Great film, if you've seen The Departed still give the HK original a watch. Comparing the two endings (they're not so similar!) you can see the differences in philosophy between two cultures. The beginning of this film kind of sets the mood for what type of belief this movie is built on. But even if you're not interested in that kind of stuff, this is just an awesome action thriller, period.

Gripping story with a great plot and full of twists. Tony Leung is amazing with his performance. I believe this movie is superior to the American remake known as The Departed.

This movie has different ending for Hongkong version & Chinese version. If we decide to watch only one Internal Affairs movie, the ending of Chinese version is more satisfied. However, if we choose continue with its sequel (part III), we better watch the Hongkong version. For me, I coincidentally have the Chinese version, in which it doesn't have english subtitles. But in my opinion, it's still a great movie. Reading the whole story from internet is enough for me to understand the movie's plot.
