Watched this movie last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. So many twists and turns. Leonardo DiCaprio is such a good actor in whatever he turns his hand to. It was very atmospheric and the setting was dark and creepy. The ending was mind blowing and I can't wait to watch it again. Anyone else seen it?

No & don't plan on it! I heard all about it from someone I know who has seen it & the person said it's a bad movie. I also don't like Leo at all. BLECH! [Edited content. - McG] Reply #7. Sep 08 10, 11:10 AM |

Well, if you wish to avoid a movie based upon the word of someone else, it's up to you. The movie does require you to pay attention. Reply #8. Sep 08 10, 11:37 AM |

Nah, I usually don't go by what other people say about movies because I like to form my own opinion. However, I have heard this from more than 1 person & I saw a trailer for the movie & it doesn't appeal to me. Like I said, I do not like Leo so I avoid his movies! Reply #9. Sep 09 10, 12:32 AM |

I thought the movie tried too hard to keep people engaged. Being John Malkovich was good, this movie was just confusing. Not one of Leonardo's good movies. Inception is a lot better. Reply #10. Sep 09 10, 1:44 AM |

I saw Shutter Island recently and I thought it was a good picture. Not truly great but good and worth watching. I found that the trailers were billing it like a horror movie. I didn't think for a minute it was scary, although when the thing unravels at the end, some may find it disturbing. I was surprised to see Max Von Sydow. I thought he was dead. Reply #11.

Surpisingly I enjoyed this movie as I am not a big Decaprio fan. Great ending and twists and turns through out. Reply #12. Dec 15 14, 1:50 PM |

I loved this movie so much I bought it. I have watched it 3 times so far. It's just as good each time. Reply #13. Dec 16 14, 11:01 PM |

I recently got the chance to see this movie for free so I decided to watch it. My initial reactions were correct & I should have heeded my own advice from 2010! One of the worst movies I have ever seen & 2 hours of my life wasted & I will not get back! I am so glad that I didn't actually pay money to see this awful movie! Reply #14. Dec 19 14, 9:19 PM |

Shutter Island was a superb novel (Dennis Lehane), and a lousy movie Reply #15. Dec 20 14, 10:53 AM |

Paul, I agree. The book kept my attention while the movie didn't. Reply #16. Dec 20 14, 12:28 PM |

I've never seen this movie, I'm not a big Leonardo fan. I think I will check this one out, however. The premise seems intriguing. Reply #17. Dec 22 14, 4:17 PM |

I purchased the movie for 4.99 last night during my almost at the last minute finishing up of my Christmas shopping. It's a gift for myself. I'll probably watch it in the next week or so. I'll give you my review after I do! Reply #18. Dec 23 14, 1:25 AM |

You'll enjoy it rockinsteve. Don't listen to all the people who don't like Leonardo and concentrate on the story. Reply #19. Dec 25 14, 7:15 AM |

That wasn't really the reason I didn't care for this movie, because of who was in it. Even though I don't really like Leonardo, I decided to watch it, anyway. I like to judge movies for myself. I didn't like it because I don't care for movies with all of those flashbacks & I didn't really like the plot for the whole film. Leonardo did a good job with what he was given. RockinSteve should see this movie if he chooses to, don't listen to what other people say about it! Everyone has their own likes & dislikes & people should judge for themselves if they like a film or not. He may end up liking it. I have read reviews on different movies in the past & movies that people said were horrible, I saw those same movies & ended up loving them! Vice versa, too. This is why I like to form my own opinion on movies. Happy viewing, RockinSteve! :) Reply #20. Dec 25 14, 1:48 PM |
