Best of Its Genre

Rating: 9/10 (5 March 2014)

Martin Scorsese is a freaking genius. A GENIUS I TELL YOU! Its like he pay attention to every detail even minor ones with great care. This movie is one of the best in its genre. I'll even say that its one of the best suspense thriller of all-time.
Visually its intriguing, its simplistic, the cast is amazing (Leonardo DiCaprio was epic! Give this man an Oscar already!!!) and overall its simply breathtaking. The flow of the story is fluent and quite simplistic. The ending is something you won't see coming. There is no cheap thrills or below average scares in this movie, but it will keep you at the edge of your seat.
As you may have known the Horror/Thriller genre is dying. Its not even scary nowadays. With all the gore, the naked women and hours and hours of sex makes it look more like a pornographic movies with blood and body parts thrown in it. There is no genuine horror or thrill in it these days. Shutter Island gives you none of that. Its a genuine Horror/Thriller movie with genuine horror and thrill. That's why I love this movie so much.
Overall, this movie is a masterpiece. The Leo-Scorsese combination doesn't disappoint. These two are meant to work together. If you haven't watched it already, give it a go, and prepare your mind to be blown away.
RATING: 9/10
