Shutter island

Post by WeedGuru_Flow »

Saw it yesterday, Scorsese movie,has leonardo Dicaprio in it.

A very very good movie, though it is 2 hours long and does take it's time to really get up to speed, the story itself is good, with some really nice twists to it, you know one of those movies that keeps you guessing right up till the end and then finishes in a way that just leaves you craving for more.

I can't really say too much about it without ruining or spoiling the movie, so all I can say is : do watch this marvelous piece.

9/10

Yeah the end can be pretty confusing, but I liked it, a lot of 'what the??' :)

I really wanted to see it, is it still in theaters, Martin Scorsese is one of my favorite directors... Taxi Driver and Raging Bull are films that cannot be unseen.

I really want to see it too.

I just hope that Scorsese didn't do to it what Eastwood did to Mystic River.

Reading the book really ruined the film for me, and I love Clint Eastwood, on both sides of the camera.

Scorsese has an excellent track record though...so I have hope.

I liked it. Very emo (I admit I teared up a little) but other than that great movie. What a twist at the end!

Awesome movie. I definitely didn't see the end coming, and dicaprio does a really damn good job in it.

Not a terrible movie. I sat down and watched it yesterday morning. I didn't know anything about the movie except it starred DiCaprio and was about an island of crazy criminals. I'll admit I had it figured out by the time he was had to change his wet clothes to the institutional whites. Leo's a great actor and fun to watch on the screen, even if the movie itself is only so-so. I'd give it a 6 out of 10.
