Report to the Commissioner is another example that has flawed characters staged in the under belly of the narco squad. This film failed to get lasting attention. Perhaps you can add some text as to why it ended up in the file room.
William DeFoe is a master villain. The film is memorable bad guy vs bad fed.
French Connection is a favorite NYPD film. Doyle portrays real life Detective Eddy Egan who has a bit Part as Doyle’s boss. Unforgettable car chase better than Bullet.
The Departed by far fits into the realm elite Cops vs gangsters. Watching Martin Sheen being dropped out the window was like watching a train wreck. The casting was off the charts. Staged in Boston was icing on the cake. The elevator scene is epic. The good guy goes down in flames. The ending had a special touch for the good vs the corrupt cop.

What’s not to like?
If you can find it, check out Infernal Affairs -- the original movie The Departed was based on. Hong Kong movie. Just as good.
With LAPD cops like Billy Baldwin & Richard Gere?
How about: The Year of the Dragon with Micky Rourke ?
Ok. Infernal Affair 2002
