I'm surprised there is so much Departed distaste here. I thought that movie was absolutely stellar. I'll be fair and admit I haven't seen Infernal Affairs yet, but still I thought it was a quality movie.
But Shutter Island was abysmal. I wanted to enjoy that movie alot. But ugh. Oh well, I hated Mystic River as well, so maybe I just don't like Dennis Lehane stories. I think Scorsese can still put out interesting movies. I enjoyed The Aviator, Gangs, and Departed. But his former greatness is well and past.
As for multi-character/plot quality movies. I dunno, I have pretty good memories of Gosford Park. Though I don't know if I'd call that one a masterpiece.
