The Shutter Island review has found itself as the most popular article on the Statesman’s website. Perhaps that means
students are interested in seeing this movie… but I should mention I don’t give away any spoilers this time! Scorsese’s film is a mind-bender, and seeing as how I’m still trying to figure out the ending, I really want you to be surprised. If you’re not into scary movies, don’t worry, this film isn’t scary. There is perhaps one “jump out of your seat” moment, and that’s just because it’s a darker film, literally. I do NOT do scary movies, but I braved the late viewing to see Shutter Island, and I was glad. It turned out to be a thriller and kept my mind engaged.
I didn’t pick up on any of the clues, which made the experience that much more intriguing. If you see the film, I’d love to know your thoughts on the ending!
