The 100 Best Movies of the 2000s

9. The Departed
Released: 2006
Director: Martin Scorsese
Starring: Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jack Nicholson, Martin Sheen, Mark Wahlberg, Alec Baldwin
With source material as dope as the Hong Kong classic Infernal Affairs, Scorsese's take on the cop-gangster switcheroo could hardly fail. But with DiCaprio and Damon at their best—and Mark Wahlberg and Alec Baldwin stealing every scene they're in—the remake is even better than the O.G.
YOU AUGHTA KNOW:
According to imdb.com, this movie has the most uses of the word "fuck" (and its derivatives) to win the Best Picture Oscar. That's 237 fucking times, if you're counting.

This is a stupid list. I like Ron Burgundy but The Dark Knight should be at number 1
