Shutter Island


I felt a little cheated by the "twist" in Shutter Island, but overall it was a good movie. Shutter Island is a movie about two cops investigating a mental institution where apparently government sponsored experiments on humans take place, and the main character is trying to investigate. Thematically it makes sense to me in terms of Martin Scorsese's work because I do think it was an effective character study. DiCaprio's performance blew me away though. I think he's really one of the best actors working and this was one of his best performances as far as I'm concerned.
