Basically The bad guy (Caprio) is the good guy undercover and the good guy is the bad guy (informant/mole/wanker/whatever). They don't know about each other as Caprio is properly secret and obviously a dirty cop (Damon) can't be public about it. So Caprio is trying to stitch up Nicholson and get the mobs police contact while Damon is tryin to get proof for Nicholson of Caprio being a rat. So when Caprio's team get pretty much wiped out nobody really knows who he is till Whalberg finds out. By which point I think the Caprio was already shot in the head at the bottom of the lift. So Whalberg off's the Rat (MATT DAMON!).

That probably made it worse if it did sorry. Just watch it again.

The weaving in of the fact they are both shagging the same woman was probably only there for females in the audience to make em feel sorry for Caprio and hate Damon but hey ho, it works alright when Caprio sends her that tape. Makes her seem a little less pointless to the plot.

Anyway, great film.
