1346 - Shutter Island


This was an incredible mind-fuck of a film, and I'm going to keep this extremely short as not to try and give anything away. This is a very different film for Scorsese, and one would bet that he signed up for it almost due to the dream/fantasy sequences alone. He doesn't some beautifully inspired work in those moments.
So I won't say too much other than it's a film that demands your attention and concentration. Not my favorite Scorsese by any means, but worth checking out for sure. Some really nice, smart, harsh twists and turns.
