There is always a strange slight offness for me when I see the original of a foreign movie that has been adapted if I've already seen the American adaptation. Where I watch just for the things that are truly different...

Anyway, for those who weren't aware, Infernal Affairs is the Chinese original that Scorsese adapted for The Departed. All the same players are there with the same set-up. A cop who is a mole in a gang and a gangster who is a mole in the police. A bit less of the romantic triangle stuff, but the acting is also a bit more low key and subtle...
