The best ending to the best story

Rating: 10/10 (19 August 2018)

When you begin to watch this movie, it seems like a detective noir on a lonely island, yet there is more to this than meets the eye. Every detail that the pair of detectives find is in fact part of the story and not just some scrabblings of a mentally sick pacient. All of this culminates into the revelation of the century, in the lighthouse, where everything that made sense is brutally murdered and replaced by a story that couldn't have been predicted, yet so simple and effective. Beside the story, the effects are all over the place offering us the real atmosphere of a rainy forest on an island; the acting is pristine, with Ruffalo, Kingsley and DiCaprio giving some of their best perfomances. In my opinion, this is one of the best movies of his genre in the last 15 years.
