I won't tell you the ending, but It's about the only bad thing about the movie. Its like Martin ran out of money and said, "We just gotta end this thing!". Other than that this is one of my favorite movies ever. Jack delivers an amazing performance, as does Leo Dicaprio. The quips that Mark Wahlberg let out are priceless! This is one of the few times that an all star cast actually delivers on its promise. If you are a fan of any of Scorsese's stuff then this shouldn't be any different. One of his best.

Answer for "why another blu ray release for this film?" question
Added 2/1/2010
Apparently the only reason is to have that nice academy award slip cover to look like the other newer Warner Home Video releases - the aspect ratio difference appears to be a typo, that wouldn't make much sense to change that. [...] has more if you want to read it.
Really great movie by the way - I'll buy the new one because of the nice cover, same price :)

When Jack Nicholson rules the hood...
Added 1/30/2010
All I can say is... wow.
Martin Scorsese's The Departed is an action movie that builds in intensity right through to the end. Two men, both products of the underbelly of Boston, end up going to police academy. One, Colin Sullivan (Matt Damon), flourishes, but remains beholden to crime boss Frank Costello (Jack Nicholson). The other, Billy Costigan (Leonardo DiCaprio), goes deep undercover to get the goods on Costello.
Their lives weave around each other, until eventually they find themselves actively searching for one another, with fatal consequences.
Jack Nicholson makes for a mean gangster, and transitions between a friendly "uncle-type" and an emotionless killer without missing a beat.
This is a movie that will have you wishing you owned stock in one of those fake blood companies prior to production. Be warned.
