I absofuckinglutely LOVE the cast in Infernal Affairs I, II, III, and the Departed; I mean, come on they are all really really dreamy. But the story line, yes I know the Departed borrowed the story of Infernal Affairs, there are just some tension lacking in the Departed somehow.
In the Departed
The life, the unfair life was not presented. The good guy was not bad enough and the bad guy... just not bad enough for you to love. It was a clear line between good and evil, you can tell from the beginning that who's the hero and who is the tramp. You know it's just another story about the hero sacrificed himself. And the bad guy, the mole in the police department, he is just try to be bad. He makes you hate him, dislike him, there is nothing in him that is likable. Maybe not the part when he's with the shrink, but he is just a rat and you know it from the beginning.
In the Infernal Affairs I, II, and IIIGood guy was just like one of the criminals, he just sniff all the cocaine, he beats the crap out of others, he went in and out of the jail. He had way cooler way to leak the informations to the police, the Morse code. And the bad guy, he just seemed like the great guy next door. He busted some drug dealing, he is a hard worker, he is a man trying to build his family, he is trying to be one of the good guys. He is a... surviver, a higher class of rat, he showed that there is justices, but it won't come until... the bad guy is tired of himself.
I like the tension and the emotional "torture" that hunts you. I like the fact that it's more like real life, the bad guy is the one who managed to go though everything. I love those quotes they showed in the end of each Infernal Affairs, I'm not Buddhist, but they are some good quotes to remember for life. I like how they curst Other then all this great things about this serious of movies, I love the gorgeous faces in all those films. ;)
