IMO..no.

Most overrated flick together with Pan's Labyrinth. Both were great, but overrated imo.

No, The Lives of Others did. 

And yes, The Departed was my 3rd favorite of the year (2nd being Pan's Labyrinth, 1st being Children of Men), and it deserves this.  Personally I think Children of Men should have been nominated over Babel (which was alright but not amazing).  Anyway congrats to Marty and The Departed...it's an incredibly awesome movie.

The Departed was a fantastic movie, as were Little Miss Sunshine and Letters from Iwo Jima. One of those three won, so I am very happy.

I thought Children of Men could have been better, the story was good, but i hated how they ended the movie. And Pans Labyrinth is overrated , IMO

No, he's not kidding you, he's having his opinion. Besides, I agree with him...the definate most overrated flick of 2006 imo.

I'm actually glad it didn't win best foreign film.

i haven't seen it yet, but i want to. out of the ones i've seen, little miss sunshine was the best, but i wouldn't be surprised if the departed is better. united 93 should have been nominated though, as that's the best movie i've seen all year.

I think i was jsut expecting better, I was not planning on seeing it but everyone was saying how awesome and amazing it was and the reviews were really good for it. So i decided to see it, and in my opinion, i was just expecting better, and it was not as good as I thought it was going to be.

It's the beginning of the end for films when an unnecessary remake wins an Oscar.
