Shutter Island

Nice movie

This was a random thing. We didn't even know the schedule and I was just wearing a random shirt and shorts. I just wanted to drink mango shake but then we randomly decided to go to eastwood and check the schedule. We were supposed to watch Diary of a Wimpy Kid but since Shutter Island's showing, then Shutter Island it is. But then wearing my "pambahay" outfit didn't really help since I saw 2 people from AC. grrrrrr. When I dress up, I don't see anyone I know but when I'm not properly dressed and I look like a mess, suddenly all these people come up to me and say hi. Note to self: always dress …

Mind-tripping psychological-thriller from Martin Scorsese, a bit of a change-up for him, with great performances all around of course including DiCaprio and Kingsley. This was my first viewing as I had procrastinated watching this for whatever reason, but found it highly entertaining with amazing, foreboding atmosphere. **4.5/5**

Don't you get it? You're a rat in a maze. US Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) travels to an island asylum facility for the criminally insane with his newly assigned partner Chuck Aule (Mark Ruffalo). Their reason for being at Ashecliff Hospital is to investigate the mysterious disappearance of murderess Rachel Solando. But Teddy has another issue to deal with at Ashecliff, namely a meeting with Andrew Laeddis (Elias Koteas), the man he believes responsible for the death of his wife (Michelle Williams). Nothing is what it seems at the facility though, and the further Teddy & Chuck i…

A US federal Marshal is sent on to investigate a missing patient on an isolated asylum called The Shutter Island. What he’s about to uncover will question him and his true identity. Quite exclusive and one of those storyline where you can’t lose your concentration for even a minute. Paradox plot, loved it through and through. This is pretty unusual but loved the soundtracks in the background helping in the foundation of suspense. Definitely another Scorsese masterpiece. A must watch. Follow us on Instagram: @flixxflyy

Good suspense and mystery, although a bit too reliant on hallucinations, and the ending could have been better.

**_Leonardo DiCaprio’s trip to Fantasy Island_** In 1954, two US Marshals (DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo) are sent to an island off the coast of Massachusetts to investigate the disappearance of a patient from the asylum for the criminally insane located there. The lead detective suspects something really fishy going on. "Shutter Island" (2010) is like a combination of “The Shawshank Redemption” and “A Beautiful Mind” with a little “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.” Being helmed by Scorsese, it’s a top-notch production with a stellar cast, including the likes of Ben Kingsley, Max von Sydow, …

Shutter Island deserves all the praise for being one of those films that stays with you long after the credits roll. Martin Scorsese dives into the psychological thriller genre with precision, creating an atmosphere that’s equal parts eerie and thought-provoking. Leonardo DiCaprio absolutely nails it as Teddy Daniels, a U.S. Marshal investigating the disappearance of a patient from Ashecliffe Hospital. His performance is raw, vulnerable, and perfectly captures the gradual unraveling of Teddy’s psyche. Mark Ruffalo as his partner Chuck adds a subtle balance to the chaos, making their partner…

Two US Marshals arrive at a remote island sanatorium to investigate the disappearance of one of it’s patients. “Teddy” (Leonardo Di Caprio) is a confident, bullish man who has only recently returned from combat duty in Germany at the end of the war, whilst his partner “Chuck” (Mark Ruffalo) is a long-term beat cop. The place has it’s own fairly heft security arrangements and neither “Dr. Cawley” (Sir Ben Kingsley) nor his enigmatic consulting physician “Dr. Naehring” (Max Von Sydow) have much time for his heavy-handed demands. Quite swiftly, their work begins to unveil some sinister undercurre…

Excellent movie, was a bit morbid though some scenes may affect sensitive viewers as they say and even though I can handle zombies and sci-fi it's different when you know this stuff is based on reality. Disturbing, but they did it tastefully and always a good reminder while sci-fi our monsters are creatures from outer space the reality is that the real monsters are far scarier and more likely our next-door neighbors! Great movie twist was a bit obvious, but fun to watch the plot unfold.
