What you get with Shutter Island is an excellent film based on an excellent story. Martin Scorsese made a movie with a rhythm that holds its audience from the start to the end. There is at times a blur line separating dream from reality and a thread of questions and answers which runs through the whole film.
It is also one of the few films where the director puts the tag line of the play at the end instead of the beginning: “This institution makes you wonder what is better: to live like a monster or die like a good man?”
My rating: 09/10
