The Departed (2006)

 

This movie was watched on December 29th 2023.

I am not going to lie I did not realize how it started the cast was for this movie and it was a surprise to see Anthony Anderson in the movie as well.

I really love Jack Nicholson in this role.

I will like to say though I think the flip phone thing was getting annoying after a little while the only issue I had with this movie also is it played like I was reading an audiobook.

Leonardo DiCaprio was really good in this role as well so with Mark Wahlberg and Matt Damon and everybody else did well with their roles as well.

This is a very good movie and I will watch it again sometime in the future so I do recommend everybody to watch it at least once in their life and I would give the movie a solid 8 out of 10 or 3 out of 5 stars.

And I will see you all in the next review

The Hurt Locker (2008)

 I watched this movie on December 20th 2023

ive been wanting to watch this movie for the longest time and now finally have the chance to watch it for the first time.

I would definitely like to say first that Jeremy Renner and Anthony Mackie were perfect for these roles.

It's so astonishing to see what our military goes through on a daily basis and I think this movie shows it off perfectly of what they go through everyday.

The cinematography is very well done and executed. The rest of the cast of the movie also did an amazing job and with the cinematography I think this was the best way to shoot the movie and I don't think any other way would have worked in my opinion.

This is one of the better military movies in my opinion but I do feel I would only watch this movie once every blue moon even though it is really good.

I also like how deep the personal stories go as well because it shows it we are all human and I really like that aspect of the movie.

So in the end I would probably give this movie a solid 8 out of 10 or 4 out of 5 stars and I will see you all in the next review
