Why do people hate on a movie JUST BECAUSE it's a remake? While it's true that most remakes don't turn out as good as their originals, its completely wrong to make that assumption 100% of the time. I've seen this movie as well as The Departed and I must say the latter's story was fleshed out a bit more and believable. Don't get me wrong, this movie deserves all the praise it received, but the remake took its story and made subtle improvements to its betterment. All this "watch this and not the remake" talk is just nonsense.

A seriously refreshing police thriller that cranks up the tension to the max. There's no overblown gunplay or buddy cop crap here, this baby is tight as a drum and will have your nails down to the quick. Superb performances, a tight script and tense direction make this a winner in every department. Pick it up if you can, it's fantastic.

An incredible crime-thriller, with an intense, perfectly-paced, well-thought out plot that's thoroughly gripping due to the incredible character dynamic between the two leads, each giving excellent performances.

I cannot find a single review that doesn't compare this to the American remake 'Departed' by Martin Scorsese which is one of my favourite movies of all time. So fuck it I'll compare it too.

First of all, the style of this movie is definitely not for me, the way they build up tension using an elec More

Beginning with an immediate lob into both cheese and action, I was caught off guard and genuinely wondered whether I was watching the same movie as everyone else...because I really wasn't liking the 80s commercial-type editing and the horrific use of music, but despite these two aspects not nece More

‘Infernal Affairs’ is a Hong Kong crime drama, which Hollywood director Martin Scorsese later remade as ‘The Departed’ in 2006. The mark of a great film is being able to enjoy it without understanding the spoken language, which requires the story and acting to be top-notch. I watched ‘Infe More

Solid Hong Kong action-thriller with good performances and fine direction. I do think The Departed did better with connecting the plot and character development (particularly between the undercover cop and psychiatrist). Also thought The Departed was more suspenseful. But that said, Infernal Affairs More
