02.18.15 | Infernal Affairs is much shorter and lighter compared to Departed. I saw Departed first, then Infernal Affairs and re-watched Departed after that. I felt that the remake simplified the characters and added unnecessary side plots instead, so it felt overblown and not as deep at the same time. Also, many scenes are mere copies of those in the original. On the other hand, Departed is technically more crafted in some aspects.
Many fans of Departed don't dig the Asian style of Infernal Affairs though, so I can't guarantee you'll like it. But if you do, be sure to check out the prequel and sequel, they are very worth a look. |
