The Depahted.
Matt Damon plays a "Southie" mole in the Massachusetts State Police (the "Staties"); DiCaprio plays a Southie Statie deep undercover among Southie gangsters run by Jack Nicholson. Not a character played by Jack Nicholson, as far as I could tell, but by Jack himself.
High Concept? Think "Good Will Hunting" meets "Reservoir Dogs." But with even more blood. And the characters all drop their "r"s.
The best thing in the movie is Mark Wahlberg playing a character who is supposed to be a cop or something, but whose job appears to be to drive every other character into a frothing rage with inappropriate insults taken to extremes.
Example:
DiCaprio: Thanks fah meeting me, Sa(r)ge.. I'm sca(r)ed Jack Nicholson is gonna kill me, pa(r)k my ca(r).
Wahlberg: #&(%! your mother. I'm going to let them gut you and then I'll #&$! your dead %$^*!.
DiCaprio: What's you(r) problem? I wo(r)k fo(r) you. I need your help.
Wahlberg: Are you listening to me, #&$!*? I'm too tired to help you after all the $(*%!@ your sister %$*#! $^^(#!$ on %^(!@ and $^*&!)#. Oh, and ^$^&)(*&@!.
DiCaprio: ?
Not a bad movie.
