Yeah, I've not seen Internal Affair so I had no reference point. The Irish stuff was a little heavy-handed at times and, contrary to some, I thought Jack Nicholson was the wrong choice (it would've been an ideal role for Daniel Day-Lewis) and Mark Wahlberg's character was just silly. LDC really came into his own, though.
I'm curious to see what Scorsese does in his next film, The Irishman. Another Irish-themed gangster-film that apparently has DeNiro, Pacino and Pesci.
