Shutter Island

This is looks very good, thanks for posting this, I hadn't heard of it till now.hope it will be good

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutter_Island_%28film%29

Directed by Martin Scorsese and staring Leo Dicaprio. Based on the book Shutter Island.

Looks really good to me, this is definitely one I think I am going to watch then run out and read.

Wow, I actually just read it was pushed back from October 2nd to Mid-February of next year..lame.

Shame, I've been looking forwards to it. The book is excellent, so really like to see how they have put it onto film. Going by the trailer it looks similar, no big changes.

But, already a topic on it:

I've read the book, and I'm happy with the end of it, so hopefully they will keep it in the film.

I'm pissed that this movie got delayed. I was really looking forward to seeing it a lot sooner.

Just got back from seeing this; really dug it. Sure the reveal is slightly anticlimactic, but the the last line/moment in the film kind of redeems it imo. And the fact that the whole movie looks completely gorgeous, the acting is great all across the board, the atmosphere is almost tangible. Really a fun, disturbing, enjoyable movie. Best 2010 film I've seen thus far.

Interesting that it has a unique visual style because that's not something I usually associate with Scorcese. He uses unique camera techniques but usually avoids stylistic visuals. I've never read the book though so don't know if that's a reflection of it.

Still can't wait to see it though.

🙂 Hate to be the one to spoil the party......but from what K.Diddy has heard and read....it's meant to suck balls......I will see it anyway though,when it comes out on dvd

It certainly does NOT suck balls. You're missing out, it's a really enjoyable movie.

🙂 I'm only repeating What I have heard,so dont hold it against me,when I eventually see it, I will revive the thread and give my own opinion

totally enjoyed this movie. never reading the book before watching this is probably a plus.

Yeah movie wasn't bad. Ending was goofy, didn't help that I guessed it at the beginning of the movie half in jest. Still enjoyable, though.

I can't really think of any other way they could've ended it. The "twist" kind of justified everything that preceded it, but yeah it was a tad predictable. Anyway, like I said, the last moment in the film AFTER the twist is what solidified this as a quality flick for me.

From the sound of the plot of the film, they have changed it slightly compared to the ending of the book. Book is worth reading.

The twist is still the same though, just after it.

scorcese/dicaprio that's not organized crime?

makes the film interesting already. and dicaprio's charrie, even from the trailer alone, looks very different from most of his roles to date...

[what? he doesn't know what's going on? what? he's not controlling things?]

definite dvd rental for me.

just got back from seeing this.. i was disappointed , it was too easy to figure out.. here's hoping inception is much better

Inception is directed by someone else.

I'm thinking MAYBE he's linking the two because they both star DiCaprio? 😬

But yeah it doesn't make much sense, Shutter Island and Inception are undoubtedly going to be much different films and like MP said, by different directors.

it makes perfect sense to me as I did not care much for Shutter Island but I hope that Inception which is a much better film
