The Good Shepherd

really gotta be in the mood to see something this long and this dramatic. One of the best movies i've seen, by far. I can't tell you how well Matt Damon plays his character, as in all his movies, he really delivers a great performance. Go watch this movie, seriously awsome. Won't be surprised to see it nominated for many awards.

How does this compare to the Departed? Would you put them in the same category?
