11) The Departed (2006)
This is a crime thriller film by Martin Scorsese in which an undercover cop goes to the very heart of a Boston crime syndicate at a time when there also happens to be a police mole trying to reach his actual identity. From this point onwards, the movie plunges into matters concerning loyalty, deception, and the blurred moralities of being either a law enforcer or a part of organized crime.
A star-studded cast consisting of Leonardo DiCaprio and Jack Nicholson gives intense performances for the twisting plot. The movie leads to a surprising finale, an analysis of the repercussions of living a life of double deception.
