Shutter Island is definitely a movie worth watching! The noteworthy actors in the movie did a great job at portraying their roles. Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a U.S. Marshal assigned to investigate the disappearance of a patient at a mental hospital for the criminally insane. Daniels soon suspects and questions the hospital and his partner because of their lack of help in the investigation. Daniels believes that they have lured him onto the Island as part of a twisted plot. After a hurricane hits Shutter Island there is a loss of communication and that is when Daniels fears for his own sanity, has extreme hallucinations and dreams that seem lifelike, and the movie begins to unravel bits and pieces to lead to the rest of this psychological thriller. Not to mention the big surprise at the end that catches everyone off guard makes the movie worthwhile.
At first viewers do not know what kind of movie to expect, whether it is a thriller or a horror movie. Shutter Island will get you going with all the mystery it contains. As the movie progresses, the viewer still is clueless as to what is happening or going to happen, however, all the suspense will keep you yearning for more.

I agree with you that the viewers will not know what to expect. When i went to see the movie i thought Shutter Island was going to be a horror film , but as i watched the movie i realized it was more of a twisted confusing mystery. The movie was very confusing , but i think that was the best part about the film. Your review of the movie is exactly how i would describe this film.
ReplyDeleteGreat movie review! Your descriptions make me want to add it to my "movies to watch" list. I have always enjoyed movies that keep you clueless until the very end. Everytime I re-watch a movie like this I pick up clues that I wouldn't have noticed unless I already knew the ending. Hopefully this movie has similar traits.
ReplyDeleteHaha wanted to see this movie for awhile. Mainly cause I think decaprio is decent and its a horror movie. To bad i cant download it since FGCU is blocking torrents nowadays. Good review.
ReplyDeleteYour movie review is very good; it is exactly how I would describe it! You got my attention in the descriptions you used. I went and saw this movie thinking I wasn't going to like it too much but it was pretty good. I thought the movie was very confusing and I will probably have to see it one more time so I can understand it all the way. I think that making the movie confusing and making you think made the movie what it was and made was a good twist.
ReplyDeleteI Haven't seen Shutter Island, but the trailer definitely makes me want to! I hate scary movies but Shutter Island seems like it's more of a mysterious suspenseful movie, which makes me interested. You did an excellent job reviewing this movie, now I need to go see it!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Caroline ... "Shudder" Island!
