Shutter Island
Something just doesn’t seem right on Shutter Island as we follow the story of a U.S. Marshall (Leonardo DiCaprio) investigating the mystery of a missing patient. Suspicion, paranoia, and hallucinations build as he spends time amongst the crazies in this loony bin for the criminally insane. Director Martin Scorsese crafts a gorgeous looking film for your eyes to drink in. He does wonders with smoke and water. This psychological thriller (2 hr 18 min) is creepy, eerie, and haunting. It will keep you off balanced as the ghosts of the island are searched out. Those afraid of heights and rats may want to avoid certain scenes.
Alien gives it 3 "why are you all wet, baby" stars out of 4.
