Shutter Island
Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo) are summoned to a remote and barren island off the cost of Massachusetts to investigate the mysterious disappearance of a murderess from the island's fortress-like hospital for the criminally insane.
You know, if you're like me and see so many many movies in your life, then chances are you'll probably know the twist in the ending. I sure did with like 20 minutes into the film. No doubt that this is Martin Scorsese back to his artistic and visual self shown in previous works like the remake of Cape Fear. The cinematography is beautiful and the haunting/creepy factor has been shot up to 10. The cast has done a solid job and the plotline is done at a steady pace. As for the twist, it is one factor if the audience will actually buy into that. For me, I didn't buy it at all and allows me to see the entire film with questionable aspects. However it is a nice looking thriller that you wouldn't mind checking out.
3 and a half out of 5 stars
