Goodfellas, Casino, The Departed, yeah, we all wish Martin Scorsese would just keep making wiseguy movies. But hey, the guy makes some pretty solid dramas as well. Yet again, he has partnered up with Leonardo Dicaprio for Shutter Island. A mystery about an escaped murderess. O, and I think DiCaprio is going insane, again.
The Story:
Back in 1954, two US marshals (Teddy and Chuck) investigate the vague disappearance of a patient (Rachel) from a hospital for the criminally and mentally insane on an island in Massachusetts. They run into unexpected trouble when they read a note which Rachel left ("Who is 67") and realize that there's another (unknown to them) prisoner on the island. However, they're deceived multiple times by everyone else on the island. They seem to have known all the time. A hurricane hits and an inmate riot traps them on the island. Soon, a cryptic warning tells them that there's no escape at all.
