JUMP TO "OVERALL" FOR NON SPOILER SHORT REVEIW

Rating: 9/10 (12 January 2019)

Shutter Island:
The film starts with detective Teddy (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Chuck (Mark Ruffalo) in a ferry.
Starts rather wisely, but the background seems unrealistic and acting was alright; the movie goes on and it does amazing keeping you thrilled, curious which makes you want to follow it; I never got bored in it. Even though I didn't like visionary (from visionary I mean shots taken and then merged together); Martin's work with the motion picture is phenomen(t)al. It gets you into feels, makes you be with Teddy all through the story, like you're Teddy yourself!
The story was really good at hiding a lot of stuff, it planted clues and small things that no one would think that they're useful; but the owner of the place uses every single one of them in the climax. This is another part which Martin did a brilliant job getting you into feels with picture; it sent the audience enough feelings to trick people into Teddy being actually insane, and some other thought it's just a game and they're playing with Teddy.
From my point of view; like how you probably found out a few lines before, Teddy is sane; and they didn't succeed making him insane either; however, the story has planted both clues that Teddy is insane or sane, but I chose sane side; I'm not here to discuss if he's sane or not so I'm gonna continue criticising the rest of the movie.
The ending was short and simple, shown just with motion picture, but it left audience with an "I need more" feeling; yet it ended smartly anyway.
Overall, the story is amazing; thrilling, truly mysterious and keeps you going to catch up.
Martin Scorsese gets you into the movie's feels with motion picture; and cinema IS about motion picture; so he did a perfect job creating an atmosphere.
The score was good-great, wouldn't say completely great, nor amazing. But I still liked it.
There might've been some parts that felt unrealistic (like ferry scene's background) but they weren't much.
I didn't really like how Martin ordered the shots to be taken at times; specially when two people were having conversations; but throughout the movie I think it improved.
And for acting, I think it improved throughout the movie as well.
It's a must see movie; I recommend it to everyone 👍🏻
