funny, disturbing (the beauty pageant) and completely messed up -- but in a good way. - Laputa: Castle in the Sky†
Story great, characterization a little on the weak side -- though the big robots are cool. - Porco Rosso
†
Stylish, funny, exciting. - Grave of the Fireflies†
Very sad, which was a little unexpected since I didn't know much about it before watching it. Can be a little too slow in places though, otherwise it's very good. - Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind†
The story can get a little dense at times what with the various factions, but still really enjoyable, inventive and engaging. - X-Men: The Last Stand

Opportunity, talent, money - all blown. Over 3 films X-Men has hinted of something great that could have been, this last one says "No, sorry - not going to happen". Bah.
I wholeheartedly agree about Infernal Affairs. Sometime I think you should really listen to me !
Infernal Affairs II (which I haven’t seen) is on Film Four this Friday, along with the original.
I really should pay attention in class.
I’ve now added In The Mood For Love to my rental list too, ahving read your original post on the subject.
